The Story: Bringing Warmth and Life Back to the Family Room
The family room is the heart of the home, but for this Escondido residence, its cold flooring made it an uncomfortable space during cooler months. The homeowners contacted Preferred Remodelers to find a heating solution that was both effective and invisible, preserving the room's aesthetic. Traditional heating methods like vents or baseboard heaters were ruled out due to noise, dust circulation, and design limitations.
Preferred Remodelers recommended an electric radiant floor heating system from WarmlyYours as the perfect modern solution. The installation featured a TempZone™ Flex Roll, which was easily rolled out and secured over the subfloor before the new flooring was laid. The flexible, mat-like system ensured complete coverage and straightforward installation for the 156-square-foot rectangular space.
The result is a complete transformation. The family now enjoys luxurious warmth that radiates gently and evenly from the floor up, creating an unbeatable atmosphere of coziness. The silent operation means no noisy fans or furnaces kicking on, and the absence of circulating air helps maintain better indoor air quality. Controlled by a sleek SmartStat programmable thermostat, the system provides on-demand warmth efficiently, making the family room the most popular spot in the house once again.
