A Small Space, A Big Comfort Upgrade
The owner of this Oakville, ON home, an Instagram Influencer, wanted a premium upgrade for their bathroom to eliminate the chill of cold tile and marble flooring—a common problem in Canadian winters. The key challenge was finding a compact, reliable in-floor heating solution for a relatively small, 18 sq. ft. area that would deliver maximum warmth while being simple to install under the stone surface.
WarmlyYours solved this with the TempZone Flex Roll, a prefabricated mat designed for easy roll-out installation. This choice made the process fast and efficient. The radiant floor heating system now directly warms the floor surface, providing gentle, soothing heat that turns an ordinary bathroom into a spa-like retreat. The finished project delivers consistent, luxurious floor warming right where it’s needed, perfectly complementing the home’s high-end aesthetic while adding proven energy efficiency for year-round comfort.
Featured Products
- TempZone™ Flex Roll (120V) : A twin-conductor heating cable pre-attached to a durable, flexible mesh. It simplifies installation, as the mat is simply rolled out and secured to the subfloor (wood, in this case). Ideal for uniform heat in smaller, rectangular spaces like this bathroom.
- nSpire Touch Thermostat : A sleek, programmable touchscreen thermostat with a built-in GFCI. This allows the homeowner to precisely control the floor temperature and schedule the floor warming to maximize energy efficiency and ensure the floor is warm exactly when they need it.
- FH-BACKUP-SENSOR : (In-Floor Backup Sensor): A critical component included with the system, this sensor is installed in the floor near the primary sensor. It acts as a necessary backup, ensuring that the radiant floor heating system can continue to operate and accurately regulate floor temperature in the unlikely event the primary floor sensor fails, providing peace of mind and long-term reliability.
- Circuit Check : A mandatory installation tool used to monitor the heating cable during the entire installation process, ensuring the system’s integrity before the flooring is installed.
