Underfloor Heating London - wet systems

Before applying the screed, it's essential to properly lay out and securely fasten the hot water pipes.  Here are some of the most popular systems used to ensure your underfloor heating is installed correctly and efficiently:

1. Tacker System – Cost-effective and easy to install with clips.
2. Clip Rail System – Precise pipe placement for maximum efficiency.
3. Castellated Panels – Space-saving design with quick and easy installation.
4. Grooved Insulation – Low-profile, perfect for tight spaces.
5. Mesh System (Water) – A reliable and precise solution for wet systems.
6. Aluminium Panel System – Ideal for timber and suspended floors.
7. Routed Chipboards – Durable, moisture-resistant boards for excellent heat performance.

Each system has its unique advantages depending on your project needs.

Tacker The Tacker system is one of the most popular and cost-effective ways to install underfloor heating pipes. It's especially ideal for attaching pipes to foil-faced polystyrene insulation. Installation is simple and efficient: the pipes are unrolled and secured using special clips, which are driven into the insulation with a dedicated Tacker tool. ✅ Affordable ✅ Quick to install ✅ Reliable hold That’s why it’s the go-to method for many professionals across the industry. tacker underfloor system2 tacker underfloor system4 tacker underfloor system6 tacker underfloor system9 tacker underfloor system20 tacker underfloor system21 tacker underfloor system22 tacker underfloor system24   More photos on our projects page

Clip Rail   The Clip Rail system offers a precise and reliable method for installing underfloor heating pipes. Rails are laid on top of insulation and the pipes are simply clipped into place. This method ensures a clean, accurate layout – ideal for large or open spaces where consistent pipe spacing is key. ✅ Precise pipe positioning ✅ Neat and organized layout ✅ Perfect for high-efficiency systems A professional choice when accuracy and performance matter. clip rail underfloor heating1 clip rail underfloor heating2 clip rail underfloor heating3 clip rail underfloor heating4 clip rail underfloor heating5 clip rail underfloor heating6 clip rail underfloor heating7 clip rail underfloor heating8   More photos on our projects page

Castellated panels   Castellated panels offer a smart, space-saving solution for underfloor heating installations. The panels have raised knobs that securely hold the pipes in place, making layout quick and precise. With a low profile of just 65mm (including the pipe), they’re perfect for renovations or where floor height is limited. ✅ Slim design – only 65mm high ✅ Fast and easy installation ✅ Even heat distribution ✅ Great for tight spaces or retrofits A clever system that combines precision with practicality.     castellated panels underfloor heating1 castellated panels underfloor heating2 castellated panels underfloor heating3 castellated panels underfloor heating4 castellated panels underfloor heating5 castellated panels underfloor heating6 castellated panels underfloor heating7 castellated panels underfloor heating8   More photos on our projects page

Grooved insulation   Grooved insulation boards come with pre-formed channels that hold the underfloor heating pipes in place. The pipes are simply pressed into the grooves, making installation quick and tidy. This system is ideal when you need to keep the total floor build-up as low as possible. ✅ Ultra-low installation height ✅ Clean and simple pipe layout ✅ Perfect for renovations or limited floor depths A sleek solution for modern, space-conscious projects. grooved insulation4 grooved insulation5 grooved insulation6 grooved insulation7 grooved insulation8 grooved insulation9 grooved insulation10 grooved insulation11   More photos on our projects page

Mesh  The Mesh system for water underfloor heating uses a reinforcing steel mesh or grid to fix the pipes securely in place before screeding. The pipes are tied to the mesh using cable ties, allowing for flexible layout and strong stability. It’s a solid choice for larger projects, especially where concrete screed will be poured over the system. ✅ Strong and stable pipe fixing ✅ Flexible layout design ✅ Ideal for screeded floors ✅ Works well in large or open-plan spaces A dependable and versatile solution for traditional wet systems. mesh1 mesh2 mesh3 mesh4 mesh5 mesh6 mesh7 mesh36   More photos on our projects page

Alu Plates  This system uses grooved aluminium panels to hold hot water pipes securely in place. The grooves provide a stable layout and excellent heat transfer across the floor surface. It’s typically used in suspended joist floors, including sprung or acoustic floors with cradle and batten systems. ✅ Perfect for timber floor constructions ✅ Great thermal conductivity ✅ Available in 150mm, or 200mm pipe spacing ✅ Ideal for both low and high temperature systems A high-performance option for floors that can’t take screed.   alu plates1 alu plates2 alu plates4 alu plates8 alu plates20 alu plates23 alu plates24 alu plates27   More photos on our projects page

Routed Chipboards    Routed chipboards are a practical solution for underfloor heating, featuring specially carved grooves to securely hold hot water pipes. These boards are moisture-resistant and highly durable, ensuring long-lasting performance. Whether you're installing in a new build or renovating an existing space, routed chipboards offer excellent heating efficiency. ✅ Durable and moisture-resistant ✅ Easy pipe installation with precise grooves ✅ Perfect for new builds or renovations ✅ Efficient heat distribution A solid choice for efficient and reliable underfloor heating. routed chipoboards1 routed chipoboards2 routed chipoboards3 routed chipoboards4 routed chipoboards5 routed chipoboards6 routed chipoboards7 routed chipoboards8   More photos on our projects page
