What factors influence the price of underfloor heating?

The price of underfloor heating is influenced by what type of underfloor heating is chosen and how it is installed. The following factors also play a role:

• Main or auxiliary heating
• The number of square meters (m²)  
• What top layer finish is used
• Is noise reduction needed? 

Cost of underfloor heating as main heating

When the underfloor heating is laid as main heating, it is wise to choose pipe diameter 16 mm. In addition, we recommend that the center-to-center distance of the underfloor heating pipe in the floor should be no wider than 120 mm. It is advisable to be able to control each room separately. This means that you need several groups and make sure that these groups do not overlap in other rooms.

Cost of underfloor heating as additional heating

Would you like to have warm feet, but also continue to use radiators? This is possible with the floor elements of R Floorzz. Here the center-to-center distance is less important, but it must be pleasant. Therefore, we advise you to carefully assess your wishes for heating the rooms and also take into account possible future plans.

The number of square meters (m²)

Of course, the final price of underfloor heating depends on the number of square meters to be laid. In general, the rule of thumb is: the larger the area to be laid, the lower the price per square meter.
