If you’re investigating radiant heating, you may have heard that it’s only possible to have it installed in warmer weather. That was the case when the heating mechanism had to be set into a freshly-poured concrete slab that had to cure.

Many homes in Grand Traverse County have conventional heating systems that work by heating air and blowing this warmed air into the living spaces. Other homes in our area have systems using heated water piped along baseboards which will gradually warm the circulating air. Both of these systems rely on the movement of heated air. Another option, radiant heating, works on a different
process entirely.

Radiant floor heating systems are a very effective alternative to traditional heating provided by furnaces and heat pumps. They work by supplying heat directly to the floor of the area being heated. Heat rises from the floor and is transferred from the warm surface directly to the room through a process called radiant heat transfer. A radiant floor heating system means you are living and working on a heated surface warm enough to provide heat even in climates that see many months of cold temperatures each year.
