What comes to mind when you consider the most important parts of a bathroom or kitchen remodeling project? Most would say it’s the fixtures or appliances. However, the heating system is also crucial to consider, especially because bathrooms and kitchens can present unique heating challenges. While appliances and fixtures are important, have you ever considered installing radiant floor heating by SunTouch ®? SunTouch electric floor heating is simply a thin electric mat installed in beneath your flooring. SunTouch electric mats are controlled by a timer-thermostat To install this type of heating is very cost effective, especially when you consider how much money you’ll save on your heating bill. For example, when installed in an average-sized bathroom, it will operate on less than 10 cents a day of electricity.

Electric radiant heat systems are incredibly economical. They are made of a heat resistant wire which serpentines over a supporting material. They are safe, relatively easy to install, and extremely energy-efficient.

Finally, there’s another major plus to electric radiant heat: amazing comfort. Having electric radiant heat in the floor increases our comfort by bringing the heat to our feet, which leaves the air at head level cooler. This scenario creates the perfect level of comfort. Whether you are remodeling one or five rooms, electric radiant heat is the perfect solution. It’s inexpensive, and easy enough to install that most any DIY remodeler could install it themselves.
