Installation Case Study: Why a Modern Radiant Heating System is a Perfect Home Remodeling Project
The installation of electric radiant floor heating is growing in popularity in both new homes and renovations that focus on clean, comfortable living. These systems come with many benefits such as consistent, energy-efficient warmth. Why? The answer is simple. Electric radiant floor heating systems are easy to install, produce no noise, require no maintenance, are non-allergenic and heat up quickly to provide uniform floor heating. Through a series of wires, typically customizable for design flexibility, electric radiant floor heating produces heat through thermal radiation. By heating the floor rather than the surrounding air, which can be less energy efficient due to duct losses, diffused heat radiates from the floor up and is absorbed by surrounding objects that in turn help warm the entire room.
Recently, Strata_Heat™ was selected to be installed in a home remodeling project for a private residence in Connecticut. The homeowner wanted to supplement the electric baseboard heat throughout their home and replace it with something more cost effective. Since heat travels upward, Strata_Heat would make for a warmer, more efficient home without breaking the bank.
