Yes – without proper insulation, much of the heat generated by your underfloor heating system will be lost downwards into the subfloor. Underfloor heating insulation boards help reflect heat upwards where it’s needed, improving both comfort and efficiency.
XPS insulation boards are ideal due to their high compressive strength, moisture resistance, and thermal insulation properties. They’re also lightweight and easy to install.
Absolutely. In fact, they’re especially recommended with electric systems to ensure quick heat-up times and minimise energy loss.
This depends on your subfloor and floor finish. Common thicknesses range from 6mm to 20mm. Thicker boards offer better insulation, but may slightly raise the floor height.
Even though our TOPLO prodcuts are cheaper underfloor heating systems, they are still designed for long-lasting durability, with components built to perform reliably for many years. In fact, we trust the quality of our TOPLO products so much, that all of our Premium Plus kits come with a lifetime warranty on the manifold and pipe, ensuring their longevity.
Yes, our products are versatile and suitable for both new builds and renovation projects. Whether you're adding underfloor heating to a new room or upgrading an existing space, our kits provide a seamless solution.
SMART Wi-Fi thermostats allow you to control your heating remotely through an app, enabling you to set schedules, adjust temperatures, and monitor energy use, ensuring efficient heating and reduced energy bills.
The Premium Plus range includes all the features of our Premium kits, with added benefits like a lifetime warranty on the manifold and pipe. Additionally, it comes with a SMART Wi-Fi thermostat for effortless temperature control.
Yes, if you decide later down the line that you want more underfloor heating coverage, you can expand your system, either by purchasing another single room kit or a larger one like the TopLo Premium Underfloor Heating Kit, which covers up to 240 m2².
Wall heating works by leveraging the principles of radiant heat transfer. The pipes warm the wall surfaces, which then radiates heat to the surrounding space. Unlike traditional convection heating, which warms the air, wall heating warms the surfaces directly, leading to even heat distribution.
Yes, wall heating can be energy-efficient, especially when combined with a heat pump low temperature system. Radiant heating typically runs at lower temperatures and can provide effective heating with less energy than traditional systems.
Wall heating can be installed in most homes. However, the installation process may vary based on the existing wall structure and whether it's being retrofitted or installed in new construction. Consulting with a professional is recommended to assess feasibility.
The cost of wall heating systems can vary widely based on several factors, including the type of system, the size of the area being heated, installation costs, and energy source. It’s best to get estimates from qualified contractors.
Wall heating systems generally require minimal maintenance. Once setup and commissioned there is minimal ongoing maintenance required.
Yes, wall heating can be used as a primary heat source, especially in well-insulated homes. However, it may also work in conjunction with other heating systems for optimal comfort and efficiency.
Yes, most wall heating systems can be controlled using a thermostat, enabling you to set and maintain desired temperature levels for comfort and efficiency.
