Radiant Heating - Radiant Heat - Radiant Floor Heat

If you are considering radiant floor heat for your home, then it’s always best to do your homework.

There is no doubt in my mind that radiant floor heat is a healthier and more cost efficient radiant way to heat your home.

An energy-efficient in floor heating system should lower your energy bills and save you money. In fact, I’ve seen as much as a 50% increase in energy efficiency achieved with an accurately engineered in-floor heating system.

And since a radiant heat floor generally maintains a surface heat of 85-90 degrees, most people set their thermostat lower (65 degrees) instead of the average 72 degrees with forced air. Plus with lower heat air doesn’t become as dry or as statically charged.

Not to mention, you also get the added advantage of a quiet heating system that doesn’t ping or hiss, and you never have to look at those eyesores like heating registers, vents or baseboard heaters.

Yes, a radiant heat flooring system is certainly one of the most natural ways to create a cozy environment with a stable and efficient heat source.

Sadly, many homeowners aren’t aware of all the pitfalls that can occur when installing a radiant heat system. And, they often fall prey to inexperienced General Contractors who promise the world and fail to deliver.

It takes an experienced professional to design, install and test an in-floor radiant heat system.

That’s why ... before you make any flooring decisions ... and before you sign any contracts, you should really do your homework.

I’ve seen far too many nice people get let down or ripped off because they weren’t as informed about radiant heat as they should be.

That’s why I’ve put together a great resource...
