Radiant Floor Heating

It’s no secret — it can get pretty cold here in Pennsylvania. On a cold winter day, what if your home was perfectly heated, no matter the room? What about a bathroom that doesn’t send shivers down your spine whenever you get out of the shower?

Radiant floor heating brings plenty of comfort to your West Chester home. Our team at Timothy Off Heating, Air Conditioning and Plumbing is happy to walk you through the process.

What Are the Advantages of Radiant Flooring?

Radiant floor heating is a stealthy way to heat your home — all the heating components are hidden under your floors. It’s not a traditional boiler system, with floorboards or hot-to-touch radiators that use up your valuable living space.

Hydronic heating, in particular, is proven to be more energy efficient than central heating and cooling, according to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). That’s because, over time, air ducts can become leaky, accounting for significant energy losses.

Conventional heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) units can require extensive maintenance to keep up their efficiency. Plus, forced-air systems tend to stir up dust throughout your home. Radiant floors are easier to maintain and friendlier on your indoor air quality.

How Does Radiant Floor Heating Work?

The warmth in your home comes from a series of pipes or electric panels installed underneath your floor. These pipes or panels radiate heat, which rises and naturally warms each room.

Contrary to popular belief, you don’t need ceramic tile floors. Radiant floor heating works with natural hardwood, vinyl, or other floor coverings. Your flooring will always feel warm — but never too hot — as the heat evenly disperses throughout your West Chester home.

Types of Radiant Floor Heating

Homeowners typically install electric or hydronic floors. Air-heated floors are another option, but these are typically reserved for commercial or industrial settings. Contact Timothy Off with questions about which design best meets your home specifications.

  • Electric radiant heat relies on a series of heat-producing cables underneath the flooring. Because of the high cost of electricity in most states, these systems work best as supplemental heating. They’re popular in bathrooms. Electric floor heating is also a great solution for a home addition. They typically come with programmable thermostats to monitor and control usage.
  • Hydronic radiant heat provides a whole-home solution. We install pipes beneath your floor that circulate water from a boiler or water heater. We use PEX piping, a highly flexible, heavy-duty plastic. These pipes can be fitted to panels, snapped into grids, fastened to aluminum grips, or secured in place with concrete.
