The other problem is that the thermal lag really isn't suited to variable climates like Britain since it behaves like a giant storage heater - Get a sudden warm, sunny day and you're still heating the house when it isn't needed; get a sudden chill after a few nice days and you're using other sources of heat anyway while you wait for the underfloor system to get back up to temperature.

If you are serious about it, you are better installing zoned wet underfloor heating. Thats proper, effective heating.
