In the Heat of the Night Step on Heated Floors

February 06, 2012 00:02 AM  BY  JEN HALLAM

Cold Floors are Ancient History

Warm floors all day. Think about it. Dream about it. Now make it a reality. In the dark hours of the night if you find yourself quietly slipping out of the covers and wandering your halls to hit the fridge for a little midnight snack, imagine stepping onto heated floors . . . warm, inviting, smile-producing heated floors. Radiant heated floors can make that little twilight vision a real life scenario. It would be a wonderful story to share with your co-workers in the morning. "Hey guys, listen to this. I woke up last night for a snack and walked barefoot (insert disbelieving gasp from your work mates here) to the kitchen." Barefoot? they'll all cry.

You'll go on to explain the beauty of radiant floor heating and how it made slipper-free foot paths to your kitchen. You can tell them how your radiant heated floor makes it possible to stroll, not run frantically to the bathroom in the morning. You now take your time as you saunter, toes bared, down the hall each morning. They'll have a little hint of something in their eyes as you regale them of the wonderful tales of your radiant heated floors in the heat of the night and it will look a little bit like jealousy, until you can explain to them how they could enjoy the same luxury as you with a simple radiant floor installation. Cold floors are no more, only warm, happy, shiny floors.

September 01, 2011 00:09 AM  BY  JEN HALLAM

Silent and Efficient Home Heating

The beauty of a radiant floor heating system is that it not only heats your home efficiently but it also does it silently. As opposed to the typical furnace that cranks on when in use and blasts heat through ducts surrounding your home creating a definite noise when on, a radiant floor heating systems operates quietly. Underfloor heating is so quiet you probably won’t even know when it’s on, except for the fact that you will feel the warmth. You’ll enjoy silent warmth and probably see a cost savings in the long run due to the efficient nature of radiant heat.

The mats come with self-adhesive backing so they are secured appropriately to the subfloor.
