The Key to an Ultra Comfortable Home

When you are at home, you want to be as comfortable as comfortable can be– home is where you feel the safest after all. After a long day of working hard, you just want to kick off your shoes and feel the warm embrace of your comfortable couch. This is especially true during winter time. When you get home and out of the cold, the feeling of a warm room is just heaven. There’s only a slight problem though—after a while you decide to stand up and the freezing cold floor sends shivers up your spine.

While most homes are equipped with forced air heating to keep up the ambient temperature during cold days, only a small number of households have underfloor heating. Having heated floors via an electric radiant floor heating system will maximize the coziness of your home during those cold days and nights. You will never ever have to worry about getting cold shock therapy every time you put your feet down on the ground.

Electric radiant floor heating works by sending electric currents through helically coiled wires underneath your tile floors which heats up the overlaying tiles—just make sure your floor is made of granite, slate, marble or a similar material though. Don’t worry about the electricity though, it requires little power and there is no chance of getting electrocuted. Underfloor heating systems are well insulated you can even use them for your bathroom floor. Imagine that; you no longer have to fear the cold floor when getting out of the shower!
