A Spa-Like Retreat from the Ground Up

When Michaelson Homes designed this expansive master bathroom, every detail was chosen for luxury, from the marble flooring to the spacious layout. However, the client's primary concern was the cold, unwelcoming feel of tile floors, especially during Ohio's chilly mornings. They needed a heating solution that was discreet, effective, and matched the high-end feel of the remodel.

The ideal solution was electric floor warming. The WarmlyYours TempZone™ Flex Roll was selected for its ease of installation and efficient coverage. The 90 sq. ft. roll was laid out across the main walking areas, the vanity space, and the path to the shower, ensuring warmth precisely where it's needed most. This system was installed directly over the wood subfloor before the marble tiles were set, making it a seamless part of the construction process.

Paired with the programmable nSpire Touch thermostat, the homeowners now have complete control over their comfort. The radiant floor heating system provides silent, even warmth that radiates up from the floor, eliminating cold spots and turning the bathroom into a true oasis. This in-floor heating system now delivers luxurious comfort that matches the room's beautiful aesthetic.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How much does it cost to run radiant floor heating in a Cincinnati master bathroom?

The cost varies by size and local rates. For this 90 sq. ft. Cincinnati project, it costs about $0.22 per hour. A programmable thermostat helps manage energy use, so many homeowners run it for just a few hours a day, making it a very affordable luxury.

2. What type of flooring works with the TempZone™ system?

This system is ideal for Tile, Marble, and Stone, as seen in this project. These materials are excellent conductors of heat, providing the most effective and efficient warmth. It can also be used under many other flooring types, including luxury vinyl and laminate.

3. Is electric floor warming energy efficient?

Yes. Radiant floor heating is highly efficient because it heats objects and people in the room directly, rather than just the air (like forced-air systems). This provides a more consistent, comfortable warmth at a lower thermostat setting, which can save energy.

4. Can TempZone™ system be the only heat source for the bathroom?

In many cases, yes. A 'Full' coverage system like this one (covering 90 sq. ft. in a 152 sq. ft. room) provides a significant amount of heat. In a well-insulated space, it can often serve as the primary or even sole heat source, eliminating the need for bulky vents or radiators.
