Underfloor Heating Project Overview
R.G. Evans Plumbing and Heating recently completed a 190-square-metre underfloor heating installation for a new build property. We partnered with Heated Floors, who supplied the materials and collaborated closely with our engineers to design an efficient and high-performing system. From start to finish, our team managed the full installation, including pipework, manifolds, and final system testing. As a result, the client now enjoys consistent warmth throughout their property.
The project was brought to us through Ilic Plumbing, who asked us to install a complete XPS solid overlay underfloor heating system.
Underfloor Heating Project Details
The XPS solid overlay system is perfect for properties with limited floor height. It provides an energy-efficient heating option that fits easily into both new and existing homes.
During installation, our engineers fitted two manifolds and a complete network of heating pipes. Every loop was designed with precision to achieve balanced heat distribution across all zones. Because the system was properly planned, it now maintains an even temperature throughout every room.
In addition, the system works well with different flooring materials, including tiles, timber, and vinyl. Its quick warm-up time and smooth operation make it a comfortable, low-maintenance choice for everyday living.
About the XPS Overlay System
The XPS overlay underfloor heating system is a water-based design known for its compact size and efficient heat transfer. It can be fitted directly over an existing subfloor, which makes it suitable for both new builds and renovation projects.
Because it transfers heat evenly through the entire surface, it eliminates cold spots and creates a steady indoor temperature. This system also runs at lower water temperatures, which helps reduce energy consumption while keeping rooms comfortable.
By removing the need for bulky radiators, it allows more design freedom and gives each space a clean, modern appearance.
Benefits of Underfloor Heating
Choosing underfloor heating offers multiple benefits beyond comfort. It provides a smarter, more efficient way to heat a home or building.
Even Heat Distribution: Underfloor heating delivers warmth evenly across every room, removing the hot and cold spots often created by wall-mounted radiators.
Energy Efficiency: Because the system runs at lower water temperatures, it requires less energy to heat the property — helping reduce energy bills and lower carbon emissions.
Design Flexibility: Removing radiators opens up wall space and allows for cleaner, more flexible room layouts. This makes it ideal for open-plan and contemporary designs.
Low Maintenance: Once professionally installed and commissioned, water-based underfloor heating systems require very little maintenance and provide reliable performance for years to come.
Our Approach to Underfloor Heating
At R.G. Evans Plumbing and Heating, we plan each underfloor heating installation with precision. Our design team reviews every property’s layout, insulation, and heating source before work begins. This ensures each system performs efficiently and meets the client’s exact requirements.
We collaborate closely with developers, builders, and renewable energy specialists to maintain quality and safety across every project. Because we combine decades of experience with modern technology, our installations deliver excellent performance and value.
Our goal is simple: to provide energy-efficient heating systems that offer comfort, reliability, and long-term savings.
