Hello,
we are planning to build a new house with an insulated ground slab, but without underfloor heating because we want to lay industrial parquet flooring throughout, and underfloor heating could cause issues.
At the moment, we are considering a ceiling heating system. Our apartment will have an interior height of 3m (10 feet).
Is ceiling heating alone sufficient for heating? I am still concerned about the absence of underfloor heating and whether this might lead to cold feet.
Do you have any experience with this? I find radiant heat itself very comfortable.

even if you are currently buying or building a house and do not intend to sell it again, it is important to consider what the broad potential buyer group is looking for and what will be regarded as the building standard in the future. A ceiling heating system might be rather unusual and could limit the pool of interested buyers. Underfloor heating would therefore be the preferable choice! Cooling would also be possible with underfloor heating, if desired.
Best regards, Erik
