Common Questions About Floor Heating in Springfield IL
With Online Shopping Option
Q. Why should someone consider Floor Heating? What are the benefits to Floor Heating?
A. There are multiple benefits to installing in Springfield Floor Heating. When remodeling, it provides a cost effective, easy to install solution to heating a new or updated room, as there is no need to run more duct work or expand your furnace. Floor Heating also cut down on your energy bills. If you only need/want to heat one room in your Springfield home(for example, the kitchen), you can simply turn on the thermostat in that room, instead of running your primary heating source. Because of this, Floor Heating in Springfield is also a green alternative, as it cuts down on IL energy consumption. But what is the biggest benefit of all? Pure comfort. Instead of stepping on cold tiles or walking into a cold room, your feet will always find a comforting Radiant floor heat, providing a level of comfort you never knew possible. Furthermore, when an individual's feet feel warm, they are warm, so the need to constantly run other heating systems lessens with Radiant floor heat.
Q. Will Floor Heating save money? How much does Floor Heating save?
A. Floor Heating in IL can save you anywhere from a small amount to a small fortune, depending on how much you use it. Running one floor mat for Floor Heating uses the equivalent energy of a standard light bulb (so if your floor space is heated by three floor mats, it's the same as three light bulbs). Because of this, the Radiant floor heat system uses far less energy than a typical heating system, which can use a tremendous amount of electricity, gas, or other energy sources. Since you can heat only the rooms you want with Floor Heating, there's no need to run that energy intensive system in your IL home after you have installed Floor Heating.
Q. Lots of projects are 'DIY', but how easy are your Springfield Floor Heating systems to install?
A. With the provided manuals and materials, anyone in IL who can do a flooring project can install one of our Floor Heating systems. Most of our Radiant floor heat come with self-adhesive strips, so fastening the mat is as simple as peel and stick. Though installing the thermostat can be done without much hassle, we do suggest in using an Springfield electrician or other trusted IL professional.

More about it:
Ceramic tile is the most common and effective floor covering for radiant floor heating, as it conducts heat well from the floor and adds thermal storage, due to its high heat capacity. Common floor coverings like vinyl and linoleum sheet goods, carpeting, or wood, can also be used, but any covering that helps to insulate the floor from the room will decrease the efficiency of the system. If you want carpeting, use a thin carpet with dense padding and install as little carpeting as possible. If some rooms, but not all, will have a floor covering, then those rooms should have a separate tubing loop to make the system heat these spaces more efficiently. This is because the heat coming from under the covered floor will need to be stronger to compensate for the floor covering. Wood flooring should be laminated wood flooring, instead of solid wood. This reduces the possibility of the wood shrinking and cracking from the drying effects of the heat.
