How we do it
Good underfloor heating installation starts with integration into the work
Underfloor heating is efficient and comfortable, but success depends on correct installation: substrate preparation, choosing a system suited to the floor and project, coordinating plumbing or electrics and carefully laying flooring over the system. Royal Imbau integrates it into the construction work so everything is coordinated and well executed.
Electric underfloor heating
Quickly installed heating mats or cables, ideal for bathroom, kitchen or individual-room renovations. Low consumption in small areas and easy integration beneath ceramic or porcelain flooring.
Hydronic underfloor heating
Hot-water pipe system connected to a boiler or heat pump. Greater energy efficiency over large areas. Requires more screed height and coordination with plumbing.
Integration with flooring
Adhesive choice, layer thickness and floor type determine correct operation without risk of cracking or detachment.
Underfloor heating integrated into all types of work
Bathroom renovations with underfloor heating
Electric underfloor heating beneath showers or bathroom floors, integrated with waterproofing, tiling and final finishes.
Underfloor heating in living rooms or bedrooms
Electric or hydronic systems for main rooms. Compatible with porcelain, ceramic and other low-thermal-resistance floors.
Installation in new builds or renovations
We integrate underfloor heating into new builds or full renovations where opening the floor allows proper installation without improvisation.
Typical scope
What underfloor heating installation in Alicante includes
The exact scope depends on the system, space and construction context; these are the typical tasks.
Assessment and system selection
Analysing space, use, flooring and project to recommend the best system (electric or hydronic).
Substrate preparation
Cleaning and preparing the screed, levelling and correcting irregularities before system installation.
Electric system installation
Installing heating mats or cables with controlled spacing, thermostat and correct electrical connection.
Hydronic system installation
Installing cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) pipes fixed to mesh, connecting the manifold and pressure testing.
Mortar or self-levelling layer
Applying bonding or self-levelling mortar to cover the system and prepare the flooring substrate.
Waterproofing (in wet areas)
Waterproofing bathrooms or other wet areas before tiling where required by the system.
Flooring installation
Installing ceramic or porcelain flooring with flexible adhesive suitable for underfloor heating and correct movement joints.
Thermostat programming
Setting up temperature controls and testing the complete system.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions about underfloor heating in Alicante
What is the difference between electric and hydronic underfloor heating?
Electric systems use mains-connected heating mats or cables, are easier to install and suit small areas. Hydronic systems use hot-water pipes, are more efficient over large areas, but need a boiler or heat pump connection.
What flooring is compatible with underfloor heating?
Ceramic and porcelain are most recommended because of low thermal resistance. Use special flexible adhesive for underfloor heating and respect movement joints.
Can you install underfloor heating during a bathroom renovation?
Yes. We integrate electric underfloor heating into bathroom renovations, coordinating substrate, waterproofing and final tiling.
Can underfloor heating be installed without removing the existing floor?
It depends on floor condition and available height. During the visit we assess feasibility or whether flooring must be removed for correct installation.
Do you work throughout Alicante province?
We work in Alicante and other Costa Blanca towns depending on the project and availability.
Is the quote non-binding?
Yes. We visit, assess and prepare a proposal before starting. No commitment.
