Electrician in Stockholm
Cold tiled floors in a flat's bathroom or a terraced house's hall become comfortable with the right electrical connection. We connect electric underfloor heating and fit a thermostat with a floor sensor in flats, terraced houses and detached houses throughout Stockholm — at a fixed price, ready to use as soon as the floor is laid. You will receive a suggested time as soon as the booking is in.
The sensor in the floor measures where the heat actually is, not up by the wall. This gives even comfort, protects the flooring from overheating and keeps consumption down. We connect the heating mat, fit the thermostat and run a test before we leave — and you receive a resistance log of the heating element as a receipt that everything is correctly done.
We connect electric underfloor heating. Hydronic underfloor heating with a manifold and circulation pump is plumbing work and is not included in our work. If you are installing electric heating in a bathroom or hall, we are who you book. In older Stockholm properties it can be unclear what is already in the floor — if you are unsure, send a photo in the booking and we will advise before we come.
Electric underfloor heating in bathroom and hall is comfort heating: it is meant to take the edge off cold tiles, not heat the whole home. With a floor sensor, correctly set thermostat and ideally a time schedule — warm in the morning and evening, reduced when no one is home during the working day — the running cost is a fraction of what a floor running at full power draws. We set the thermostat sensibly from the start so you do not have to fiddle with it yourself.
Usually not. The thermostat and floor sensor fail far more often than the heating element in the floor. We measure the element's values, replace the thermostat or sensor when that is sufficient and give an honest assessment. Tearing up a newly tiled bathroom floor in a flat is the last resort, not the first suggestion — and in a housing association there are usually rules about interference in wet rooms to take into account as well.
Wet shoes, slush and dripping umbrellas are part of a city autumn. A warm tiled floor in the hall dries itself, shoes dry faster and the floor stays fresh — it is one of the most common places we connect underfloor heating, both in terraced houses and flats. We work to code and respect wet zones and zone rules where the hall borders the bathroom.
The mat or cable is laid as part of the floor build, usually by the tiler or floor layer. We do the electrical side: measure the element before and after, fit the thermostat with floor sensor and connect — with a resistance log as a receipt that the element is intact and correctly connected.
Yes, there are Wi-Fi thermostats with app control and weekly programmes. Tell us in the booking if you want one instead of the standard thermostat so we can take that into account when we come.
Often, and more cheaply than you might think. A tired thermostat without a working sensor can let the floor run unnecessarily — replacing it with a modern thermostat with floor sensor and a time schedule usually shows up immediately in consumption, without the floor needing to be touched.
