Thermal heating elements, also known as radiant heating, work to heat your home from the ground up, with outstanding results. However, those results are more far-reaching and resourceful when installing the perfect flooring on top of it, so read along here to find out more about it.
Flooring choices are important
Some floor coverings are not rated for thermal heating, and some carry specific requirements which will need to be met before installation. However, some options are a perfect fit and make more sense when this is your heat source.
All-natural stone is one of the best additions to your thermal heating system, offering impressive heat diffusion across the entire area. But it also provides stunning visuals in vast color schemes and durability that give it a lifespan of more than 100 years.
Porcelain and ceramic tile work in much the same way as all-natural stone but offer extensive visual options for one-of-a-kind décor matching. It provides the same heat distribution and can save on energy costs, especially over time.
Some laminate and luxury vinyl floors can be installed over thermal heating, but speak with your flooring specialist about the specifics. Pre-planning before installation can ensure your warranty is not voided in any way.
