What’s better than warm floors during the cold winter months?  Whether you are building a new home or adding on, consider installing an in-floor water heating system. In-floor water heat is a safe, clean, efficient source of heating; when installed on Polk-Burnett’s off-peak rate, it can save you money on your heating costs.  It can be installed in residential and commercial applications either in the basement floor, slab on grade or both.

With radiant floor heating, the living space is heated by circulating warm water through tubing in the floor.  When the thermostat calls for heat, the boiler elements heat the water flowing through the system. The heat in the tubes radiates to the floor surface and rises evenly throughout the room above.  The result is evenly distributed room temperatures, giving you the comfort you look for in a heating system.

In-floor radiant water systems are generally heated using a boiler.   Polk-Burnett sells the Electro brand heating vessel* (see picture below).
