Radiant
Floor Heating - The Ultimate In Comfort
The desire for comfort is a basic human wish and
nothing delivers comfort better than radiant floor
heating. Imagine your body surrounded by a cozy warmth
that radiates up from the floor. Radiant floor heating
heats your body and objects, not the air. The warmth stays
down around the floor where it is needed most. It is not
wasted at the ceiling or lost to the outdoors whenever a
door or window is opened.
As early as 60 A.D., the Romans discovered the best way to
heat an enclosed space is to introduce heat below the floor
surface and let it radiate upward through the floor into
the structure. This basic concept remains true today, and the tremendous
advances in Wirsbo technology has brought radiant floor
heating into modern times.
It's simple...floors become large, mild radiators resulting in warm friendly
floors. The systems circulate warm water through the
flexible yet durable Wirsbo PEX tubing that can be installed underneath
virtually any type of flooring material--wood, tile, even carpet. There are
systems to meet every need and budget from Radiant Ready
to Radiant Exclusive. Installation is fast and easy.
The lower water temperatures needed for a radiant floor heating system mean
lower thermostat settings which saves on monthly heating
bills. In addition, zoning gives you room by room temperature
control allowing you to place the heat where you want it.
So many benefits with Radiant Floor
Heating...
Superior Comfort - Consistent, steady heat
all winter long remaining near the floor where you are. It
is a very desirable cool head, warm feet environment.
Warm floors in kitchens and bathrooms.
Beautiful wood and marble floors are even more enjoyable
because they are now warm.
Efficiency - Because people are in direct
contact with the heat source, they are comfortable at a
lower thermostat setting. Energy savings between 20 to 40% result.
Zoning Ability - Radiant floor heating
provides room by room temperature control, allowing more
heat where you want it most.
Decorating Freedom - because the system is
encased in the floor, furnishings can be placed wherever
you desire without concern for impairing heat distribution or hiding unsightly
heating appliances. In addition, Wirsbo radiant floor heating
systems can be installed under any type of flooring,
including wood, tile, concrete and carpet.
Clean and draft-free - there are no noisy
fans to blow dust and allergens around your home.
Because the floors are warm, they dry
quicker after mopping.
Radiant Floor Heating Adds Value To The
Home - Radiant floor heating can immediately increase the
value of your home. Installing Wirsbo tubing in slab or basement applications
allows you to turn cold, damp areas into warm cozy living space -
taking full advantage of all the available square footage
in your home.
With proper design and insulation, the
benefits of a Wirsbo radiant floor heating system are many.
It's easy to see why more and more people are choosing superior comfort and
efficiency for their homes and families. |
