Underfloor heating systems provide their lucky owners with heat from under their floors – that much is clear. But in this short guide we’ll discuss what those owners can achieve with the various heating levels available on some Japanese underfloor heated floor systems.
Level 1. This level should be sufficient to keep you warm in Autumn, not too hot but probably just right. This level is what underfloor heating is actually for.
Level 2. This is a nifty little level, and is just a little bit too hot. If your mother in law (it’s always the mother in law, isn’t it?) comes round to visit and she is spending a little too much time there (i.e. she has actually walked through the front door), you can simply switch your heating to ‘2’ and she will start waving her hands in front of her and claim to be having a ‘hot flush’ even though she is far too old for that sort of thing.
Level 3. If you’re toying with the idea of having a bigger gathering, then the 3rd mark on your heat controller will be sufficient to get everyone in the mood. This is in most underfloor heating guide books, but it is usually in Italian, and doesn’t often get translated into the English section of the guidebook. The English version suggests it is a good hangover cure as it removes impurities caused by drinking large quantities of cheap Belgian lager.
