Underfloor heating offers many advantages that make it possible to get the most out of an aerothermal air-conditioning system. The initial investment is amortised in a few years thanks to the multi-purpose function of underfloor heating, which provides air conditioning in both winter and summer.
The operation of underfloor heating is based on a circuit of water pipes that runs through the floor of the home and is able to heat it at low temperatures between 30° and 40°.
Benefits
Space
Its concealed location under the floor makes it possible to make use of the space that would be taken up by other heating systems in the rooms.
Distribution
They are evenly distributed throughout the room, taking advantage of the entire surface area. This feature allows the heat to reach the room evenly by radiation, avoiding having some areas warmer than others. In the case of high temperature radiators, we have a spotlight that heats gradually depending on its location.
Thermal inertia
The thermal inertia of underfloor heating is another feature that makes this system one of the most efficient. Both the pipe circuit itself and the materials of the floor in which it is located allow the heat to be retained for longer, even after the equipment has been switched off.
Temperature
To obtain a room temperature of 20°C, the water in a conventional radiator needs to reach around 70°C (the so-called flow temperature).
In the case of underfloor heating, this is achieved at temperatures between 30° and 40°C. This difference leads to a reduction in the energy required to heat the home and thus to financial savings.

Aerothermics, the renewable energy that air-conditions your home
Aerothermal energy is a renewable, inexhaustible and free energy that comes from the air and allows us to obtain heating, air conditioning and domestic hot water.
How does Aerothermics work?
- The atmosphere captures the energy emitted by the sun.
- Heat Pump technology captures that renewable energy from the air.
- That energy is used in our home through the outdoor unit which sends it to the indoor unit.
- The indoor unit heats the water and produces heating and domestic hot water.
- In summer, the heat from our home is sent outside to produce air conditioning.
Aerothermics makes it easier to integrate the use of renewable energies in the domestic environment and the consequent reduction of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.
