Working in Waterlooville
As well as Waterlooville itself (PO7, PO8 and PO9), we survey in Havant, Emsworth and Portsmouth.
In Waterlooville, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We check door thresholds in Waterlooville homes at the survey, because underfloor heating and new tiles raise the floor slightly. For Waterlooville homes having the bathroom floor replaced, underfloor heating adds one to two days to the fit.
Supplies across most of Hampshire are hard. Hard water leaves white marks on dark grout and gloss tiles, so matt finishes and stain-resistant grout are the practical choice. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- For wet systems, pipes in low-profile boards or screed connected to a manifold or single-zone kit, with any boiler work done by a Gas Safe registered engineer
- A check of the floor construction, the room's heat loss and where the thermostat and supply will go
- A dial, programmable or smart thermostat, with the supply RCD protected, tested and certified by a qualified electrician
- A floor sensor set between the heating runs and wired back to the thermostat
Decisions to make first
Thermostat
A simple dial thermostat, a programmable one with set times, or a smart thermostat you can control from your phone.
Floor finish
Tiles and stone pass heat through well. LVT and vinyl can work, but check the maximum floor temperature the flooring maker allows.
Rules that apply in England
In England, a new circuit for underfloor heating is notifiable under Part P, and so is connecting it to an existing circuit in a room with a bath or shower. The electrician either self-certifies through a competent person scheme or the work is notified to building control.
