New Zealand's Trusted Electric Underfloor Heating Supplier

Warmup has been supplying electric underfloor heating systems to homes and commercial properties across New Zealand for years, drawing on more than 30 years of global heating expertise. The result is steady, radiant warmth that starts at the floor and spreads evenly through the room.

Radiant floor heating turns the floor itself into a gentle heat source, so a room feels warm the moment you walk in. There’s no fan noise, no blown air and no cold patches. As the heat rises from underfoot rather than from the ceiling, it holds a comfortable temperature while using less energy — and helps cut down on the dampness and condensation common in older Kiwi homes.

Whether you’re renovating a bathroom in Wellington or building a new home in Hamilton, Warmup has an underfloor heating system to suit the job. Our New Zealand-based team provides on-the-ground support from specification through to installation, and every system pairs with a Warmup thermostat — including WiFi-enabled controllers with app-based scheduling on premium models.

FAQs about Underfloor Heating in New Zealand

A: Cost depends on room size, system type and whether a registered electrician is carrying out the install. For a bathroom of 5–8 square metres, a complete undertile system including thermostat is estimated to fall between $700 and $1,200 NZD — this figure was scaled from Warmup AU’s published AUD range and has not been confirmed against actual NZ retail pricing.

A: Modern electric underfloor heating is one of the more energy-efficient ways to heat a room. Paired with a thermostat and a sensible schedule, a heated bathroom floor is estimated to cost roughly 15 to 40 cents per day to run, though this has not been checked against current NZ electricity rates and should be verified before publishing.

30 cents per day to run.

A: Warmup offers systems designed for every floor type common in New Zealand homes, including tile, stone, timber, laminate and carpet.

A: This depends on the system type and floor covering. Undertile systems under ceramic tile typically reach a comfortable temperature within roughly 25 to 45 minutes from a cold start.

A: Yes. Under New Zealand electrical safety regulations, a registered electrician must carry out the final connections to the thermostat and power supply.

A: It can help. Keeping floor surfaces consistently warm reduces the cold surfaces that contribute to condensation, supporting a drier, more comfortable room. Note: New Zealand’s Healthy Homes Standards set specific requirements for a fixed heater in the main living room, based on a calculated heating capacity (checked against MBIE’s Heating Assessment Tool) — Warmup has not confirmed whether underfloor heating meets this specific legal definition, so this FAQ should not claim or imply Healthy Homes compliance. Confirm with a compliance specialist before making any regulatory claim on the live site.

A: For most homeowners, yes. It adds everyday comfort in bathrooms, kitchens and living areas, and is increasingly specified in new builds and renovations nationwide.
