The Floor Warming or Floor Heating business has literally erupted in recent years. It’s popularity has grown, and rightly so, because it fixes a problem caused by traditional hot-air heating systems. As we all are aware, when heating with hot air, the heated air rises to the ceiling and away from the floor. The result is a cold floor especially when the floor covering is tile or stone.
Most companies that offer a floor warming product have the built-in assumption that you are starting from scratch – that you don’t yet have a floor covering installed. And that’s fine for new construction or when you’re about to add new tile.
But what if you have cold floors now and you don’t want to rip up and replace your finished flooring?
Underfloor Warming
If you have access to the area with the cold floor from below, the SmartRooms Underfloor Heating system might be suitable for you. Often access is easy, say, from an unfinished basement or crawl space.
By placing our RC Series radiant heating panels between the floor joists, the panels will directly warm the underside of the floor which then transfers to the finished floor above. The system is easily controlled with a SmartRooms Controller. Just set it to a comfortable temperature and you’re done!
