Underfloor heating is increasingly being installed as a modern solution that brings comfort, energy efficiency, and long-term savings. However, concerns still remain: “Can this type of heating negatively affect our health, especially our veins and blood vessels?”

Floor temperature vs. body temperature

To begin with, it's important to understand the following:

Ekoss underfloor heating operates on a low-voltage system and at a low working temperature.

The floor heating temperature is around 26°C, which is approximately 10°C lower than the human body temperature (about 36°C).

Unlike traditional radiator systems, which often heat rooms at higher temperatures (creating so-called temperature spikes), underfloor heating provides even, stable, and pleasant warmth that comes from the floor – exactly where it’s most needed.

Why did the myth about harmful effects appear?

The myths about underfloor heating being harmful originate from the time when high-temperature regimes were used for both floor and radiator systems – which could cause discomfort back then.

Modern systems, such as the Ekoss 12–48V, do not use high operating temperatures, do not create sharp temperature fluctuations, and therefore pose no risk to your vascular system.

What does it feel like in practice?

Imagine this: you're walking barefoot on a floor that’s 26°C – it doesn’t feel too warm, but it gives a sense of gentle comfort. If you place one hand on such a floor and the other on a wall – only then will you notice the difference.

In other words, the warmth doesn’t impose itself, but naturally surrounds you. That’s what makes this system not only efficient but also a healthier choice.

Conclusion: healthier, more natural, safer

  • Even temperature distribution
  • No sudden temperature changes
  • No overheating of surfaces
  • Beneficial for blood vessels and circulation
  • Healthier indoor climate without dust circulation

Thanks to advanced technologies, underfloor heating is now one of the healthiest forms of heating for families, children, elderly people, and anyone who wants comfort without compromise.

If you had any doubts before – now you know that caring for your health is yet another reason to choose the Ekoss system.
