Why Install a Radiant Floor System in Nova Scotia?

While summers are hot and humid, winter comes quick and with it come the cold. Air heating systems are known to aggravate alergies where as radiant flooring, doesn’t rely on ductwork and vents, which can help eliminate that concern and provide cleaner, safer heating for allergy sufferers.

Traditional heating systems can often create other issues like inconsistent heating in the home. Depending where your vents are located will determine which areas are warmer than others. Underfloor heating can spread that heat out evenly throughout the entire floor, creating an evenly heated room with no cold drafts. This makes them perfect for bathrooms and places like mudrooms. 

Types of Radiant Floor Heating

There are typically two primary types of in floor heating: electronic and hydronic.

Hydronic Radiant Floor Heating Systems

Hydronic systems employ underfloor heating pipes warmed by a boiler to heat the floors. While their operational costs are lower than those of electric systems, their initial installation is significantly more expensive. Installing hydronic systems typically takes longer and is better suited for new constructions rather than retrofitting into existing homes or buildings. Additionally, unlike electric systems, hydronic systems necessitate regular maintenance.

Electric Radiant Floor Heating Systems

An electric radiant floor heating system heats floors using electric heating wires. This system is known for its quick installation and high energy efficiency. It is also more cost-effective and cheaper to install compared to other heating systems, even when factoring in long-term electricity costs. Additionally, electric systems require no ongoing maintenance and are ready to use once installed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if my in-floor heating system frequently fails to provide sufficient warmth or experiences leaks?

Similar to electrical systems, in-floor heating systems are designed with safeguards to prevent issues like leaks or failures to provide adequate warmth. However, if you notice consistent problems with your in-floor heating, it could indicate underlying issues that need attention. These issues may require repairs or upgrades to ensure the optimal functioning of your system.

    Why do I feel warmth or dampness around my floors and pipes?

    Just as loose or deteriorating electrical connections can cause problems in an electrical system, issues with the connections or components of your in-floor heating system can lead to warmth or dampness around your floors and pipes. This could be a sign of leaks or malfunctioning components within the system. It’s important to address these issues promptly to prevent further damage and maintain the efficiency of your heating system.

      Why am I experiencing uneven heating, with some areas only providing cold rather than hot temperatures?

      In older homes with outdated heating systems, uneven heating can be a common issue. However, in modern homes with in-floor heating systems, uneven heating could indicate problems with the system’s components or distribution of heat. This could be due to issues such as clogged pipes or malfunctioning valves. Our team can assess your system to identify the cause of uneven heating and recommend appropriate solutions to ensure consistent warmth throughout your home.

        If my in-floor heating system requires upgrading, will I need to replace the entire system?

        Just as with plumbing systems, the need for upgrading your in-floor heating system doesn’t always necessitate replacing the entire system. In many cases, upgrades can be made to specific components or areas of the system to improve its efficiency and performance. Our team can conduct an assessment of your in-floor heating system to determine the necessary upgrades and provide you with a tailored estimate for the required improvements.
