Floor heaters require less energy to reach optimal comfort temperatures than traditional heating systems and with this This heated water produces radiant warmth which heats up a room to a consistent, comfortable temperature from the floor up; heating the objects in a room as opposed to central heating-based radiators which concentrate on heating the air of a room, thereby often creating a ‘stuffy’ environment. increased energy-efficiency, you can expect lower long-term running costs. The ‘invisible’ nature of underfloor heating also allows complete freedom when designing your home, with no style interruptions caused by bulky radiators and exposed piping. Hydronic Underfloor Heating Hydronic Underfloor Heating, also known as Wet or Water Underfloor Heating, is a heating system that pumps heated water from a combination boiler or other heating source, such as ground and air source heat pumps, through pipes within the floor construction. 80 Warmup’s Clypso System is an ideal hydronic floor heater for off-plan developments and home extension projects. It has been designed specifically for installation within floating screeded floors and as it is fitted directly into the screed, it has little impact on the depth of the floor construction. The Clypso System features a strong and flexible heating pipe which is clipped into position on top of a layer of unique insulation panels. Insulation is key to maximising the energy-efficiency of any heating system and the Clypso Insulation dramatically reduces heat-loss and helps distributes warmth throughout the room quickly and evenly.
