Why Choose Radiant Floor Heating?Comfort - Follows ideal heat curve by delivering the temperature needed to perfectly meet our bodies’ demand.
- Warm cozy floors
Efficiency - Conservative savings of 15%, typically 20 to 50%
- Requires lower thermostat settings (typically 68°F). 1°F decrease in thermostat setting equals 3% efficiency savings.
- Requires lower water temperatures than conventional high temperature hydronic heating systems (baseboard of radiator). 3°F decrease in water temperatures equals 1% efficiency savings.
System ExpectationsFloor Heating - Maintains desired room temperature
- Typically primary heat source
- Multiple zones with superior efficient control strategy
Floor Warming / Conditioning - Maintains desired floor surface temperature
- Typically applied year round with tile floors for the cold mornings
Radiant Rough-In - Already installing thermal mass with concrete slabs? You can easily install tubing for radiant hook up at a later date.
- New construction (i.e. tubing installed in slab pours)
