If you are redoing the flooring in your home, consider adding radiant heat.
If you own a boiler system on top of it, it is practically fate to go with hydronic heating.
Why do you need heated flooring? The benefits of this type of heating system outweigh the cons. First, heated flooring is totally silent in operation. It is either electric heated mats or piping with hot water under your floorboards. No air moving around means it is silent and won’t wake you or your children out of a dead sleep. Also, no air movement means cleaner indoor air quality. You don’t recycle the same air filled with dust, hair and pet dander. Another pro to heated flooring is the heat doesn’t rise and get wasted on the ceiling. With a furnace, heat rises due to the lighter particles. Heated flooring uses radiant heat that absorbs into stationary objects like your sofa and chairs. Not only do your seats feel heated, but you feel warmer since you get all that heat at the right level. When your lower half feels warmer, you are naturally warmer and can turn down the thermostat. You save even more money doing it this way then. Another plus side is that there are no hot and cold spots now. Every corner, room and square foot has heating access. You aren’t suddenly going to be freezing cold when you go to bed. Heated flooring additionally requires very little maintenance, just a yearly check up should be good. To save money too, the installation on this heater can be done by the homeowner.
