Simple - Modern underfloor heating provides many advantages over traditional radiator based systems. Where large warm surfaces, such as the floor exist, it is possible to achieve comfortable conditions with a cooler air temperature, making underfloor heating more energy efficient and comfortable than traditional radiator systems. This results in a greater feeling of freshness and will result in lower heat loss from the building and consequently lower energy costs.
It is more comfortable to have a constant, evenly distributed temperature of 20 - 24 degrees Centigrade, than it is to have a single high temperature heat source such as a radiator or fire along a wall of the room. The radiant heat from the floor also reduces the constant air circulation and resulting cold drafts and dust.
