My best buddy has never been one to exaggerate, so when he told me about his radiant heated floors and how amazing this heating system was, I knew he was telling me the truth.
I never personally looked into radiant heated floors until he started telling me all about it all.
He spoke of the even heating that was second to none and how his energy bills were lower than ever. This sounded welcoming especially since my heating bills have started to go up a great deal with the cost of natural gas heating. The thing is, this particular heating system, according to him, was so energy efficient. He explained it’s because the heating rises slowly which is what causes the even heating throughout the residence. He also was saying how the floors just feel amazing, especially when you walk around in socks. He even told me that he slept on the floor a number of times with his dog and cats. He just told me that if I ever planned to invest in this type of heating system, I should also invest in a good air purification system as well. He said it’s because there is no air filter when you have radiant heated floors, because the heating energy comes from heated water moving through the pipes, and that heating energy is what keeps the home warm through the process of hydronic heating. He said he invested in a UV air purification system which is one of the best air purifiers you can get on the market. I had to visit him at his place to see what the fuss was all about, and he is right, it’s the best heating system!
