Underfloor heating,

This isn't the most efficient method, why do you think that
you should want it



Personally I'd want it because:

a) There's no radiators around the walls so more scope for arranging
furniture

b) I like warm floors on a cold winters morning :-)

Yup. Its not actually that much more expensive to run if you pay
attention to insulation.


You don't need this expensive form of heating if you do pay attention to
insulation and superinsulate the place.


Bull****. Requirements for fresh
air mean that you need to have air
cahnges.

What tripe. An air tight superinsulated house will require some sort of
ventilatiion. Heat Recovery ventilation is installed. Have the ducting
uprated and an in-line heater battery in the ductwork and no UFH is required
whatsoever. I know of no superinsulated house that uses underfloor heating.
It is just an expensive overkill. Your house is not superinsulated.

Do some research and stop making things up.
