UNDERFLOOR HEATING IN GIBRALTAR
Professional design, supply and installation of electric and water based underfloor heating systems in Gibraltar.
Electric Underfloor Heating
Electric underfloor heating is ideal for bathrooms, kitchens and individual rooms. It is particularly suitable for refurbishment projects where a low floor build-up and straightforward installation are important.
- Ideal for individual rooms
- Suitable for refurbishments
- Low floor build-up
- Smart thermostat control
Water-based Underfloor Heating
Water-based underfloor heating is well suited to larger areas, complete properties and new-build projects. It operates efficiently at lower water temperatures and can be divided into individual heating zones.
- Ideal for larger areas
- Suitable for new builds
- Efficient low-temperature operation
- Individual heating zones
Smart Underfloor Heating Control
Control each room individually using smart thermostats, heating schedules and mobile app integration. The system can also be integrated with the wider home automation platform for centralised control alongside lighting, blinds and other smart home functions.
- Individual room temperature control
- Smart thermostats
- Mobile app and remote access
- Custom heating schedules
- Integration with lighting and blinds
- Centralised control from touchscreens
- Automated temperature and occupancy-based control
HOW WE WORK
From initial assessment to final commissioning, we manage every stage of the underfloor heating installation.
01
Site Assessment
We review the property, floor construction and heating requirements.
02
System Design
We select the most suitable electric or water-based solution.
03
Installation Planning
We coordinate the system with flooring, electrical and building works.
04
Professional Installation
The system is installed, connected and configured by our team.
05
Testing & Commissioning
We test each heating zone and set up the controls for reliable operation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to some of the most common questions about underfloor heating installation in Gibraltar.
1. Can underfloor heating be installed in an existing property?
Yes. Electric underfloor heating is often suitable for refurbishment projects because it can require less floor build-up. Water-based systems may also be possible, depending on the floor construction, available height and scope of the renovation.
2. Is electric or water-based underfloor heating better?
The most suitable system depends on the size of the property, the type of project and the existing heating system. Electric systems are often ideal for individual rooms, while water-based systems are generally better suited to larger areas and complete properties.
3. Which flooring materials are compatible with underfloor heating?
Underfloor heating can work with tiles, stone, engineered wood, laminate, vinyl flooring, SPC flooring and selected carpet systems. The final floor finish must be suitable for underfloor heating, compatible with the operating temperature and installed according to the manufacturer’s guidance.
4. Can underfloor heating be controlled from a smartphone?
Yes. Compatible smart thermostats and home automation systems can provide individual room control, heating schedules, remote access and centralised management.
5. How long does installation take?
Installation time depends on the system type, floor area and stage of the project. A single room electric installation may be completed relatively quickly, while a whole property water-based system requires more planning and coordination.
6. How much does underfloor heating cost in Gibraltar?
The cost depends on the floor area, system type, number of heating zones, floor construction and control requirements. We assess each project individually and provide a tailored quotation.
7. Can underfloor heating replace radiators?
In many properties, underfloor heating can act as the main heating system when it is correctly designed and the building has suitable insulation. A heat-loss assessment helps determine whether additional heating is required.
8. Does underfloor heating require maintenance?
Electric systems generally require very little maintenance. Water-based systems may require periodic checks of the manifold, controls and heating circuit as part of the wider heating system maintenance.
