Heated Floor Mats
Easy-to-Install Electric Radiant Heat for Any Room
Heated floor mats are the fastest, easiest way to add radiant warmth to your home. Pre-spaced heating elements eliminate guesswork, making installation simple for DIYers and professionals alike.
Whether you're warming a bathroom, kitchen, or bedroom, our floor heating mats deliver consistent, even heat under tile, stone, vinyl, laminate, or hardwood flooring.
With products starting at just $5 per square foot, electric radiant heat mats are an affordable upgrade that transforms cold floors into lasting comfort.
Why Choose Heated Floor Mats?
Fast Installation
Pre-spaced heating elements mean no measuring cable spacing. Roll out the mat, embed in thinset, and tile over—it's that simple.
Perfect for Square Rooms
Mats work best in rectangular spaces like bathrooms, hallways, and bedrooms. For irregular layouts, consider our heating cables.
Even Heat Distribution
Factory-spaced heating elements deliver consistent warmth across the entire floor—no hot spots or cold zones.
Affordable Comfort
Starting at $5/sq ft, heated floor mats are one of the most cost-effective ways to add radiant heat to your home.
Low Operating Cost
Run your heated floor mat for just $0.07–$0.36 per hour. A typical bathroom costs $17–$29/month to heat.
Safe & Certified
All our heated floor mats are UL/cUL listed and designed for safe operation under tile, stone, vinyl, and other flooring types.
Works With Most Flooring
TempZone mats for tile and stone. Environ mats for floating floors like laminate and engineered hardwood.
30+ Year Lifespan
Quality construction means your heated floor mat will provide reliable warmth for decades when properly installed.

Heated Floor Mat FAQs
Yes. While there are some floor heating systems that can be installed beneath floor joists, most electric radiant floor heating systems will need to be installed beneath the floor itself. This is why the best time to install electric floor heating is during a remodel or as a part of a new construction, when a floor is being installed anyways.
If you're interested in alternative radiant heating methods, check out our Radiant Panels, which are wall-mounted and use infrared technology to provide supplemental heating.
Electric floor heating works by having an electric heating cable installed underneath the flooring (embedded or floating, depending on the system and floor type), which is then wired to a special thermostat (either one specifically designed for electric radiant floor heating, like a WarmlyYours’ nSpiration Series control, or a third-party thermostat). When turned on, the heating cable emits heat upward through the flooring which is then radiated throughout the room, heating all solid surfaces.
Many homeowners successfully install electric floor heating as a DIY project, especially with a detailed SmartPlan™. However, the level of professional help needed depends on your skills and project scope:
DIY-Friendly Aspects:
- Layout and installation of heating mats or cables following your SmartPlan™
- Securing cables to subfloor using installation strips or adhesive
- Testing resistance with a multimeter (we provide testing logs)
- Tile or flooring installation if you're experienced with that trade
You'll Need a Licensed Electrician For:
- Thermostat wiring and connection to your electrical panel
- GFCI protection installation (required by code)
- Dedicated circuit installation if needed
- Code compliance and final inspection
Consider Professional Installation For:
- Large or complex room layouts
- Multiple rooms or whole-home installations
- Time-sensitive projects
- Commercial applications
Your SmartPlan™ includes detailed installation instructions that make the mechanical installation straightforward. Our 24/7 tech support is available to answer questions during your project, whether you're DIY or working with a contractor.
Electric floor heating is surprisingly affordable to operate, especially when used with a programmable thermostat. Operating costs depend on several factors:
Key Cost Factors:
- Room size – Larger heated areas use more power
- Flooring type – Tile heats efficiently; carpet requires more energy
- Insulation quality – Well-insulated rooms retain heat better
- Usage patterns – Programmable thermostats significantly reduce costs
- Local electricity rates – Typically $0.10-$0.20 per kWh
- Climate zone – Colder regions require more heating
Typical Operating Costs:
For a standard 100 sq. ft. bathroom with tile flooring:
- Per hour of operation: $0.15-$0.30
- Daily cost (4-6 hours): $0.60-$1.80
- Monthly cost (winter): $18-$54
- Annual cost: $150-$400 (varies by climate)
Cost-Saving Strategies:
- Programmable thermostats – Heat only when rooms are in use
- Smart thermostats – Learn your schedule and optimize automatically
- Zoned heating – Heat individual rooms instead of whole-house systems
- Supplemental heating – Use radiant heat to reduce central heating needs
Many customers find floor heating costs comparable to or less than running space heaters, with the added benefits of comfort, safety, and increased home value. Use our cost calculator for a personalized estimate based on your room size and usage.
Both TempZone Floor Heating Mats and Cables deliver excellent results—the choice depends on your project size, layout, experience level, and climate needs.TempZone Floor Heating Mats are pre-spaced at a fixed 3" spacing (15 watts/sq.ft.) and come in standard sizes (6–210 sq.ft.). They're ideal for:
- DIY homeowners and first-time PRO installers
- Straightforward rectangular rooms
- Faster installation (no spacing calculations)
- Smaller to medium projects
- Consistent heat output across all climates
TempZone Floor Heating Cable offers complete flexibility and is preferred by experienced installers:
- Adjustable spacing based on local climate conditions — you control the watt density
- Colder climates (like New York): 3" spacing (15 watts/sq.ft.) for maximum heat output
- Standard climates: 4" spacing (11 watts/sq.ft.) — our default recommendation
- Warmer climates (like California): 5" spacing (9 watts/sq.ft.) for efficient, moderate heating
- Works in any room shape or size
- Ideal for complex layouts, odd-shaped rooms, or climate-optimized designs
The bottom line: Choose mats for simplicity, DIY projects, and standard applications. Choose cable for customization, climate optimization, complex layouts, and experienced installers. Both systems are compatible with thinset and self-leveling compound, backed by our industry-leading warranties, and supported by 24/7 expert guidance.
Pro Tip: Combining Both Systems
Many projects use a combination of both—mats for large open areas and cables for detailed work around fixtures and in tight spaces. Your free SmartPlan™ will recommend the best approach based on your room layout.
