Electric floor warming systems are ideal for adding heat under tile and other hard floor surfaces. Some of the benefits of an electric floor warming system are; easy to install, perfect for individual zoning or temperature control and there is no maintenance or upkeep required to assure top performance. Please refer to Danfoss LX Cable , Danfoss LX Mats , Danfoss TX, and ZMesh as some of our top recommendations.

The term radiant heat often still refers to a Hydronic system which is a method that uses a gas or oil boiler to heat water and an electric pump to circulate it through special PEX tubing under the floor. Historically, hydronic radiant heat became popular in North America due to the low cost of fuel. It still remains true that many projects will find that a hydronic heat system may still be less expensive to install and operate.

Since a hydronic radiant heat system has so many parts and variables to consider, it is crucial to the performance of the system that it be properly designed and installed by a qualified contractor. Contact us directly for a design and materials estimate.
