Electric floor heating is an effective and energy efficient way to provide heat for many of the most used rooms in a home while keeping energy costs low. Electric floor heating systems are commonly installed in bathrooms, kitchens, and bedrooms but can also be used to provide extra warmth for rooms like the basement that are hard to heat with traditional air heating systems. Electric floor heating is easy to install and there are floor heating systems for every floor type including tile, vinyl, nailed hardwood, and floating laminate, just to name a few.
A great heating system starts with the right thermostat. WarmlyYours offers two sleek options: WiFi-enabled for remote control and non-programmable for simple, manual adjustments. Both deliver the same modern design and easy operation, ensuring you get the most from your floor heating system.

Yes, electric radiant floor heating is a very efficient way to heat rooms in your home. Electric floor heating systems use electrical resistance to generate heat that is then radiated to the solid objects in a room. This means much less wasted energy than in other forms of heating like forced air, because the solid objects heated by floor heating systems will retain their energy longer than hot air will.
Also, due to the nature of electric floor heating, most users report being comfortable at a lower air temperature setting than if they used a forced air system exclusively, which can translate into significant energy savings. And when you pair floor heating with radiant heat panels, you can add more comfort without relying on furnaces and heat pump systems.
However, while electric radiant floor heating is very cost effective, it still uses electricity. The operating cost for your floor heating system will depend on a few things like the size of your system, the temperature you're trying to achieve, and the cost of electricity in your area.

The type of flooring you choose for your electric radiant floor heating system plays a crucial role in determining the best heating solution for your project. Every flooring material has unique construction methods and thermal properties, which impact the type of floor heating system our team of engineers will recommend in your free, custom SmartPlan.
For example, tile floors require electric floor heating embedded in the same thinset or self-leveling cement that adheres the tile to the subfloor. In contrast, floating wood floors need adhesive-free electric floor heating systems designed specifically for that application.
With our expansive product portfolio and decades of experience, we can identify the ideal floor heating solution for your needs. Did you know that, on average, about 88% of WarmlyYours electric floor heating projects involve tile floors?
In recent years, two of the fastest-growing flooring types for pairing with electric radiant heating have been vinyl (specifically Luxury Vinyl Tile) and wood (particularly nailed hardwood).
Bathrooms and kitchens remain the most popular spaces for electric radiant floor heating. In a typical year, bathrooms alone account for over half of all floor heating projects.
Provide WarmlyYours with a sketch of the bathroom that includes dimensions and other relevant information and you’ll receive a free SmartPlan within one business day that includes an installation plan, an electrical plan, and an itemized quote.

nSpire Touch Programmable Thermostat
We recently had to replace the thermostat for our WarmlyYours sunroom floor. The heated floor was installed in 2012 and this is the first problem we have had. We were pretty sure it was the thermostat when the floor went cold and after a visit from our electrician, he confirmed it was the GFI in the thermostat. The replacement thermostat arrived quickly and we had the old thermostat replaced. We are so happy to have our heated floor back in operation and so thankful for WarmlyYours! We have never been sorry for having heated floors installed in our sunroom and remodeled bathroom. It's the BEST!! We can't thank you enough!
Not only do they just sell you a product, but they follow up after delivery to make sure all is OK and offer 24/7 Tech support for installation issues which came in handy for me.
Very easy to DYI. The instructions and the videos on the website were extremely helpful. The product works great. Nice even heat distribution. I keep the floor temp same as room temp. Big difference in comfort level. Good stuff!
TempZone™ 3.7-Watt Floor Heating Cable
TempZone cable is an excellent, durable heating cable, possibly the stoutest I've worked with. The pricing structure is highly competitive, and in my case, beneath comparable products from at least two other companies.The product range is wide with many options displayed clearly and in an easy to reach modern website complete with shopping carts with log-ins, chat support, sales service. I was amazed at the level of detail applied in an architectural drawing, available as a free service, by the Tech Department. The supplied drawing had icon and color coded start / stop locations, the accurate measurements helped the install breeze by. The cable was well packaged, and shipped a day sooner than expected. I also received follow up service after the install by my representative.
WarmlyYours’ TempZone™ product is most commonly installed under tile, stone, and marble flooring, but can also be installed under many other popular floor covering options such as hardwood, vinyl and linoleum. We also have our Environ system, which is an electric floor heating product as well and is specially designed for installation under carpet (in the U.S. only), laminate and floating wood. WarmlyYours can accommodate any flooring type with either of the electric radiant floor heating products that we offer. If your flooring type isn't listed here, just give us a call at (800) 875-5285 and we will be happy to discuss it with you.
24 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful? Yes NoPlease keep in mind that you must check your electric floor heating system with a digital ohmmeter in conjunction with a Circuit Check™. Take an initial reading as soon as you take the product out of the box to verify that it is within -5% / +10% of the values stated on the product’s label. This will give you a basis of comparison for future readings. Take a second reading once you have positioned the system to match your custom installation plan. It is also advisable to take an additional reading in the middle of the tile installation, just to make sure that the Circuit Check™ is doing its job. Then, take a final reading when you are finished with the floor installation and are ready to hook up the thermostat.
The Circuit Check™ is a tool developed by WarmlyYours to give you peace of mind and ensure trouble-free installations. Simply hook up the cold leads to the tool while you position the system to match your custom installation plan.
The Circuit Check™ will continuously monitor the continuity of the circuit during the installation of your system and during the installation of your flooring. The Circuit Check™ beeps immediately when a short in the system is detected, alerting you to a potentially damaged cable in the area you are working, before you lay the tile over the electric floor heating system. The WarmlyYours technical support team is available 24/7 to provide assistance if the alarm sounds, or if you would have any questions during your installation.

Yes NoThe answer to this question will depend on a whole host of variables related to electric floor heating, including, but not limited to, the run time (for supplemental heating, we usually recommend between 4-8 hours per day), the electric radiant floor heating system you're using, the total square footage, and your local electrical cost. Typically, the cost is just a few cents a day.
