A perfect bathroom experience has the potential to unlock the secrets of a vibrant, energetic and positivity-filled day. There are currently multiple heating options, each with unique advantages to address varied bathroom specifications. Speedheat’s holistic, energy-efficient, and affordable bathroom heating solutions cater to homeowners’ specific needs. The idea is to provide the safest bathroom electric underfloor heating solution that does not wreak havoc with our homeowner’s expenses.
BATHROOM UNDERFLOOR HEATING: A TRIED-AND-TESTED SOLUTION
Probably the most preferred bathroom heating option among customers, an underfloor heating system from Speedheat offers the right blend of robustness and low energy consumption.
Our installation process is simple, architecture-friendly, and caters to all bathroom sizes. Housed on top of the bathroom slab, the underfloor heating unit sits below the floor covering, ensuring it is unobtrusive.
The solution is designed to heat the bathroom from the floor upwards. This, coupled with our advanced thermostat, ensures that maintaining the optimum temperature is now easier than ever! Our solutions are ideal for all floor types: cemented floors, timber/wooden floors, ceramic tiles or natural stone.
Its space-optimized design and layout are easy to install and maintain. Our expert fitment services guarantee the highest safety standards for hassle-free operations every time you enter and leave your bathroom.
A crucial advantage of underfloor bathroom heating is significantly lower maintenance with no harmful fumes or dust. Being installed under your flooring system, it is a well-insulated setup. This results in no noise or inconvenience.
UNDERFLOOR BATHROOM HEATING: THINGS TO REMEMBER
Radiation Technology: Heating through the use of radiant technology is the fastest and most effective way to heat up a bathroom. Radiant heat directly heats surfaces instead of heating the air (convection technology), which, in turn, heats the target objects. As a standard, our heaters at Speedheat are radiant heat technology instead of convection which achieves quicker heat-up times and lower electricity consumption.
Thermostat: Selecting the right thermostat is of paramount importance. This helps you adjust the bathroom temperature and regulate energy consumption. Our best-in-class Wi-Fi-enabled thermostats provide calibration flexibility to control your underfloor heating and have multiple settings so you can customise your heating to your personal requirements.
BATHROOM UNDERFLOOR HEATING COST
The bathroom underfloor heating cost is quite affordable for most floor heating requirements. Designed to consume between 80 (for living areas) and 100 watts per sqm (for bathrooms) , Speedheat’s electric underfloor heating mechanism will cost around 14c an hour for a standard 4sqm bathroom layout.
The underfloor heating unit utilizes 100 watts per sqm for the first hour for bathrooms. Once the heater reaches the preset temperature, the thermostat kicks in, maintaining the desired temperature on a 33% duty cycle of energy use.
Our innovative technology ensures that the bathroom temperature and heating remain constant, negating any spike-in electricity costs. While this number might vary depending on the size of the bathroom and electricity rates, the solution remains one of the most affordable ones in the industry.
Worried about our installation charges? Our supply kits are available from as low as $200 (including GST), and our supply and install charges start from $500.00 (including GST). The cost of the thermostat is an additional charge.
BATHROOM WALL HEATING
As technology progresses, convenience options multiply accordingly. Bathroom heating options are not just restricted to floor heating but electric wall heating solutions as well. Wall heating is best suited for compact bathroom spaces and does not require extensive structural overhauling.
While wall heating for bathrooms provides an economical option to customers, it is essential to avail of the services of an experienced electrician to have it installed. Often users are tempted to install such devices independently, as the process seems relatively straightforward. However, this should be avoided, as numerous insulation and electrical methods are only to be performed by experts.
HEATED BATHROOM TOWEL RAILS
Heated towel rails have gained widespread popularity across Australia for their novelty. Using radiation technology, heated rails add a style quotient to bathrooms while keeping towels warm and snug as you step out of the shower. There are lots of design options available depending on the size of your bathroom wall and the number of people using these rails to warm their towels.
While heated towel rails are a boon for most users during chilly winter mornings, they do not provide very high heating levels. However, this should be relatively easy, as this technology also helps remove the dampness from towels and ensure a pleasant post-bathing experience for the users.
A WIDE ARRAY OF CUSTOMIZED BATHROOM HEATING SOLUTIONS
With decades of experience in providing affordable, energy-efficient, and high-performance solutions, Speedheat is your one-stop destination for a wide range of bathroom wall heating options that are tailor-made per your specific requirements.
