home and garden indoor environmental qualityHow much are heated concrete floors?
Just so, is radiant floor heating cost effective?
Radiant heating systems supply heat directly to the floor or to panels in the wall or ceiling of a house. Radiant heating has a number of advantages. It is more efficient than baseboard heating and usually more efficient than forced-air heating because it eliminates duct losses.
Accordingly, are heated floors worth it?
In short, if you already have plans to replace the flooring in a room, then installing in-floor heating is definitely worth it. These radiant heating systems must be installed under the flooring, which means the best time to install heated floors is when you're updating the flooring anyway.
