Benefits of In-Floor Heating
More and more people are discovering
the comfort of a warm floor. Here are some benefits of in-floor heating:
 1) Maximum Heat Comfort - Radiant heat is
the most comfortable form of heat because it heats the objects in your
home rather than air. The heat radiates to your body and you feel warm and
comfortable everywhere in your home without suffering stuffy dry air.
Doesn't it make sense that the warmest part of your home should be the
floor and not your ceiling?
2) 25 -
35% Energy Savings - It is a more efficient heat and will save
you 25 to 35% of the cost of heating your home compared to conventional
electric baseboard heaters. Also, because it warms your body rather than
the air, you feel comfortable at a lower temperature so you can turn your
thermostats down and still feel warm. You will save additional energy by
using the programmable features of our thermostats which can be set to
automatically lower the temperature of the system while you are sleeping
or away from your home.
3) Silent
and Dustless - Because hot air
is not blown throughout the home, airborne germs, pollen and dust are
greatly reduced. This also means no drafts or cold areas in the home.
Additionally, your ventilation system will not pump your heated air out
since the heating system warms the objects in the house directly. This
means your house will stay warmer and fresher for much less money.
4) Dry
Floors - Especially great for kitchens, bathrooms and porches.
Warm floors means water spills dry up within minutes. Boots and winter
clothing dry quickly and bathroom floors are always warm, dry
and never slippery.
5) No Ugly
Baseboard Heaters or Air Duct Vents - Our radiant floor heat
system is more ascetically pleasing than convection or radiator style
heating systems. No concern for furniture blocking heat sources. Position
your furniture any where that looks great and fits your style.
