When choosing a system for wood floors, make sure to know whether the floor is floating or nailed, to ensure matching it with the right radiant heating system. For floating floors, <strong><a title=\"FilmHeat radiant floor heat\" href=\"\/floor-heating\/filmheat\/\">FilmHeat <\/a><\/strong>is the most recommended option. (Low-voltage <strong><a title=\"Low-voltage floor heating system\" href=\"\/floor-heating\/floorheat\/\">FloorHeat STEP<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a title=\"FoilHeat radiant floor heating systems\" href=\"\/floor-heating\/foilheat\/\">FoilHeat <\/a><\/strong>are also popular options, with the low-voltage system being particularly effective for heating hardwood floors.) These systems utilize three unique heating elements. The FilmHeat system features a near paper-thin &ldquo;film&rdquo; heating element that is laid out directly under flooring. FoilHeat features fluoropolymer insulated heating cables that are sandwiched between reinforced layers of aluminum foil.<\/p>\n<p>Low-voltage FloorHeat STEP utilizes thin, flexible polymer heating panels. All of these systems are proven, and easy to install, and a great value for heating floors. For nailed floors, the FloorHeat STEP low-voltage system is an excellent choice because it requires no floor build-up, and the thin self-regulating polymer heating element can be nailed or stapled through.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5601\" src=\"http:\/\/www.warmzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/warm-floor-livingroom.jpg\" alt=\"Heated hardwood floor in living room.\" width=\"662\" height=\"518\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.warmzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/warm-floor-livingroom.jpg 662w, https:\/\/www.warmzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/warm-floor-livingroom-300x235.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 662px) 100vw, 662px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>For laminate flooring there are many proven options.
