If You’re Renovating Your Floors, SunTouch WarmWire is the Perfect Complement
Upgrading your home improves the feel, look, and value of your property. At some point, almost every homeowner decides to install new flooring in order to instantly provide a better look for a room. If you are considering upgrading or installing new hardwood floors, laminate floors, carpet or even tile floors in your home, you owe it to yourself to add SunTouch WarmWire to your renovation decisions. For a little more cash, you can replace your current floors and your heating system with SunTouch WarmWire radiant floor heat, taking your home renovation to a whole new level. Rather than just changing the look of a room, by upgrading to floor heating, you can also upgrade the quality of life you can enjoy in your home.
Radiant heating today is cutting-edge technology, providing cleaner air and lower EMF emissions than most forms of heating. Radiant heat can be installed under virtually any kind of flooring with electrical cable systems. With radiant floor heat, the surface of your floor is heated, causing the heat in a room to rise gradually along furnishings towards the ceiling. If you have an HVAC system right now, you may have noticed that objects in a room – including furnishings, walls, floors, and pieces of art – remain cold to the touch, even when the heat is on. When you are warm and come into contact with one of these surfaces, the shock is anything but pleasant. Innovative electric floor heating systems warm the surfaces and objects in your room, so that you stay comfortably warm and don’t get chilled by touching walls or furnishings.
Even more importantly, radiant floor heating systems are much quieter than furnaces or HVAC units and don’t circulate dust and toxins the way air vents can. This can mean that radiant floor heat systems can actually be healthier for you than most heating systems. There is just no point in replacing moldy old carpet with a healthier flooring unless you also opt for SunTouch floor heating, which ensures cleaner air as well.
Many customers also choose electric floor warming system for the economical nature of this heating system. Many customers find that radiant heat saves them 15% or more in utility expenses. If you are worried about the cost of installing radiant heat, then, you should know that your heating system could well pay for itself in only a few years in savings on heat. You will also be warmer. That is something that floor renovations alone just cannot deliver.
