Its cost can vary considerably depending on several factors, such as the method of installation, the material used and the size of the area to be installed. In this article, we discuss the costs of underfloor heating and the factors affecting it.<\/p>\n<h2>Installation costs<\/h2>\n<p>The installation costs of underfloor heating can vary greatly. In general, electric floor heating is cheaper to install than water circulation floor heating. The installation costs of electric floor heating can be around 30-50 euros per square meter, while the installation costs of water-circulating floor heating can be 50-100 euros per square meter.<\/p>\n<h2>Operation costs<\/h2>\n<p>Operating costs largely depend on how much and how the underfloor heating is used. Electric underfloor heating can be more expensive to use, especially in large areas, as the cost of electricity is usually higher than other energy sources. Water circulation floor heating can be more affordable to use, especially if it is combined with an energy-efficient heat source, such as a geothermal heat pump.<\/p>\n<h2>Maintenance costs<\/h2>\n<p>Maintenance costs for underfloor heating are usually low. Electric underfloor heating requires little maintenance, while hydronic underfloor heating may require regular inspection and maintenance, especially if the system has pumps or other moving parts.<\/p>\n<h2>Summary<\/h2>\n<p>The costs of underfloor heating consist of installation, operation and maintenance costs. Electric underfloor heating is usually cheaper to install, but more expensive to use, while water circulation underfloor heating is more expensive to install, but more affordable to use. It is important to consider all these factors when considering installing underfloor heating.<\/p>\n<h2>Sources<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lvi-info.fi\/lattialammitys\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HVI-Info: Floor heating<\/a><\/li>\n<li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Underfloor heating is a popular heating system that offers comfort and energy efficiency.
