Underfloor Heating Market Report 2026

The underfloor heating market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $5.47 billion in 2025 to $5.78 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing use of traditional heating systems, reliance on imported heating components, expansion in residential and commercial construction, rising awareness of indoor comfort solutions, availability of low-cost electric heating products.

The underfloor heating market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.3 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of energy-efficient heating, rising integration of smart thermostats and IoT systems, growth in retrofit heating installations, advancements in heating cable and piping materials, increasing regulatory focus on sustainable building technologies. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing demand for energy-efficient heating solutions, rising adoption of thermostat-controlled heating systems, growth in retrofit underfloor heating installations, expansion of low-temperature heating technologies, increasing use of advanced piping and heating cable materials.

Strong government support and incentives for adopting underfloor heating solutions are driving market growth. Governments worldwide are offering grants and incentives to upgrade existing heating systems and promote renewable-source heating solutions. For instance, in October 2024, a report from the Cabinet Office, a UK-based ministerial department, highlighted that the largest provider of formula grant funding is the Department for Education (DfE), which allocated $73.1 billion in grants for the 2022-2023 financial year. Following the DfE, significant funding also comes from the Home Office, with a $5.1 billion Police Main Grant, and the Department of Health and Social Care, which provided a $3.4 billion Public Health Ring-fenced Grant for the same period. These government initiatives and grant schemes are expected to significantly boost the underfloor heating solutions market during the forecast period.

Key players in the underfloor heating market are focusing on developing innovative solutions, such as advanced electric underfloor heating systems, to improve energy efficiency and deliver consistent, comfortable warmth. These systems consist of thin, flexible heating mats or cables installed beneath floor surfaces, providing uniform, energy-efficient heating that helps reduce energy costs, eliminates the need for bulky radiators, and enhances overall comfort. For example, in October 2024, Ambiente Heating Ltd., a UK-based heating solutions company, introduced the JoFloor 28 underfloor heating system. The JoFloor 28 features ultra-thin heating mats compatible with tile, laminate, and engineered wood floors, offering rapid heat-up times, precise temperature control, and minimal maintenance requirements. Its easy installation and integration with smart thermostats make it suitable for both new builds and renovations, combining efficiency with modern convenience.

In October 2024, Purmo Group, a Finland-based provider of heating and cooling solutions, acquired Unitherm Heating Systems Ltd for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is intended to enhance Purmo Group's solution-selling strategy and strengthen its presence in the United Kingdom and Ireland, where Unitherm has a solid market foothold. By integrating Unitherm's expertise, Purmo Group aims to expand its product offerings, including advanced heating and cooling solutions such as underfloor heating systems. Unitherm Heating Systems Ltd, based in Ireland, specializes in the design, supply, commissioning, and servicing of integrated heating solutions, focusing particularly on air-to-water heat pumps, ventilation systems, underfloor heating, and a variety of aluminum and steel radiators.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

Tariffs are affecting the underfloor heating market by increasing the cost of imported heating cables, mats, thermostats, and hydronic system components, resulting in higher installation expenses and longer project lead times across residential, commercial, and institutional sectors. Regions relying heavily on imported electrical components and polymer-based piping, especially Europe and Asia-Pacific, face more pronounced disruptions. Nevertheless, tariffs can support domestic production of heating technologies, encourage localized supply chains, and stimulate innovation in cost-efficient, energy-saving heating systems.

This underfloor heating market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.

Underfloor heating systems warm floors or act as primary heat sources by circulating lower-temperature warm water through pipes beneath finished floors. Intelligent thermostats regulate and maintain consistent temperatures across properties or individual zones.

The primary categories of underfloor heating are hydronic and electric systems. Hydronic systems involve a network of pipes circulating hot water from a boiler beneath the floor, effectively heating the room through the substrate. Electric systems utilize heating cables for comfortable radiant heating, commonly applied in both new and refurbished commercial buildings. Installations come in two forms: new installations for new constructions and retrofit installations for existing structures. Underfloor heating finds applications in residential, commercial, institutional, and industrial settings.Western Europe was the largest region in the underfloor heating market share in 2025.
