Does the system work well with a low-temperature heat pump?

Yes, absolutely! Underfloor heating works very well with a low-temperature heat pump and is actually a highly efficient combination.

Why are they great together?

1. Compatible water temperature

A low-temperature heat pump (HP) heats water to a relatively low temperature, generally between 30 and 40°C. This is exactly what you need for underfloor heating! It uses gentle heat, but spreads it over a large surface area (the floor), providing very comfortable heating without consuming too much energy.

2. Energy savings

The heat pump is super efficient because it pumps heat from outside (even when it's cold outside) and works very well at low temperatures.

Combined with underfloor heating, it can significantly reduce your heating bill while providing optimal comfort.

3. Constant and even heating

With underfloor heating, heat is distributed evenly throughout the room, which is even better when the water is not heated to high temperatures. Thanks to this gentle and continuous heat, you avoid large temperature differences and it remains comfortable throughout the room.

What about installation?

The advantage is that you don't need to change your underfloor heating system if you install a low-temperature heat pump. It is designed to work with lower water temperatures, which is perfect for the heat pump. You keep your existing system and simply add the heat pump.

You can also optimize the installation by using temperature controls that automatically adjust the heat based on the outside temperature and demand in the house. This will further improve efficiency and savings.

In summary:

  • Underfloor heating + low-temperature heat pump: it's a winning combination!
  • It's economical, environmentally friendly, and above all, extremely comfortable.
  • It operates at low temperatures, which is perfect for even heat distribution.
