Underfloor Heating Tips for Melbourne

Melbourne's cold winters make whole-house hydronic underfloor heating a popular choice in new builds — hydronic systems integrated with a gas boiler or heat pump provide the most cost-effective whole-house heating

Victorian terrace homes in inner Melbourne are excellent candidates for retrofit electric underfloor heating in bathrooms and kitchens — existing tiles can often be lifted and relaid over the heating mat

Melbourne's strong building industry means good availability of specialist UFH installers — compare at least three quotes as pricing varies significantly between companies

Energy Victoria may offer rebates for heat pump-powered hydronic underfloor heating — check current incentive programs before specifying a system
