H. Schreiber, Germany:

Dear Mrs Thull, Thank you very much for your kind support (delivery of the system and the repair kit). I never experienced such a commitment and helpfulness before. Please pass my regards on to your husband. For my underfloor heating in my bathroom (Q2, 2007) Warmup will certainly be my first address. A very satisfied customer. Best regards from Munic

Rosamund Fellowes, UK:

Dear Howard, Thank you very much for your email. I am sorry to have pestered you with such an in inane request. I did in fact speak to one of your very helpful and well trained colleagues, who gave out some excellent advice re adhesive. I had to, in the end, purchase one more sheet of insulating board which was so easy from your warehouse. It is now all down and tiled over and lovely and warm. Thank you for all your help and advice. I will now persuade everyone to install it ! With best wishes.

Joy Dancses, US:

It is damp and dreary outside this morning. I poured a cup of coffee in the kitchen and strolled into the den. In the den my bare feet were greeted by a warm tile floor. What a thrilling sensual sensation radiating from my feet through my whole body.Everyone needs heated tiles. It is not a luxury it is a necessity.
Joy Dancses

C. Brennan, UK:

I wish to congratulate you on the excellent service I have received from one of your technical support staff (Dorna). I have recently had some problems with my (much loved) Warmup underfloor heating system and Dorna has ensured that I was able to correct the problem. Indeed, were it not for the assistance I have received I probably would have given up trying to fix it and been left deeply unsatisfied with the product. As it is I should soon have my warm floor back and will recommend the system to anyone that is in the market for such a product. With this type of product after-sales care and technical support is important and in this case it was faultless. Well done and thank you! Kind regards
C. Brennan

Allan & Janet Sterry, UK:

Dear Warm Up People, I’ve just finished my bathroom floor and wanted to say how utterly delighted my wife and I are with it. It’s been one of the best DIY jobs I’ve ever done and everybody I’ve showed it to has been impressed. I used the on-line help for a couple of questions and found that really useful and even find the little multi tool gift to be good and in no way tacky. The wall Tstat does everything you want and I’m delighted with that unit too! Sorry I can’t offer any suggestions for improvement but I’m now looking at my kitchen floor…..I wonder…..?? Thank You, Very, Very Pleased
Alan and Janet Sterry

Is it really necessary? http://blog.warmup.com/2006/01/use-of-insulated-tile-backer-board-with-underfloor-heating-is-it-really-required/ http://blog.warmup.com/2006/01/use-of-insulated-tile-backer-board-with-underfloor-heating-is-it-really-required/#comments Mon, 09 Jan 2006 14:35:01 +0000 Spencer http://www.warmup.com/blog/2006/01/09/use-of-insulated-tile-backer-board-with-underfloor-heating-is-it-really-required/ Many electric underfloor heating companies recommend the use of insulated tile backer boards when installing onto concrete subfloors, but is it really necessary or just an added expense? (at ?10-15/m? for insulation board, this is a good question!)
Strictly speaking, the answer is, “It depends on the situation.”

For example, if the concrete subfloor you’re installing onto has insulation below it (50 mm down or so) and you plan to leave the heating on most or all of the day, then you might not need extra insulation. In some cases, the concrete (with insulation below the slab) will act as a heat-sink and will hold quite a bit of heat whilst the heating is off. However, this situation is rare when electric underfloor heating used.

By and large, electric underfloor heating is used as a direct-acting form of heating. That is, it is powered only when you are using the room it is in; not overnight or while you are at work. As such, the quicker the floor heats up, the lower the running costs.

In most situations, insulation board normally pays for itself within 2-3 years as well as providing you with floor-heating that is much more effective and can be ready to go within minutes instead of hours.
