Temperature Solutions specialises in providing in-floor radiant heating systems for residential and commercial premises. 

We offer the full service including system design, supply and installation.

Radiant in-floor heating systems are also known as hydronic heating.

Hydronic heating systems provide under floor heating using the latest in energy efficient water heating and heat pump technology.  If you are seeking a dry, warm and healthy home or office – then our energy efficient radiant in-floor heating system may be the perfect solution for you.

The in-floor heating system can sometimes be described as the ultimate in comfort.  Our in-concrete, under floor heating system is a water-fed system.  It utilises a hot water heat pump to produce an energy efficient primary heat source. 

What’s more, this solution is suitable for both residential homes and some commercial buildings.

> The Benefits of a Radiant In-Floor  Heating System
Our in-floor hydronic heating system turns the concrete floor of your home into a large radiator from which warmth emanates into each room.  The heat is then transmitted and absorbed throughout the home or office. 

> The key benefits of hydronic or in-floor heating include:

• Home Comfort - ultimate, house-wide comfort
• Energy savings – from using heat pump technology as the primary energy source
• Clean and quiet operation
• Design flexibility
• Unobtrusive installation

> How it Works
The hot water produced by the hot water heat pump is reticulated through a series of pipe circuits which are built into the make up of the concrete floor slab during the construction phase.

This type of system offers zoned control.  Each zone is heated by hot water circulating through pipe circuits which are embedded in the concrete floor slab.  These pipe circuits are brought together at a manifold. 

The manifold consists of a series of valves and these zone valves are controlled by a programmable controller which uses probes to monitor the actual floor temperature.

>Energy Savings
The energy efficiency and cost savings from a hot water heat pump system are impressive. 

For example, running a hot water heat pump suitable for heating a 220m² home requires a system with approximately an 11KW heat output.

With a hydronic heating system, the same home would use only 2.5KW of electrical energy.  This energy would heat the under floor water system to approximately 30ºC.  This heated water is continuously heated and circulated throughout the house, maintaining room temperatures near 21ºC.  All while the outdoor temperature is at a chilly 4ºC.

The heat pump would need to run on average for 10 hours/day, resulting in an average daily running cost of $4/day.  This is based on an electricity cost of 16c/kWh.

> Hot Water Heat Pumps You Can Rely On
At Temperature Solutions we design our hot water in-floor hydronic systems to incorporate only well proven and supported brands such as Daikin and Mitsubishi.

Both brands come with a manufacturer’s 5 year warranty.  Furthermore, both the in-floor components and the under floor pipe work is backed by a 25 year manufacturer’s warranty.

> Design Information Required
Each hydronic heating system is individually designed and takes into consideration a number of factors including the respective floor and desired zoning requirements. 

For Temperature Solutions to design your specific hydronic in-floor heating system, we will need the following information:

• A floor plan of the proposed building/home.
• The preferred location for the heat pump outdoor unit.
• The construction programme.
• Room zoning requirements.
