The World’s Thinnest Electric Underfloor Heating Solution

Warmup offers the thinnest, BEAB-approved (British Electrotechnical Approvals Board), heating wire on the market. The ultra-thin wire exceeds the toughest safety standards, which means you can count on it to perform, year after year.

Manufactured from hard-wearing dual-fluoropolymer coated heating wire, it actually measures an astonishing sub 1.8mm thickness, which means it won’t raise floor levels like some inferior brands. Warmup flooring is easy to fit, deploying innovative fitting technology from a loose wire system affixed with tape to pre-spaced wiring mats. These systems ensure that installation is quick and hassle-free. 

 

With systems suitable for all floor types, you’ll easily find a range to suit your needs and budget. Easy to install heating mats and controlling thermostats allow you to choose whatever temperature suits your requirements. Set the timer to come on in the morning and you’ll never have to have cold feet in the bathroom again, and, at an affordable price, it doesn’t have to cost the earth.

Warmup DCM-Pro Cables

Warmup DCM-Pro Heating Cables are electric floor heating wires that can be installed directly onto or into the subfloor, without the need for a mat backing. They offer great flexibility for layout design as they can be fitted around fixed objects – making them the perfect floor heating solution for bathrooms and irregularly shaped rooms.

The DCM-PRO can be covered with self-levelling compound, allowing it to heat and protect any floor covering material that is certified for use with underfloor heating. Suitable floorings include: Tile, Stone, Polished Screed, Wood, Engineered Timber, Laminate, Vinyl, Carpet and Rubber Flooring.

Warmup Insulation Boards

Using Warmup insulation boards with underfloor heating can lower your running costs by as much as 50% while reducing your carbon footprint. In fact, they can pay for themselves in as little as 2 and a half years. In testing, heat-up time was cut from over 2 and a half hours to just 20 minutes. This data applies to Warmup® heating products only.

As a wall tile backer board, tiles can be fixed directly onto the surface without prior preparation and, being totally waterproof, is suitable for bathrooms or showers.

How does underfloor heating work?
There are two types of underfloor heating; the ‘dry system’, which uses electrical wiring, or the ‘wet system’, which uses hot water to heat the floor via piping - fed from your central heating.

Is underfloor heating expensive to run?
Compared to traditional radiators, underfloor heating is one of the cheaper heating solutions for running costs as it requires lower temperatures but with even distribution.

Is underfloor heating efficient?
Underfloor heating is extremely efficient when compared to alternative heating solutions - radiators - as lower temperatures are needed but result in even heat distribution.

How to install underfloor heating?
This comes down to which system you are installing - wet or dry.

For the wet system - one that links into your central heating - it is as follows:

  1. Pull up the floor - if installing a new floor on top, skip this step
  2. Lay the pipes - there should be a guide to ensure the pipes aren’t laid upside down. Ensure pipes are spaced evenly so that heat is distributed evenly
  3. Cover the underfloor heating with screed - a cement-like mixture - that helps with insulation and for heat to be generated quicker. Ensure pipes are secured in place to avoid cracks. Screed must be allowed to dry naturally.

For an electric underfloor system, such as those from Warmup, follow this video explains the installation process:

What temperature does underfloor heating run at?
Underfloor heating will run at a similar temperature to a radiator - 21°C - which is a pleasant temperature that the walls and air will then reach. The temperature of the heated floor surface is much lower than a radiator, with a maximum around 29°C.

Do you need radiators with underfloor heating?
Underfloor heating and radiators distribute their heat differently. Underfloor spreads heat evenly via radiant heat compared to the more uneven convection by radiators. It is possible to completely replace radiators with underfloor heating, but you will need to undertake a heat loss calculation.

Should I leave underfloor heating on all the time?
In winter, yes, as it will ensure faster response times when heating is needed - underfloor heating can take time to warm-up, especially through stone flooring. So, it’s best not to switch the system off completely when not in use or no one is home.

floor

 

What type of flooring can be used with underfloor heating?
Tile and stone are the best types of flooring for underfloor heating as they have high thermal conductivity, meaning the heat transfers to the floor surface quickly. Wood, vinyl, laminate and carpet can all feature underfloor heating, too.

Can you have underfloor heating with a carpet?
Yes, you can have underfloor heating with a carpet. Carpet is suitable, as long as the material of the carpet or underlay does not act as an insulator, blocking the heat. The total tog of all materials must not exceed 1.5.

Can you lay vinyl flooring over underfloor heating?
Yes, you can lay vinyl on underfloor heating; however, vinyl floors have a top floor temperature restriction, often 27°C. This will limit the system’s heat output, so they are not recommended for high heat loss areas.

Is underfloor heating enough on its own?
Underfloor heating is more than enough when, traditionally, used in a bathroom or even a kitchen. Like standard heating, underfloor heating capabilities are influenced by insulation as well as by floor covering.

How much is underfloor heating?
Underfloor heating costs vary greatly; they can start as low as £30 for small projects right up to £10,000 for large projects. The cost will depend on key factors, such as the system you choose, size of the room/s in question and the age of your home.

How much is underfloor heating per sqm?
Typically, the cost of underfloor heating per m² is around £50-£75, when using electric heat mats. Warmup’s Loose Wire System in a 4m² bathroom, with accompanying insulation and thermostat, is around £470 + VAT.

How much is it to install electric underfloor heating?
The average labour costs for installing underfloor heating is between £200-£300 per day. Most electric systems can be installed in one to two days, so, should cost from £400-£600.

nest

Can you use Nest with underfloor heating?
A Nest thermostat can be used for both electric and wet underfloor heating systems. Using the Nest thermostat is much easier when it is a single underfloor zone - one room.

Does Hive work with underfloor heating?
Yes, a Hive thermostat can control underfloor heating but only wet systems - it is not compatible with electric underfloor heating.

What Warmup product types are available and what are they best used for?

Warmup offers several core product types: heating mats for efficient, even coverage; DCM‑Pro cables for custom-shaped areas; insulation boards to speed response and reduce heat loss; thermostats for precise control; and accessories to finish the system. If you want a quick, regular layout for a square bathroom, a heating mat is ideal, while DCM‑Pro cables suit odd shapes or areas around fixtures. Insulation boards are useful wherever you want faster warm‑up times or lower running costs.

Will adding Warmup insulation boards really reduce running costs?

Yes. Insulation boards limit downward heat loss so more of the energy goes into warming the floor surface, which shortens warm‑up times and reduces how long the system needs to run. on a concrete subfloor a board will cut the time it takes to reach a comfortable floor temperature compared with no insulation. That means you use less energy overall for the same comfort.

How reliable and safe are Warmup electric underfloor heating systems?

Warmup systems are CE‑marked and are independently accredited by more testing institutions than any other manufacturer in the industry, giving you clear, third‑party assurance of performance and safety. The brand is research and development led and holds proprietary patents, so you're buying a well‑tested, engineering‑backed solution. Those credentials offer real peace of mind for a wet‑room or kitchen environment.

What can Warmup thermostats do to improve comfort in your bathroom or kitchen?

Warmup thermostats give you precise temperature control and scheduling so rooms are warm when you need them and not wasting energy when you don't. In a bathroom you might set a thermostat to preheat the floor before your morning routine, while in a busy kitchen you could keep a lower steady setting and boost briefly when you want warmer floors. Different thermostat models let you match control features to how you use each room.

How quickly will I notice warmer floors with Warmup underfloor heating?

You'll feel a difference faster if you combine a heating mat or DCM‑Pro cable with insulation boards, because the system delivers heat to the surface more efficiently. Heating mats provide even coverage for a consistently warm floor, and insulation boards reduce heat loss so the surface reaches comfort temperature sooner. a tiled bathroom with a mat and insulation will warm underfoot much quicker than a floor without insulation.
