With electric vehicles becoming more popular many homeowners are also considering electrical heating as a step towards a more sustainable lifestyle.

Key Benefits of Electrical Heating:

  • Safety: Unlike gas heating systems electrical heating has no risk of carbon monoxide leaks, it’s safer for your home.

  • Easy Installation: Electrical heating systems are quicker and easier to install than other heating options, less labour costs and installation time.

  • Low Maintenance: These systems require less maintenance than traditional heating methods, fewer service calls and lower maintenance costs.

Thermostatic Controls – Get the Most Out of Your Heating

Thermostatic controls are a key component of modern electrical heating systems. They control the temperature of electric heating systems by controlling the flow of electricity based on temperature readings so you get consistent comfort while using less energy.

Types of Thermostatic Controls:

  1. Programmable Thermostats: These thermostats allow you to set different temperatures for different times of the day or week. Perfect for homeowners who want to reduce energy use when they are not home or during sleep hours.

  2. Smart Thermostats: Smart thermostats have advanced features like remote control via smartphone apps, learning ability to adapt to your schedule and integration with smart home systems. They give you more flexibility and can save you more energy by optimizing heating schedules based on real time usage patterns.

  3. Digital Non-Programmable Thermostats: These thermostats are easy to use and allow manual control of the temperature. Perfect for homeowners who want simple hands on control of their heating system.

Choosing the right thermostatic control is important for your home’s electrical heating system. At Elpro Electric we will guide you through the options and help you choose a thermostat that suits your lifestyle and energy saving goals.

Underfloor Heating – Luxury and Efficiency

Electric underfloor heating is becoming more and more popular among Vancouver homeowners to get more comfort and energy efficiency. These systems involve installing heating cables or mats under the floor surface to provide gentle and even heat distribution throughout a room.

Benefits of Underfloor Heating:

  • Even Heat Distribution: Underfloor heating eliminates cold spots by providing heat across the entire floor surface, it’s a more comfortable living space.

  • Space Saving: Unlike traditional heating systems that require bulky radiators or vents underfloor heating is hidden under the floor, freeing up wall and floor space.

  • Better Air Quality: Since underfloor heating doesn’t use forced air circulation it reduces the spread of dust and allergens, better indoor air quality.

  • Energy Efficiency: Electric underfloor heating systems are very efficient, they convert almost all the electricity used into heat, this can lead to big energy savings over time.

Things to Consider for Underfloor Heating Installation:

  • Installation Methods: Proper installation is key to underfloor heating systems. This means laying out the heating cables or mats evenly and making sure they are in the right position to provide even heat distribution.

  • Electrical Requirements: Underfloor heating systems require a dedicated electrical circuit to handle the load safely. Our electricians will ensure your home’s electrical system is ready for the extra load.

  • Thermal Properties of Flooring Materials: The type of flooring material can affect underfloor heating systems. For example tile and stone are good conductors of heat and work well with underfloor heating, carpet and wood need extra consideration to ensure heat transfer.

At Elpro Electric we have been installing electric underfloor heating systems in all types of homes. We take care of everything from planning and electrical preparation to installation and testing to ensure your system is safe and efficient.
