Why Choose Underfloor Heating?
This form of heating is currently enjoying a boom in popularity, but it’s really nothing new. The Romans first introduced it to Britain in the first century BC and it has has gone in and out of fashion over the intervening centuries.
Underfloor heating for London offers a perfect way to heat your home or workplace without using radiators. Liquid Screed Direct use an underfloor heating system that is compatible with condensing boiler systems, but it provides greater energy efficiency than when using wall mounted heat sources.
An underfloor heating installation uses a combination of water pipes and liquid screed, beneath the floor, to gently heat the air above. The even distribution of the heat, effectively conducted via the screed compound, ensures that ‘cold spots’ are eradicated, and an average temperature between 20-24 degrees centigrade at head height can easily be maintained.
Is Liquid Screed Better Than Traditional Screed for Underfloor Heating?
Traditional screed is still used by some underfloor heating installers but a high degree of skill is required to ensure both the correct consistncy of the mix, and its even distribution across the water pipes. Traditional screed is mixed by hand and each mix will be slighly different, according to the environmental conditions. If the mix is even slighly wrong this could cause problems with cracking, shrinking and poor thermal conductivity.
Liquid screed, by contrast, is an advanced flooring system that provides a standard mix and an ideal consistency for pouring and covering hot water pipes. The liquid consistency eradicates the potential for voids in the screed layer, and this optimises the conditions for thermal conductivity. Installing liquid screed is fast, efficient and accurate, and the drying times are far quicker than with traditional screed.
What are the Advantages of Liquid Screed?
Speed – liquid screed can be pumped and installed up to ten times faster than traditional screed.
Finish – the standardisation of the mix cuts out the potential for errors and guarantees a perfect finish every time. The surface regularity easily achieves SR2 finish as described in BS8204.
Application – liquid screed is light and flexible to work with, making it easier to apply and quicker to dry.
Uses – liquid screed’s guaranteed flawless finish makes it the perfect foundation for your flooring. It is also the preferred screed for underfoor heating due to its ability to flow around water pipes and eradicate voids.
Health & Safety – liquid screed is non-combustible (tested to BS476, Part 4), and is protein free which ensures that harmful bacteria cannot be harboured.
Is Retrofit Underfloor Heating Possible for Older Houses?
Buxton Flow Screeds now has an innovative UFH solution which is ideal for older properties. Low profile underfloor heating is a lightweight system which is extremely quick and easy to install. The major advantage for homeowners, though, is that there’s no need to excavate the flooring.
Low profile heating is made up of thin, lightweight boards with water pipes integrated into their design. They can easily be fitted above or below the existing floor, adding only 15mm-68mm to the flooring. This minimises the need to adapt skirting boards, or doors, whilst providing all the benefits of underfloor heating.
Underfloor Heating is Eco-Friendly
The use of complex, high quality pipes in an underfloor heating installation provides the benefit of lowering energy consumption as the result of lowering the water temperature required. Liquid screed is a product with a range of ‘green’ credentials; recycled materials are used in its manufacture, and its flowing properties which heightens thermal efficiency and lowers energy usage.
