Floor Heating Benefits
Gaia underfloor heating everywhere and under all surfaces Furnish your room as you please The most comprehensive warranty Capital cost savings Economical 10 year warranty Total floor solutions
Gaia underfloor heating systems ensure a comfortable warm floor or room heat and are suitable for a variety of applications. Equally important is the fact that the underfloor heating system can be installed in all types of floor whether they are new concrete floors, wooden floors or renovated floors.
Gaia floor heating systems are invisible. By being hidden under the floor it gives exciting new possibilities for furnishing and interior design and the problem of space consuming and unattractive radiators no longer has to be considered.
Our systems are designed to last as long as the building in which they are installed - and that is without having to maintain them! This is why we provide you with a 10-year guarantee on all our heating mats, cables and pipe.
Underfloor heating offers major capital cost savings when compared with more traditional systems. Gaia systems are ‘fit and forget,' there's no need for expensive maintenance contracts, that are likely to be required with traditional systems.
If the system is used as a total heating solution, it is possible to lower the average room temperature by 2ºC without affecting the level of comfort. This means that heating can be reduced by around 20% - which is both an economic and an environmental advantage. As well as this - for our electric systems there is no need for gas or flues which removes the need to channel emmissions out of the building. This greatly simplifies the design process and provides a safe, clean and 100% efficient environment.
Gaia underfloor heating is both quicker and more economical to install than other heating systems with corresponding capacity. The heating can be cast within the floor, installed between timber joists or laid directly on top of an existing floor before tiling. The system can be used under all types of floor covering, plus it is exceptionally robust and hard-wearing. That is why we provide you with a 10-year warranty on the heating cables, mats and pipe.
Gaia strive to ensure that the installation process is as efficient as possible. Working closely wtih a number of other companies, we are able to offer a total solution for your project, encompassing the work of three trades; insulation, heating installation and screed as well as MVHR. As well as providing one point of responsibility, this means that the build programme can be streamlined in order to achieve the highest level of efficiency. As an example, in a typical week, we would prepare the floor on a Monday and Tuesday, install the heating cables on Wednesday and Thursday and screed on Friday.
