Have you ever been in a upscale hotel or resort and been surprised to find that you step out of the shower onto a warm bathroom floor.  What a pleasant surprise in contrast to the cold tile floors in most of our homes.  For years heated floors have been a luxury that most could not afford, however Suntouch floor warming mats is changing that.  Suntouch floor warming mats are an affordable solution for providing heated floors in your home.

In addition to providing warmth, these new floor warming mats are energy efficient. Other benefits of electric floor heating systems include:

  • Silent operation. There’s no hum or whistle of a forced air system.

  • Energy savings. Evenly distributed heat from a radiant floor heating system can allow the thermostat to be set two to four degrees less than in a forced-air heating system. This can reduce energy costs by 10 to 40 percent.

  • A healthier home. Forced air systems can spread dust, pollen, and germs. Dust mites and molds love carpet but don’t like warmth. European research performed in 21 households shows a 50 percent to 80 percent reduction in domestic dust mite populations in the households with radiant floor heating, thereby improving the quality of life (particularly for allergy sufferers).

  • Even, quiet warmth. Even wood, tile, or uncovered concrete floors can benefit from a radiant system.

If you’ve always loved heated floors, but assumed you couldn’t afford them, you should checkout Suntouch floor warming mats.
