Radiant In-floor Systems

Trusted Radiant in-floor system installation and maintenance in Simcoe, ON!

Radiant In-Floor Systems provide comfort and luxury you can feel, such as in a bathroom. It is also a great way to add supplemental heat to rooms that are hard to heat like a colder basement. Radiant heating has been around for centuries, but today’s modern applications have advanced. This supplemental heating can also in some situations help cut down on your heating bills.

The Benefits of Radiant Heating

Radiant in-floor heating systems offer many benefits and advantages. These include:

Hidden Out of Sight – With radiant floor heating, there are no heating vents, ductwork, baseboard heaters, radiators, or other visible components. This gives your home a streamlined appearance and makes it easier to decorate, clean, and move around freely!

Exceptional Comfort – Radiant heat systems are known for the comfortable, steady warmth they produce. Unlike forced air systems that cycle between blowing hot air and shutting off, they instead give off gentle heat consistently throughout the day and night.

Energy Efficient – The steady heat produced by a radiant heat system is up to 30% more efficient than forced air heating. The planet and your wallet will both thank you for the associated reduction in monthly energy costs.

Less Circulation of Airborne Particles – Because a radiant heating system doesn’t have any ducts, it reduces the circulation of dust, viruses, and other airborne particles in your home.

Radiant In-Floor Heating Setup

In radiant in-floor heating, warmth is supplied by a system of tubes filled with hot water or a system of electric wires that are installed underneath the surface of the floor. Heat travels upwards, evenly warming the floor, the room, and all of the furniture inside it.

Though it is generally easiest to install radiant in-floor heating at the time of construction, it is also sometimes possible to install this type of system in an already existing space. Speak with a knowledgeable SMHC technician to learn more about the feasibility of installing radiant heat in your particular home.

Tile and stone are the preferred flooring options for radiant heating systems because they quickly transfer heat (known as having high thermal conductivity). Other flooring materials can also be suitable, but carpeting is not recommended.
