Boiler Home Heating Benefits

The top benefits of hot water in-floor heating, also called Radiant Floor Heating, are as follows.

Hot water heating systems can be zoned, which means that rooms and levels can have their own thermostats controlling different areas. You can coordinate zones to suit your needs and preferences, including keeping your family members and house guests happy!
Monthly energy savings are possible when you plan out and optimize your entire home heating system, using the zones we just mentioned. Also, the heat is distributed at a lower temperature over a longer period of time.
Radiant floor heating feels so good and it’s comparable to basking in the warm rays of the sun. Our customers love this natural style of heating and temperature regulation. Imagine walking into a room and noticing something is different—the room just feels better. It could be the radiant heating!
Consistent and even heating eliminates cold spots.
Less allergens and dust due to less air being blown around your house.
It's so quiet compared to traditional furnaces.

Every home and structure is different. To get more information about your specific project, options and costs, contact us.

These are just some of the benefits of switching over to a boiler system for your residential home.

Did you know that in-floor heating is also called “Radiant Floor Heating”? This is because the heat radiates to you and everything in the room. It feels so good and more natural than forced air heating.

How Does It Work?

Here is a simplified explanation of how in-floor hot water home heating works.

Water is heated by a boiler heating system and then circulates your home.
This water is circulated through a series of pipes installed under your floor.
The heat from the water radiates upward, warming the floor and the room above it. This method of heating is efficient as it distributes heat evenly across the entire floor surface.
Once the water has transferred its heat, it returns to the boiler to be reheated.

Compared with a furnace, water instead of air is the medium used for heat transfer. Water holds onto heat longer, making this a smart long-term investment for residential heating.

"Hydronic" systems, which use water, are the most common and efficient for whole-house heating.

In Calgary, installing a boiler home-heating system is a smart decision given our colder climate and long winter months.
