I am way behind on my blogging and have been working round the clock and have had no time to show you all what we have been up too!
The chill is in the air and winter is coming round the corner faster than I had wanted. And, naturally we are starting to install the heating system, so it's perfect timing!
I am a huge fan of radiant flooring and have used it on other projects and recommend using when at all possible. Even just in the bathroom if you can. It does take a little getting used to.... when you turn it on at the thermostat nothing happens right away. No clicking on, no hot air running through ducts, no immediate warmth....but sure enough the air starts to change and your toes are cozy, and all of a sudden your warm without you even realizing it. It's a much better heating system then forced air or baseboard heaters. It only heats the lower to middle areas of a space (basically where people are) and doesn't fluctuate from hot to cold all day long. Its just super great, ok!
There are lots of different radiant flooring options, I chose the electrical option for cost purposes and ease of install..........
Well, the ease of install in not technically true. Its nice to not have to hire someone to install it, I can do it myself but you have to be able to read there confusing layout maps and have some good knee pads....ok and a little patience. But well worth it!
