"The bottom line price"

If you receive several underfloor heating quotes from various suppliers it is inherently difficult to accurately compare on a like for like basis. It is also human nature to be drawn to the cheapest bottom line price especially if your build budget has already been stretched. At Optimum we would like to stress that our systems are always designed to a high standard and not, as so many others are, down to a low price.

Common ways of making the bottom line price seem attractive are:

  • cutting down the amount of controllable areas
  • using less pipe
  • maybe promising but not delivering on instant technical assistance
  • using inferior equipment
  • not carrying out specific room by room heat loss calculations
  • summarising but not stating the components needed

At Optimum, we can guarantee that none of the above practices are used as we believe in providing the Optimum underfloor heating system for your project, one that will provide the very best in comfort and efficiency. The above practices will reduce your controllable comfort levels and more importantly decrease the efficiency of the underfloor heating system. This last point is wholly important as the biggest cost of any heating system is the year in, year out running costs.

Once you receive your underfloor heating quote, which should be with you within five working days, one of our trained technicians will gladly answer any questions relating to your quotation and fully explain any differences between our quote and others. You will then be in a good position to make a fully informed decision.

Thank you for giving Optimum this opportunity to quote for your project, we look forward to working together.

"It is unwise to pay too much, but it is worse to pay too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money.......that is all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the things it was bought to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot......it cannot be done. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is as well to add something for the risk you run...... and if you do that, you will have enough to pay for something better."
