Welcome to UHMA

UHMA is the UK trade association for all forms of radiant heating.

Underfloor heating is more popular than ever. Month by month, year by year the number of systems installed rises to a new record level.

But underfloor heating technology is more than a fashion, far more than a succession of peaks on a sales graph. It is the intelligent, green choice for heating Britain's buildings in the 21st Century.

Integrating the heating system into the very fabric of the building creates a harmony of form and function that puts every square centimetre of floor and wall space to practical use. Heating from the floor upwards harnesses the basic principles of physics to create a better standard of comfort, while using less energy.

Warm water and electric systems are now available for all types of project and all types of floors. Underfloor heating already serves buildings all across the UK from offices and hospitals to schools and museums; from great castles and palaces to family homes.

Whether you are a building professional or a homeowner, on this site we will try to help you bring the benefits of underfloor heating to your project.
