Warming Up a Wide-Open Space
Large living rooms, especially those with hardwood floors, can often feel chilly and drafty, making it difficult to create a truly comfortable environment. The team at CZ Construction was tasked with renovating this spacious 323 sq. ft. living room and wanted to ensure the final result was as comfortable as it was beautiful.
Instead of relying solely on a traditional forced-air system, which can create cold spots and circulate dust, they chose a WarmlyYours electric floor heating system. The team installed TempZone™ Floor Heating Cable, spacing it 3 inches apart to provide powerful, full coverage floor warming. This in-floor heating system radiates heat upwards from the entire floor, warming people and objects in the room directly for a more even and efficient heat.
The system was paired with an nSpire Touch programmable thermostat, allowing the homeowners to easily set a heating schedule that matches their lifestyle, warming the room before they wake up and saving energy when they're away. The result is a stunning living room that feels as warm and inviting as it looks, no matter the weather outside.
