Wirsbo Radiant Floors
Radiant heat is more than just warming your feet on a cold morning. It is a way to always feel comfortable. Radiant heating is as old as the Roman Empire. They used hollow bricks for their walls and floors, and these acted as a chimney for a fire they'd build beneath the floor. Radiant is how they heated their famous bathhouses. With today's modern radiant systems, every room can be a separate zone of heat. And with the addition of weather-responsive controls, the heating system can change to provide maximum comfort and efficiency. It's like putting cruise control on your home!
Radiant doesn't cost - it saves!
A properly installed and controlled system can be up to 40% less expensive to operate than a forced-hot-air system. And since the floor acts as a giant radiator, it's no longer necessary to plan your furniture around your heating system. So go ahead and decorate however you want! Don't worry about blocking the ductwork or the baseboard heat. Put your furniture wherever you'd like. The days of designing around your heating registers are over.
No Cold Spots!
Radiant floor heating takes advantage of the whole floor ensuring an even and efficient heat distribution system. Wirsbo Radiant Floors circulates warm water through PEX tubing embedded in the floor of your home. The heat from the water radiates up through the floor, heating the people, furnishings and air in the room. It provides a comfortable, even heat throughout your home -- and eliminates cold spots and drafts.
