    The house is a new built with water to air heat pump, heated floors and no radiators on the ground floor.

    I am being told that both laminate and tiles can be fitted.

    Which floors are better with under floor heating? will laminated floors be a good option?

    Thanks!

    We have electric underfloor heating with various floor coverings.

    Tiles are best.

    Laminate is almost as good - must use appropriate underlay.

    Timber (engineered) is next best - also appropriate underlay.

    We have carpets in several rooms. It's ok but not great. See carpet manufacturers recommendations.
