In the face of the current economic situation, many homeowners are choosing to improve their living conditions by improving rather than moving home. Instead of making cheap and quick updates for a fast sale homeowners are now looking to invest in a quality refurbishment that will add genuine value to their properties. This is in fact an excellent time to install a luxurious and hardwearing tiled floor. The one drawback of tiled floors is how chilly they can get in winter, a cause for concern for many homeowners. This problem can be easily rectified by laying electric radiant heating in conjunction with the tiles. To a tile retailer or tiler, this will be the single most worthwhile recommendation they can make to their customers. Not only does it serve as a solution for the immediate issue at hand, it also offers several other benefits.

Aesthetic advantage: Space is always a premium and any opportunity to minimise clutter is precious. The freedom to rearrange existing furniture, to enhance usage of available space,to be creative without hindrance from obstructive radiators, is a powerful incentive for many homeowners.

Greater heating efficiency: Electric floor heating provides more than just warmth - it provides a more efficient form of heating. Because the vertical stratification of underfloor heating conformsto the natural inclinations of the human body towards warm feet and cool head, it makes for more comfortable warmth than conventional radiators.

Hassle-free specification and installation: One of the greatest aspects of electric underfloor heating must be its installation, and in turn specification simplicity. It works with both wood and concrete floorbases and is thus suitable for period houses and new properties. Plus it does not raise floor height - a critical consideration in many improvement projects.

Peace of mind: Once installed, neither retailer, installer nor homeowner need to worry about future servicing as there are no pipes to bleed or clean. Should any problems arise the plethora of warranties, including popular lifetime guarantees available, provide a security blanket.
