Radiant Heating In Your San Diego Home
San Diego in-floor radiant heat is a popular heating solution that provides draft-free, comfortable heat. Here's how it works. Radiant floors circulate warm water through tubing embedded in the floor of your home. The heat radiates up through the floor, warming the people, furnishings and air in the room. The warmth stays down around where the people are, not up at the ceiling or lost to the outdoors when a door or window is opened.
Key Benefits of Radiant Heating
Unparalleled Comfort. Eliminates cold spots. Floors are warm and cozy to the touch.
Works almost everywhere. Use under tile, marble, wood, carpet and concrete floors.
Saves Money. Radiant heat can save 20-40% over traditional heating systems.
Quiet and invisible. Eliminates noisy fans, popping ductwork and pinging pipes.
Floor Warming Vs. Floor Heating
Floor warming is sometimes used in small areas such as bathrooms for the sole purpose of warming your feet when you get out of the shower. This is usually done electrically by embedding resistive wires or mats in the setting materials under the tile. This method is rarely the primary heat source of a home.
Floor heating refers to San Diego radiant systems that are installed throughout most or all of the floor area of the home. Almost any modern well-built home, regardless of climate, can be comfortably heated with a radiant floor heating system as its sole heat source.
