Project Information
The primary challenge for the Arlington, VT, homeowners was the perpetually cold feeling of their elegant tile and stone floor in the master bathroom. A cold floor is a significant detractor from the comfort of a high-end space. WarmlyYours solved this by designing a TempZone™ Cable system to provide full radiant coverage beneath the 65 sq. ft. heated area.
The installation was straightforward, utilizing the flexible TempZone™ cable secured with GripStrips™ to ensure perfect, even spacing before the flooring was laid. The use of a 120V system was compatible with standard household wiring. The electric radiant heating system directly addresses the cold surface problem, delivering heat precisely where it's needed—at floor level. The outcome is a dramatic upgrade in comfort, providing a gentle, consistent warmth that makes the bathroom a true sanctuary, while the nJoy WiFi Thermostat provides easy, energy-saving control. This radiant heat solution is an ideal comfort upgrade, adding tangible value and luxury to the home.
