Radiant Floor Heat
for Retrofit Applications
A common regret
after installing a high quality
floor covering is
not having installed in-floor
(under floor) radiant
heating. With the RetroHeat
radiant floor
heating system, you can warm your
existing floors,
supplement your home's heat and
increase the value of your
home.
Warmzone offers an
affordable solution for retrofitting
your existing floor
with an efficient radiant heating
system. If you can
access your floor joists from below,
you are a perfect
candidate for the RetroHeat
floor heating
system. The RetroHeat heating
element is easy to
install and makes a great
do-it-yourself project. The under
floor radiant heat system is UL
approved and carries a generous
10-year warranty.

RetroHeat for All Types for
Floor Surfaces
The
RetroHeat system is
one of
the best values for
installing radiant
heat under any existing
floor surface, including
tile, hardwood, and carpet.
So, if
you have open access to the
floor joists from below, you
can add in-floor radiant
heat to your bathroom,
kitchen,
bedroom, or living room
floors.
RetroHeat efficiently heats
your floors and is
easy to
install. When installing the
system, the heating panels
are cut
to their proper length, then
stapled in between the
floor joists. Heating
panels are available for
joists with 12", 16", and
24" spacing.
(Measurements are taken from
the center of once joist to
the other, not the distance
in between the joists.)
After
stapling the heating panels
between the floor joists,
the
electrical connections are
made and common batt
insulation
is installed underneath the
panels to direct the heat up
through the floor.
The
under floor heating system
consists of heating panels,
connection
materials, and unique
digital
thermostat that includes
a 16-amp GFCI breaker and
floor sensor for accurate programming.
