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.

Frequently Asked Questions


The cost depends on your local electricity rates, the size of the room, and how often you run it. For this 323 sq. ft. project in Babylon, NY, the cost is approximately $1.21 per hour when the system is on. Using a programmable thermostat to run it for 8 hours a day would cost just under $10.
In many cases, yes. A system like this, designed with 3-inch spacing for full coverage, provides a significant amount of heat (4476 watts). It can often serve as the primary or sole heat source, especially in a well-insulated room, eliminating the need for noisy fans or radiators.
This project successfully used nailed hardwood flooring. While tile and stone are the most common and efficient, WarmlyYours systems are approved for use under most flooring types, including hardwood, engineered wood, laminate, and luxury vinyl, as long as installation guidelines are followed.
Yes, it is a very efficient form of heating. It warms people and objects directly from the floor up, rather than heating the air and blowing it around. This "radiant" method feels more comfortable at a lower air temperature, and programmable thermostats ensure the system only runs when needed, reducing wasted energy.
