Radiant floor heating can add comfort, style and efficiency to any project. Radiant heat is a great way to dispel any concerns about tile being too “cold” in certain areas. Here are some other perks:
- Radiant heat is super efficient. According to Warmup.com, radiant heat provides an average savings of 15% on heating bills.
- It doesn’t push air into a room, therefore distributing allergens like radiators and other heat sources do.
- Radiant floor heat eliminates “cold spots” in a room. That’s a common complaint about radiators, since radiators heat the air around them, which can sometimes leave some areas of a room too hot and others too cold.
- Once installed, radiant heat requires basically no maintenance. Both Laticrete’s STRATA_HEAT system and Schluter System’s DITRA-HEAT come with lengthy warranties.
- Radiant heat can reduce design limitations. If radiators or other heat sources are getting in the way of your furniture or cabinetry layout, radiant heat can be a great alternative.
- You can even install it in your shower!
With all of these perks, plus the added comfort and luxury, radiant floor heat is certainly something to consider for your next tile project. These videos below can help give you an idea of how these systems are installed, and the team at Creative Tile is always ready to answer any questions you might have.
