FAQ's
How fast does rapid underfloor heating warm up?
Most systems heat the floor surface in 20–30 minutes, depending on the floor covering and insulation.
Is it suitable for old homes?
Yes. It’s ideal for retrofit projects because it doesn’t require deep screeds or high floor buildup.
What’s the difference between this and standard UFH?
Rapid response systems are lighter, thinner, and have quicker thermal response times than screed-based systems.
Can I use it under wood or vinyl?
Yes. We adjust the temperature and recommend specific panel types for each flooring material.
Is it more expensive than traditional UFH?
Initial material costs can be slightly higher, but installation is quicker and energy savings are significant.
