Somehow, we always assumed that underfloor heating is practically standard in new builds nowadays.
However, in the specification from Kern-Haus, we have now seen that this is not the case. Kern-Haus plans to install a Wolf gas-solar heating system "CSZ-2" and panel radiators.
Out of curiosity, we asked what it would cost to upgrade to underfloor heating for a house of about 150 m² (1600 sq ft), but we have not received an answer yet. We would also welcome any estimates or opinions from here 🙂
Personally, I am not really a fan of underfloor heating. We currently have it here, and I find it extremely difficult to find the perfect temperature. I prefer a radiator because I can turn it off or on exactly as needed. My husband tends to prefer underfloor heating.
Of course, radiators take up some space, and the appearance is a matter of personal taste.
Are radiators really considered outdated, or are there still others who could imagine having them in a new build?

It doesn’t change the fact that I’m still not a fan of underfloor heating, but today we received an update from our contact person that the latest construction and equipment specification now includes underfloor heating as standard.
That said, are you all really satisfied with the underfloor heating? We often find it either too warm or too cold. When we ventilate, it actually gets even warmer afterwards 🙁

Yes, very satisfied indeed... in my humble opinion, there is no more comfortable and energy-efficient heating system than underfloor heating.
Contrary to popular belief, it is also possible to have different room temperatures with it... you just need to plan for it in advance and not build according to the "we've always done it this way" approach...

Is it probably very dependent on a good thermostat?No, it depends on the correct and desired system settings.
I don’t have separate thermostats in the rooms, yet the bedrooms are cooler than the living areas.
