The smart hidden heating solution that replaces radiators, storage heaters and underfloor heating.

Reclaim every wall

At just 20mm thick, it projects less than traditional timber skirting. Place your furniture anywhere without blocking the heat source.

Even heat distribution

Creates a thermal envelope around the perimeter. BSRIA testing shows less than 1°C variance across the room, identical to underfloor heating.

Works with heat pumps

Designed for low flow temperatures (35–45°C). Avoids the need for massive, oversized radiators while improving heat pump efficiency.

Silent operation

No expansion clicks, ticking, banging or gurgling. Genuinely silent operation for undisturbed sleep in bedrooms.

Reclaim wall space in every room

10m²
space saved in a typical home

With nothing protruding from the walls, your furniture can go anywhere. ThermaSkirt sits just 20mm proud of the wall, less than a standard timber skirting board.

The comfort of underfloor heating, with the response of a radiator

<1°C
temperature variance across the room

Heat radiates evenly around the perimeter, eliminating hot and cold spots. Independent BSRIA testing measured less than 1°C variance edge to edge, with the warm-up speed of a radiator.

Designed to optimise heating performance

45°C
low flow temperature, ideal for heat pumps

Engineered to deliver full warmth at the lower flow temperatures heat pumps run at, where ordinary radiators struggle. Lower running costs today, future-ready warmth tomorrow.

Side-by-Side System Comparison

How ThermaSkirt compares with both traditional radiators and wet underfloor heating, so you can weigh all three at a glance.

FeatureThermaSkirtRadiatorsUnderfloor Heating
Wall & floor spaceFrees 100% of wall space, no floor build-up.Blocks wall space and dictates furniture layout.Frees walls but adds floor height and disruption.
Installation disruptionMinimal. Fits like a skirting board in 1-2 days.Moderate. Wall fixings and pipe drops per unit.Very high. Lift floors, pour screed, raise levels.
Response timeFast. Warm in 10-15 minutes, room by room.Fast. Warm in 10-15 minutes.Slow. 1-3 hours to heat the floor slab.
Heat pump efficiency (35-45°C)Excellent. Full output at low flow temperatures.Poor. Needs oversized double/triple panels.Excellent, but only viable in a new build or deep retrofit.
Retrofit costLow to medium. Uses existing pipework.Low upfront, high impact on the room.Very high. Floor removal, screed, doors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your questions answered

Is ThermaSkirt the same as underfloor heating?
It delivers the same radiant warmth but runs along the perimeter of your room in place of skirting boards, no floors lifted, no screed, no weeks of drying time.
How much does it cost compared to underfloor heating?
Significantly less in most existing properties. No floor preparation or screed means the installation cost is a fraction of wet UFH. We provide a full fixed-price quote for every project.
Will it work with my existing boiler or heat pump?
Yes. ThermaSkirt H2O connects directly to your existing central heating system, boiler, heat pump, solar or biomass. No new heat source required.
What floor types does it work with?
All of them. Because ThermaSkirt heats from the room perimeter rather than through the floor, your floor covering makes no difference, wood, tile, carpet, vinyl and stone all work perfectly.
How long does installation take?
Most properties are installed and fully operational in a single day, compared to several weeks for traditional wet underfloor heating in an existing home.
