UNDER LAMINATE HEATING
Warmup’s ultra-thin underfloor heating systems are designed to fit discreetly between the carpet, laminate, and underlay—providing a warm, comfortable home without visible equipment. If it weren’t for the cozy heat, you’d never know it was there. With no hot or moving parts, both undercarpet and underlaminate heaters offer a clean, silent, and odour-free solution that won’t dry out the air or aggravate allergies. They are completely maintenance-free, leaving your home uncluttered while delivering consistent comfort.
Both systems use foil-based technology to ensure even heat distribution. The heaters are 100% waterproof and feature a durable, spring-like core wire that acts as an earth shield. This design makes them strong enough to withstand heavy furniture, snooker tables, stiletto heels, and other household items—provided installation is carried out correctly.
Undercarpet and underlaminate heating pads are built for safety and reliability. They will not overheat, can be left running continuously, and comply with all relevant standards. For laminate applications, SAWALFA regulations require a floor sensor to be installed beneath the pad for additional protection.
UNDERFLOOR HEATING
How It Works
-
Heat Source - Boilers, heat pumps or electricity provide energy to heat water, antifreeze solution or generate electricity.
-
Distribution - Heated fluid flows through pipes or electricity through cables, usually embedded in screed for stability and heat retention.
-
Heat transfer - The warmed floor radiates heat upward, creating comfort through both radiant and convective warmth
Key Components
-
Pipes / Heating Elements - Carry heated fluid or generate heat beneath the floor
-
Manifold & Thermostats - The central hub for fluid distribution, with thermostats for precise control
-
Insulation – Placed beneath the system to minimize heat loss and improve efficiency.
-
Screed & Heat Source – Concrete screed spreads warmth evenly, while boilers, pumps, or electricity provide energy.
Benefits
-
Comfort – Delivers steady, gentle warmth from the ground up for a cozy indoor environment.
-
Aesthetics – Eliminates bulky radiators, giving more freedom in furniture placement and design.
-
Efficiency – Operates at lower temperatures, especially efficient when paired with heat pumps.
-
Health – Reduces dust and allergen circulation, improving indoor air quality for allergy sufferers.
Considerations
Underfloor heating is a modern system that heats a space by distributing warmth from
beneath the floor. It uses a network of pipes that circulate heated water or electric cables that
produce heat, turning the entire floor surface into a low-temperature radiator. This radiant
warmth is evenly distributed throughout the room, removing cold spots and eliminating the
need for traditional radiators or ductwork.
