  • Screed/concrete – direct heat transfer

Conditionally suitable (follow the manufacturer's specifications):

  • Laminate – only special qualities suitable for underfloor heating
  • Vinyl/PVC – maximum surface temperature of 27°C
  • Parquet – only multilayer, glued varieties

Not suitable:

  • Carpet – provides too much insulation, preventing heat from passing through
  • Solid wood floorboards – expand and contract too much and may crack

How long does it take for underfloor heating to warm up?

Heating time: 15–30 minutes to reach the desired temperature (depending on the floor covering and room temperature)

Faster than hot-water underfloor heating: Electric systems respond significantly faster than water-based systems (which take 1–2 hours)

Practical tip: Preheat automatically with a timer – switch it on at 6 a.m.; the bathroom will be perfectly heated by 7 a.m.

Is electric underfloor heating suitable as the main heating system?

Yes, under certain conditions:

  • Well-insulated new buildings (KfW 55 standard or better)
  • Small to medium-sized rooms (up to 30 m²)
  • Low heating demand (well-insulated buildings)
  • Combination with other heat sources (e.g. heat pump, photovoltaic system)

Ideal as supplementary heating:

  • Supplement to central heating in the bathroom and kitchen
  • Transition period (spring/autumn) – central heating off, underfloor heating on
  • Targeted heating of individual rooms

Can I install underfloor heating myself?

Installing the heating mat: Yes, possible with some DIY skills – similar to laying tiles

Electrical connection: No, this must be carried out by a certified electrician (VDE regulations)

Recommendation: Install the heating mat yourself and hire an electrician for the connection – saves costs and is legally safe

How long does electric underfloor heating last?

Service life: 30–40 years with normal use – often longer than the building itself

Buy electric underfloor heating – How to find the right size

Step 1: Calculate the area

Measure the room size: Length × width = total area

Deduct permanently installed furniture:

  • Bathtub, shower (permanently installed)
  • Built-in cabinets, kitchen units
  • Toilet base (approx. 0.5 m²)
  • Washbasin cabinet

Movable furniture: Can remain in place – laying the heating mat underneath is not a problem

Example bathroom 3 m × 2.5 m:

  • Total area: 7.5 m²
  • Deduction for bathtub: -2.0 m²
  • Deduction for toilet: -0.5 m²
  • Deduction for washbasin: -0.5 m²
  • Heated area: 4.5 m² → order a 5 m² heating mat

Step 2: Select the heating output

Standard living areas: 160 W/m² (bathroom, kitchen, living room)

Bedroom: 100-130 W/m² (reduced output for a cooler sleeping temperature)

Conservatory/poorly insulated: 200 W/m² (higher output for greater heat loss)

Step 3: Select a thermostat

Digital thermostat: For easy operation and time programs

WIFI thermostat: For smart home integration and remote control

Several rooms: Each room needs its own thermostat for individual control

Step 4: Complete set or individual components?

Recommended complete set for:

  • First installation – you do not have anything yet
  • Individual rooms (bathroom, guest WC)
  • Simple planning – everything fits together

Individual components are ideal for:

  • Several rooms with one thermostat (not recommended – each room should be controllable separately)
  • Replacement of defective components
  • Special requirements (e.g. particularly large areas)

Installation tips for professionals and ambitious DIY enthusiasts

Avoid common mistakes

Error 1: Switching on the heating mat too early

Problem: Tile adhesive/screed has not yet cured – cracks may develop

Solution: Wait at least 28 days, then heat up slowly (increase by 5°C daily)

Error 2: Floor sensor positioned incorrectly

Problem: Sensor lies directly on the heating cable – measures too high a temperature, room remains cold

Solution: Position the floor sensor precisely between two heating cables and install it in a protective conduit

Error 3: No continuity test before covering the mat

Problem: The heating mat was damaged during installation—this is only noticed after tiling

Solution: An electrician tests the resistance and insulation BEFORE covering the mat with tile adhesive

Error 4: Heating mat installed under permanently installed furniture

Problem: Heat buildup under a bathtub or built-in cabinet—overheating is possible

Solution: Install the heating mat only in freely accessible areas, leaving permanently installed furniture uncovered

Error 5: Incorrect heating output selected

Problem: Too little power—the room will not get warm; too much power—unnecessarily high costs

Solution: 160 W/m² for standard living spaces; if in doubt, seek advice

Professional tips for a perfect installation

Tip 1: Photograph the installation plan—it helps prevent damage during future drilling

Tip 2: Test the heating mat with a multimeter before, during, and after installation

Tip 3: Use a protective conduit for the floor sensor—it allows later replacement without removing the tiles

Tip 4: Lay the power cable in a conduit—it makes future repairs easier

Tip 5: Do not install the thermostat in direct sunlight—it will distort the temperature measurement

Increase energy efficiency – save on operating costs

Tip 1: Use intelligent time programs

Bathroom example:

  • 06:00–08:00: 24°C (morning routine)
  • 08:00–18:00: 16°C (daytime setback)
  • 18:00–22:00: 22°C (evening routine)
  • 22:00–06:00: 16°C (night setback)

Savings: Up to 40% compared with continuous operation

Tip 2: Room-by-room control

Each room has its own thermostat – heat only the rooms you use. Heat the guest WC only when needed, the main bathroom daily, and the kitchen as required.

Savings: Up to 30% through targeted heating

Tip 3: Choose setback temperatures correctly

Do not switch it off completely – a slight reduction (16–18°C) is more efficient than letting the room cool completely and reheating it.

Savings: Up to 20% through optimized temperature reduction

Tip 4: Use surplus photovoltaic electricity

Use a smart-home thermostat to heat automatically when your PV system produces surplus electricity (at midday). The heat is stored in the screed.

Savings: Up to 70% through self-consumption (€0.10/kWh instead of €0.30/kWh)

Tip 5: Choose the optimal floor temperature

Do not set the temperature too high – a floor temperature of 22–24°C is entirely sufficient. Each additional degree costs approximately 6% more energy.

Savings: Up to 12% by choosing a moderate temperature

Tip 6: Combine with good insulation

Underfloor heating beneath poorly insulated rooms loses a great deal of energy downwards. Insulation beneath the heating mat, where possible, increases efficiency.

Savings: Up to 25% through insulation underneath

Sustainability & the environment – heating with a clear conscience

Combination with renewable energy

Photovoltaics: Use your own solar power for heating – CO₂-neutral and cost-effective

Green electricity: Obtain electricity from renewable sources – heat with 100% climate neutrality

Heat pump: Combine electric underfloor heating with a heat pump – highly efficient and environmentally friendly

Long service life reduces resource consumption

A service life of 30–40 years means: install once, use for decades – no regular replacement as with other heating systems.

No refrigerants, no oil, no gas

Electric underfloor heating requires no environmentally harmful refrigerants, fossil fuels, or leak-prone systems. Clean, safe, sustainable.

Recyclable materials

Copper pipes and plastic insulation are fully recyclable – no hazardous-waste issues at the end of their service life.

Legal information & standards

Electrical installation in accordance with VDE standards

Electric underfloor heating must be installed by a certified electrician in accordance with VDE 0100. Installing the heating mat yourself is permitted, but the electrical connection must be carried out by a qualified professional.

German Building Energy Act (GEG)

Electric underfloor heating can be recognized as a heating system under the German Building Energy Act (GEG) if it is powered by renewable energy (e.g., photovoltaics or green electricity). Combined with a heat pump or PV system, it meets modern energy standards.

Tenancy law & condominiums

Tenants: Installing electric underfloor heating requires the landlord’s consent (structural alteration)

Owners: In condominiums, you are free to decide for your own unit—no approval from the owners’ association is required

Removal: When moving out, removal may be required—but in practice it is usually not feasible (when installed beneath tiles)

Insurance & liability

Building insurance: Electric underfloor heating is part of the building structure and is included in building insurance

Professional installation: Have the installation documented by professional contractors—important in the event of an insurance claim

Warranty claims: Only with professional installation by certified contractors
