At Hurston Mill<\/strong>, a period property in rural West Sussex, homeowners Mr. and Mrs. Whitbread<\/strong> were extending their home to include a new dining room and wet room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Because the property is located off the mains gas network<\/strong>, traditional wet heating systems were not an option. The homeowners wanted an energy-efficient electric underfloor heating system<\/strong> that could act as the sole source of heating<\/strong>, while keeping the design of the extension clean and free from radiators or wall-mounted units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It was also essential that the installation process caused minimal disruption to the ongoing building work and did not increase the overall floor height.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Through our subsidiary Heatmat<\/strong>, Heatcom Group<\/strong> designed and supplied a dual underfloor heating system tailored to the unique requirements of the extension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the dining room, Heatmat specified a 6 mm Red In-screed heating cable<\/strong> laid directly onto reinforcement fabric<\/strong>, providing steady and consistent warmth through the screed bed. This solution acts as the main heat source while maintaining an even floor temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the wet room, 200 W\/m\u00b2 heating mats<\/strong> were installed over 10 mm insulation boards<\/strong> for a faster heat-up time and improved energy efficiency. Both systems are managed by NGT programmable thermostat timers<\/strong>, offering precise temperature control and clear energy-use feedback in pounds and pence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The combination of low build height<\/strong>, smart controls<\/strong>, and high thermal efficiency<\/strong> made the system ideal for this off-gas property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The installation was completed efficiently by Arun Builders<\/strong>, with Heatmat\u2019s technical team providing guidance on-site. Both the dining room and wet room systems were installed in under half a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The homeowners immediately noticed the difference \u2014 the dining room now provides consistent warmth, while the wet room reaches a comfortable floor temperature in under 30 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This project demonstrates how Heatcom Group<\/strong>, through Heatmat<\/strong>, delivers effective, low-profile heating solutions perfectly suited for properties without access to gas heating.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" At Hurston Mill in West Sussex, Heatcom Group \u2014 through its subsidiary Heatmat \u2014 delivered an off-gas underfloor heating system for a residential extension.
