Hydronic systems, like our Total 16, typically have a greater system depth than electric systems, so are ideal for new-build projects where the dimensions of the systems can be taken into account during the architectural design stages. If you’re looking for a more low-profile floor heating solution, a Warmup electric floor heater may be more suitable, such as our StickyMat. Heat pumps are often inefficient when used to power a central heating system as the levels of heat required are often higher than a heat pump can produce; a hydronic underfloor heating system requires a lower temperature to operate than central heating systems, therefore making them perfect for use with heat pumps. Easy Installation and Compatible with Heat Pumps To enhance the energy-efficiency of a floor heater, a system-dedicated Smart heating controller is recommended for a truly personalised heating solution whilst helping you avoid energy wastage. The Clypso System offers a quick and hassle-free installation by a qualified installer of floor heating systems. Its insulation panels utilise a gridwork design to offer clear guidance for the best heating pipe layout and, like all of Warmup’s heaters, the Clypso System is covered by extensive warranties including the SafetyNet Guarantee which protects against accidental damage during installation, for true peace of mind. Hydronic underfloor heaters are suitable for use with a ground source or air source heat pump. Heat pumps are a more sustainable way to heat a home, capturing natural heat from the ground or air and using this to gently warm the water within a hydronic system. 81 An Energy-Efficient Heating Solution Warmup’s 4iE Smart WiFi Thermostat can learn your habits, making sure your home is always at the right temperature, at the right time for you and utilises smartphone-based technology such as the MyHeating app to facilitate advanced features such as remote access and automatic heating.
