Really struggling to make a decision on whether to choose engineered wood or tiles on top of underfloor heating, water option. What are the key pros and construction? Thanks

    Hi John,

    If you are interested in tiles, natural stone is a great option for underfloor heating as it holds the heat when the heating is turned off. Here is a great article on underfloor heating... http://www.cliftonstone.co.uk/products/limestone-flooring-walling-london.html

    You can also see our range of stone here... http://www.cliftonstone.co.uk/products/limestone-flooring-walling-london.html

    If you would like any further information or advice, please feel free to get in touch.

    Hi John, I've recently had underfloor heating fitted and it works really well. The advice I was given was that wet UF is more expensive to install but cheaper to run and dry UF is cheaper to install but more expensive to run. I had it fitted in a new extension that is now my kitchen diner, so because it was ground floor I chose wet UF and have fitted porcelain tiles over it. Wood looks beautiful but I have 3 dogs so tiles are more practical. Also it's possible that wood as a living entity could warp and shift with the changes in temperature.

    I have porcelain tiles and engineered wood over wet UFH. The main difference I notice is that the tiles conduct the heat better and seem to retain the heat for longer. I think it depends which room you are installing the flooring in. My tiles are in the kitchen/dining/casual living area which I spend a lot of time in. The engineered wooden floor is in the hallway and it doesn't matter if it doesn't heat up quite as well.
