Master Bathroom Transformation

During a full remodel of their master bathroom, the homeowners knew they wanted to create a truly luxurious escape. While they had selected beautiful, high-end stone tiles for the floor, they were concerned about how cold the surface would feel, especially during cooler mornings and evenings. Standard heating methods wouldn't solve the problem of chilly floors.

To address this, their installer, The Kitchen Collection, recommended an in-floor heating system from WarmlyYours. The project was perfectly suited for TempZone™ Flex Rolls, which are easy to roll out and install, making them a favorite for professionals on projects with rectangular or minimally obstructed layouts. The installation team quickly and efficiently laid out 59 square feet of the heating element, ensuring complete coverage of the high-traffic areas in front of the vanity and leading into the shower.

The system was paired with a modern, programmable nSpire Touch thermostat, allowing the homeowners to schedule their floor warming cycles for maximum efficiency. The result is a stunning master bathroom where the floor is always the perfect temperature. This radiant floor heating solution completely solved the cold-tile problem, turning a functional space into the centerpiece of comfort and modern luxury in their home.
