be the best time to consider incorporating it in your home. It can

Here
are some frequently asked questions about radiant floor heating:
-
Can radiant floor heating in North Vancouver really make a difference?
It
can make a big difference to your home in such a way that you can
lower down your thermostat by up to 4 degrees and not find a
difference in comfort. What is great about radiant floor heating is
that the heat is distributed evenly without consuming a lot of
energy. If you lower down the temperature on your thermostat by that
much, you can significantly reduce the amount of energy your home is
using up.
-
Can radiant floor heating systems be installed on any type of flooring?
It
can be installed on any type of flooring except vinyl. This type of
flooring might not be heat-resistant and won’t conduct heat that
well. Radiant floor heating also doesn’t work as well with carpeted
flooring as there wouldn’t be efficient heat transfer. The best
types of flooring that will work with this kind of heating system are
hardwood and tiled flooring.
-
Can this be installed easily?
Hot
water type of radiant floor heating is easier to install for a new
construction home. For existing homes, opt for electrical radiant
matting instead.
