Default Electric Underfloor Heating - AHT Heating


wrote in message
oups.com...
Hi all,
I am new to this and I am only posting my question after reading a
bunch of threads regarding the electric underfloor heating. I am
rennovating a large apt (230 m2) and I am looking into underfloor
heating. I am between the conventional water pipe system vs the
electric heating system.

My question is really if someone out there has used the AHT-Heating
systems which seem promising and promise great energy savings (assuming
a well insulated house). The edge of this technology is that it uses an
amorpous alloy ribbon that increases the actual heat transfer area over
more widely used wires and has a much lower profile of 20-30 microns.

Has anyone used this system? I would like to hear some comments on it.

Thanks for your input.

The laws of physics tell me the amount of heat you get out is the same as
the heat you put in. This sounds like snake oil. Go for the most reliable
system. The idea of an "amorphous alloy" sounds very worrying!
