The best underfloor heating system for your home will depend on the floor size, height of the floor as well as a range of other factors. At Heavenly Heat we recommend one of three options.
This is made of high-quality heating cables that are woven into flexible strips. Easy mats are ideal for heating basements, bathrooms, sunrooms, and other areas where warm floors offer greater comfort. Easy Mats come in three heat requirement strengths; 12, 15, or 20 Watts per square foot. 12 Watt per square foot is perfect for secondary comfort heating whereas 20 Watt per square foot is ideal for primary room heating.
EasyWire is perfect for heating sunrooms, bathrooms, and basements. It comes in varying heat requirement strengths from 10 to 20 Watt per square foot. 10 Watt per square foot is recommended when underfloor heating is being used as a secondary comfort heating whereas 20 Watt per square foot is ideal where underfloor heating is used as the primary room heating.
This is a cUL listed self-regulating parallel heating cable designed for both residential and industrial applications. The cable increases or reduces heat output depending on the ambient temperature. The cable can never overheat even when it is overlapped.

To get great thermal conductivity, it is imperative that you choose laminate flooring with dense materials. The denser the material is the better it will be at transferring heat. It is also good to note that the thinner the flooring material is the faster it will transfer heat.
With underfloor heating, both solid wood and laminate flooring make a great floor covering. This is provided the material isn’t overly thick. For the best results, the thickness should be a maximum of 18mm. A thickness thicker than this will impede efficient performance.
With the board size, the wider boards show more movement than narrow ones. At Heavenly Heat, we thus recommend the ratio of thickness to widget be around 7 to 11. A board that has a width of 160mm and a thickness of 16mm will give a ratio of 10. It is, thus, a good choice.
The temperature of wood and laminate floor surfaces must never go above 27 degrees Celsius (81 degrees F). The temperature restriction is maintained using a thermostat. If you plan on using underfloor heating as the primary source of heat in a room, you should get a heat calculation done to ensure the floor heater meets the heating requirements.

The type of underfloor heating you choose to install will depend on a number of things. For example, if you want to install an Easy Mat, the installation will include the following:
It is of greatest importance that during the installation of underfloor heating, everything including the final floor finish and underlay be in the restrictions set in the below table. If the manufacturer insists that the laminate flooring has to be used with an underlay, the underlay should not be bigger than 6mm and should be breathable.
Proper care has to be taken to ensure the laminate flooring has an effective performance of the system. At Heavenly Heat, we do not recommend the installation of floor heaters if the limits in the below table are not met. This is because failure to meet these limits may impact the overall performance of the underfloor heating system and cause the system not to work as required.
Transfer of Heat Limits | |
Tog | 1.5 (unless it is stated otherwise) |
RSI | 0.15m2 K/W (unless stated otherwise) |
R-value (US) | Should not exceed 1.42 |
