I debated on heated flooring for the longest… I live in Fort Worth, TX; While it doesn’t get that cold here, there are cold points, then so having a heating system is a requirement.
- I have gotten by with a ductless mini split in a few rooms.
I have the heating going just to keep everything comfy. I am not a fan of ductless heating though. It takes up wall space as well as isn’t that powerful. I was typically eyeing up my flooring as well as thinking about something different! One year I got it in my head that it was the time. So I ripped up all my outdated rug as well as was sold on a brick that hid dirt perfectly. I read that heated flooring works especially well with tile. It keeps the heat the best! Also redoing the flooring is the best time to add a radiant heater. Other than that, it is only positive to this system. So I made the option that it was the day for heated flooring. I had a Fort Worth heating company do it for me… They did the radiant furnace replacement as well as all I had to do was add cement board for them as well as then the final brick overtop. The heating system is safely tucked away under the floors as well as out of sight. I don’t really need to call for service or anything like that. What could they do with it sealed under the floors? I now have a quiet, energy smart, as well as cleaner heating system. I removed all my ductless furnaces to free up wall space! My rooms feel warmer, look better, as well as my energy bills are so much nicer. It was a smart replace.
