Minimize Heat Loss by Creating a Barrier Between Bare Feet and the Floor

July 19, 2009 00:07 AM  BY  JEN HALLAM

SunTouch Floor Heating Mats Eliminate Cold Feet

My feet are always cold. I wear slippers in the summer. Granny slippers, as my husband affectionately calls them. Heat loss through my feet is a serious deal for me. When I visit my parents I turn green with envy because they have a heated tile floor. My feet wander around bare and free when we walk the halls of their remarkable heated tile floor. As I build my dream house in my mind, the tile and hardwood floors are sprawled over electric heated floor mats, and my granny slippers are tossed into a dusty forgotten corner.

It is simple really, to minimize heat loss through the feet; one must first create a barrier between bare feet and the floor. Using a heated floor mat creates that barrier is a cost-efficient, easy-to-install method of doing just that. Heating your floor with under floor radiant heating mats is a project that can often be done at any stage of home building. A heated floor is surprisingly simple to install under tile, hardwood, or even carpeted floor. Many people enjoy the benefits of a slipper-less existence. One day I will too! For now I better go schedule another visit to foot heaven, er, I mean my parent’s house.

Heating Small Floor Spaces

February 26, 2009 00:02 AM  BY  JEN HALLAM

SunTouch Radiant Floor Heat is Ideal for Smaller Areas

Radiant floor heating is a wonderful addition to any home. Most homeowners believe that the installation of a heated floor is something best done during the initial construction of a home. The belief also exists that radiant floor heating be cast throughout the entire home, thereby maximizing the heating potential and benefits. The reality is that just about any floor can be retrofitted with radiant heat at any stage of home ownership.

There are many of us with smaller do-it-yourself attitudes that would love to walk into a small tiled bathroom or entryway and feel the same luxurious heat offered by a radiant heat floor system. Using SunTouch floor heating mats is a simple way to achieve heated tile floors in smaller spaces. If you have anywhere from one to five rooms, SunTouch may be a plausible alternative to a complete overhaul of your flooring.

Achieving warmth with electric radiant floor heat is easier than ever before. SunTouch floor heating systems are simple to install and have remarkably low start-up costs. An initial cost a buyer will incur up front is when they purchase an electric digital thermostat. These thermostats can usually be found for less than $200.

Heated floors in smaller areas are tackled by simply installing SunTouch mats directly onto concrete board or the subfloor just prior to setting the stone or tile. If the do-it-yourself spirit fails when you attempt this project, most tile setters already have experience with floor warming systems and can add it to their installation easily.
