These systems are much easier to install and are ideal for heating specific areas or rooms. Electric floor heating systems generally use a heating cable (off the spool or pre-spaced cable in mats) or thin heating panels. The heating element is connected to a <span class=\"glossaryLink\" aria-describedby=\"tt\" data-cmtooltip=\"cmtt_a739a003a0729a92cc4f123bab2a4de7\" data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]' tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\">thermostat<\/span>, and each room or zone can be controlled separately, giving you precise, efficient control over your heating system.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"glossaryLink\" aria-describedby=\"tt\" data-cmtooltip=\"cmtt_142748a752fd79d8fbef3a6819628e36\" data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]' tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\">Radiant heat<\/span> differs from conventional heating because it heats objects (like the floor) as opposed to air. The room warms from the floor up. The floor heat spreads to objects in the room, such as furniture and fixtures, which ultimately provides comforting warmth for the room. This dispersal method allows for consistent heat throughout any room.<\/p>\n<h3>A Few Advantages of <span class=\"glossaryLink\" aria-describedby=\"tt\" data-cmtooltip=\"cmtt_142748a752fd79d8fbef3a6819628e36\" data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]' tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\">Radiant Heat<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Energy Efficient<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"glossaryLink\" aria-describedby=\"tt\" data-cmtooltip=\"cmtt_142748a752fd79d8fbef3a6819628e36\" data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]' tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\">Radiant heat<\/span> is an extremely energy-efficient choice, especially when compared to traditional HVAC systems. All the heating in the home radiates upward from the floor, keeping more of the heat where you need it most. With a radiant heating system, you can lower the temperature by a few degrees and still enjoy a nice warm room, reducing the utility budget. Unlike forced-air systems, there is no hot air being wasted by blowing from vents and rising to the ceiling. <span class=\"glossaryLink\" aria-describedby=\"tt\" data-cmtooltip=\"cmtt_142748a752fd79d8fbef3a6819628e36\" data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]' tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\">Radiant heat<\/span> systems are also room specific, and there is virtually no wasted energy. Heat transfers efficiently from the floor through to other objects. Each room can be heated according to your precise needs, allowing for even greater savings on monthly utility bills.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Consistent, Even Heating<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>An HVAC system blows warm air throughout the home, but this warm air doesn&rsquo;t heat the home uniformly, leaving cold and hot spots. With <span class=\"glossaryLink\" aria-describedby=\"tt\" data-cmtooltip=\"cmtt_142748a752fd79d8fbef3a6819628e36\" data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]' tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\">radiant heat<\/span>, the heat rises evenly from the flooring, warming the entire room. This uniform heat provides luxurious warmth throughout the room, eliminating cold spots.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hypoallergenic <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"glossaryLink\" aria-describedby=\"tt\" data-cmtooltip=\"cmtt_142748a752fd79d8fbef3a6819628e36\" data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]' tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\">Radiant heat<\/span> is also hypoallergenic. HVAC systems not only blow air, but also blow dust, allergens, and other particles that may be trapped in the ducts. With <span class=\"glossaryLink\" aria-describedby=\"tt\" data-cmtooltip=\"cmtt_142748a752fd79d8fbef3a6819628e36\" data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]' tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\">radiant heat<\/span>, this is not a concern.

The thin panels are stapled up between the joists and then batt insulation is stapled up over the heating elements to direct all of the heat upward to warm the floor. This is an affordable option for heating existing floors without the need of replacing or tearing out any flooring.
