One of the latest trends we are seeing in properties is underfloor heating systems. There is good reason for this as underfloor heating covers a wide range surface area. You can usually operate underfloor heating at lower temperatures which should mean heating costs should be cheaper. 

You will find comfort also increases as heat is distributed evenly across your home. This obviously depends on how well your property is insulated.

The best thing about underfloor heating is the extra space you will gain by not having radiators. It also reduces the pipework needed around the house which is better for the environment.
