Discover the World of Radiant Heat

Why Radiant Heat?
Underfloor radiant heat is simply the most comfortable heat on earth!

Comfort
Comfort is the most compelling reason to consider radiant heat. With underfloor radiant heat, temperatures are higher at floor level and decrease toward the ceiling. And when your feet are warmer, you feel warmer all over. Because radiant heat is installed within the entire floor surface, heat is even-with no hot spots. Radiant heat puts the heat where the occupants are, not at the ceiling, as conventional systems do.

History
The Romans were using radiant under floor heating in 670 A.D. The notorious Emperor Caligula had it installed in his barge using terra cotta pipes and a wood fire. The principle was simple: warm water circulated in tubes placed in the floor. That principle remains unchanged nearly 2000 years later. Today, radiant under floor heat is the most popular form of central heating in Europe. People in North America and the rest of the world are beginning to appreciate its many benefits.
