Underfloor Heating.
My wife wants to install underfloor heating underneath cermic tiles in our
new Kitchen and planned conservatory. The product she has seen is Warmup
http://www.warmup.com
Does anyone have any advice for on underfloor heating or experience (running
costs, effectiveness etc) of Warm up's products or indeed any other
offerings. The kitchen will be some 3*4 metres and the consevatory 3*3.6
meters.
Thanks in advance

If you have central heating, you should probably look to running
water based underfloor heating off that, rather than electric
which will be much more expensive to run than, say, gas central
heating base system. Unfortunately, it's not trivial to add it
to an existing heating system.
Underfloor heating has a much longer warmup time than radiators,
and is therefore not so suitable if you run your heating for only
a small part of each day.
