Radiant Floor Heating Reduces Energy Costs
Radiant underfloor heating uses plastic tubes built right into the floor. When the house gets cold, the tubes fill with hot water, which heats the floor and warms the house with a quiet, clean, comfortable source of heat. Best of all, energy costs can be reduced because the thermostat can be set two to four degrees lower than the standard “forced air” system. In addition, the humidity level near the floor is low because the floor is heated, eliminating the habitat for mildew and dust-mites.
Benefits of Radiant Underfloor Heating
Radiant underfloor heating is an improvement over traditional forced air and home radiators. It:
- is quieter;
- more evenly distributes the heat;
- has no ductwork to trap dust, pollen, and germs;
- is healthier;
- can save you money!
