Radiant Floor Heating
With radiant floor heating, you will hardly know it’s there. No loud vents whooshing air. No clanking radiators in the night. You simply enjoy a blanket of heat where you want it. Far more than just aesthetics, radiant floor heating is a highly efficient way to heat your home that increases comfort as it reduces energy costs.
Radiant Floor Heating vs. Forced Air Heating
Radiant floor heating utilizes hot-water tubes or electric wires that are buried underneath the floor. As these tubes or wires heat up, thermal radiation rises from below, warming up objects they strike, which then radiate heat. Air temperature remains constant, but you stay comfortable because the surrounding surfaces aren’t stealing the warmth from your body.
In a forced air heating system, air blows out of registers at 120 degrees and rises to the top of the room. The air cools as it drops down from the ceiling, shrouding your head in warmth while your toes remain cold. In addition, you may have variations in temperature. You experience warmth as air is pumping from the system, and then chill when the hot air stops pumping. With radiant floor heating, there are no variations. The warm air rises evenly over the entire floor, keeping the coolest air at the ceiling where it belongs.
