Radiant Heating Service
A radiant heater in your home can save you money over a traditional forced air or baseboard heating system, and it can be remarkably effective.
Although it takes about a day or so for radiant floor heating to reach its full capacity, it can easily maintain that heat once the appropriate temperature has been reached.
You stand to save a lot of money on your energy bills for heating due to the system’s efficiency. Read on to learn more about how radiant heating works so you can decide if it’s right for you.
Radiant Floor Heating Systems
A radiant heater works by pumping hot air underneath your floors. The heat from the water in the pipes warms your flooring material, and that heat can extend into the air throughout your home.
Unlike with forced air or baseboard heating systems, you won’t have any hot or cold spots, as the heat is distributed evenly across the floor, rather than coming from centralized locations.
While it is true that installing a radiant heater can be expensive due to the need to rip up your existing floors, you’ll more than makeup for it in long-term savings. Radiant heat can cost as little as a dollar per day, depending on the size and scope of your system.
Not only that but these systems generally last 30 years or more with proper care and maintenance, so you’ll save money over replacing furnaces as well.
The installation process is not particularly complex, though it is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Your technicians will first need to remove the existing flooring materials. Then, they can lay down the pipes that will carry the hot water to warm your floors.
The final step is to restore your flooring so that you can regain the use of your home. Once installed, radiant systems don’t require much maintenance, though regular tune-ups can help to keep everything working properly.
Radiant heating comes with a variety of benefits, including:
Affordable, energy-efficient operation
Even heating throughout rooms
Boost in property value, long life span, or comfort underfoot during winter
