About the technology
Underfloor heating, also known as hydronic radiant heating, is a modern heating system where warm water flows through pipes installed beneath your floor. Unlike systems that rely on air convection, it provides heat without cold spots. Underfloor heating transforms your entire floor into a gentle, radiant heat source.
When paired with an Ecodan hot water heat pump, this system becomes incredibly efficient. Heat pumps extract renewable energy from the outside air and use it to warm the water circulating through your floors—providing sustainable comfort even on the coldest New Zealand days.
No visible heating appliance on the wall. Your floor becomes the heating system, freeing up wall space and enhancing interior design.
Heat rises naturally from the floor, creating consistent warmth throughout the room without cold spots or temperature variations.
Operates at lower water temperatures than traditional high temp radiators, reducing energy consumption to maintain the same level of comfort.
Reduces dust circulation compared to forced air systems, and maintains optimal humidity levels for better indoor air quality.
Step by step
A simple yet sophisticated system that delivers consistent warmth throughout your home.
Your Ecodan heats water to a comfortable 35–45°C, much lower than traditional radiator systems.
Warm water flows through a network of pipes embedded in your concrete slab, floor screed or mounted beneath timber floors.
The floor surface warms gently and radiates heat upward, warming objects and people in the room naturally.
Smart thermostats in each zone maintain your desired temperature automatically, room by room.
Versatile and compatible
Underfloor heating works beautifully with various floor types and is particularly well-suited to New Zealand’s climate and building styles.
