Hi folks, been reading through the underfloor heating posts and just not finding an answer to my particular ponderings.
Looking to buy a house in a cold climate where ground floor underfloor heating is now the norm. Thing is, this house is a wee bit older and doesn't have this feature. I was wondering what my options are...
the downstairs is mostly old and worn wooden flooring. I was already thinking that I'd renew the floor and possibly by simply installing new wooden floorring straight over the old. I was then wondering if it would be possible to install underfloor heating mats in this kind of a set up. Of course then I wondered if mats are an efficient way to go at all given that the heat would likely be on all winter?
Any thoughts?
