Solving the Cold Tile Challenge
The primary challenge in this Marlborough, MA master bathroom was combating the natural coldness of its luxurious tile and stone flooring. Given the 195 sq. ft. room size, a powerful and customized floor warming solution was required to ensure the entire space felt evenly heated.
The team at Edesia Kitchen & Bath Studio chose to install a TempZone™ Flex Roll electric radiant floor heating system. The large area was covered using a combination of a 105 sq. ft., an 18 sq. ft., and a 9 sq. ft. roll, providing 132 sq. ft. of coverage precisely customized to the room’s layout, avoiding areas under fixtures. This flexibility allowed for full coverage right up to the vanity and shower area, guaranteeing toe-to-toe comfort.
The outcome is a stunning, high-end master bathroom that has been elevated to a true spa-like experience. The radiant heat eliminates cold spots, providing quiet, invisible, and efficient heat that homeowners can control with the smart nSpire Touch Thermostat. This installation serves as a testament to how electric floor heating can transform a necessary space into a personalized haven of comfort, adding a significant luxury upgrade to the home’s resale value.
