When should you consider underfloor heating?

  • You are replacing the floors anyway
  • Warm only next to the radiators
  • Radiators taking up wall space
  • Switching to a heat pump

What the underfloor heating includes

  • Circuit layout

    Pipe spacing and number of circuits worked out for each room.

  • Insulation and edge strip

    Insulation boards and a perimeter strip so the heat goes up, not down.

  • PEX or multilayer pipe

    Laid in a spiral with no joints under the floor.

  • Manifold with flow meters

    Every circuit balanced from a single accessible cabinet.

  • Pressure test

    Circuits filled and kept under pressure before and during the screed pour.

  • Screed

    An even, level layer, ready for your chosen flooring.

What we check before lifting the floor

In houses in areas such as Centre and Can Magarola that are switching from an oil boiler to a heat pump, underfloor heating is the emitter that works best with low-temperature water. We design the circuits around the output of the heat pump.

In flats and houses in areas such as Alella Parc, Can Sorts and Nova Alella we pour the screed with the circuits full and under pressure, so any damage shows at once. Movement joints go in at doorways and across large areas.

A site manager coordinates removing the old floor, the installation and the screed pour, and we leave the base clean for the tiler. We also work nearby: El Masnou, Teià and Tiana.

Frequently asked questions

01

Underfloor heating installation in Alella: which areas do you cover?

We work in Alella in areas such as Centre, Can Magarola, Alella Parc, Can Sorts, Nova Alella and El Solell, and also nearby: El Masnou, Teià and Tiana.

02

What floor height does it take up?

A standard system adds around 8–10 cm for insulation, pipe and screed, plus the floor finish. Where height is tight, low-profile systems take up much less.

03

Which floor finishes can go on top?

Ceramic and porcelain tiles transfer heat most readily. Engineered wood or vinyl rated for underfloor heating also work, at the thickness the manufacturer specifies.

04

What heats the water?

A heat pump, the most efficient match because both work at low temperature, or a condensing boiler. If the unit allows it, the floor can also provide gentle cooling in summer.
