Heated Floors Elevate a New Canaan Master Bath

The primary challenge in this master bathroom was the common issue of a beautiful, yet perpetually cold, tile floor. Stone and tile surfaces, while durable and elegant, draw heat away from the body, making for an unpleasant experience, especially in the early mornings. The homeowner sought a seamless, permanent upgrade that wouldn't involve bulky or noisy forced-air systems.

The installation utilized the WarmlyYours TempZone™ Flex Roll, a simple-to-install mat that covers the majority of the floor space quickly. The product was easily installed directly beneath the tile and stone flooring by the contractor, ensuring even heat distribution across the 41 sq. ft. heated area. The system was connected to the nJoy WiFi Thermostat, allowing the homeowner to easily program heating schedules and control the system remotely via a smartphone app.

The outcome is a highly efficient, silent, and luxurious master bathroom. The radiant heat rises directly through the tile, warming the floor and objects in the room, resulting in a consistent, ambient warmth. This upgrade not only solved the cold tile problem but also added a significant comfort and luxury element to the home, making the master bathroom a true spa-like retreat and increasing its overall market value.


Featured Products

TempZone™ Flex Roll (120V) This is a twin-conductor heating cable pre-attached to a fiberglass mesh. It simplifies installation, as the mat is simply rolled out onto the subfloor. It provides consistent 15 W/sq.ft. output, ideal for warming tile, stone, or marble floors and efficiently heating the space.

nJoy WiFi Thermostat - Programmable, Class A GFCI A modern, smart control for the floor heating system. It features a sleek design, seven-day programming, and built-in Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) safety. Its WiFi connectivity allows homeowners to manage the floor temperature from anywhere using the WarmlyYours app, optimizing energy use and convenience.

Circuit Check This essential, battery-operated monitoring device is used during and immediately after the installation of electric radiant heating systems. It constantly monitors the heating cable for continuity and resistance, immediately alerting the installer to any accidental damage that may occur during the tiling or flooring process, ensuring the system is fully functional before the floor is sealed.

* The 608W system costs approximately $0.15 per hour to run, based on the average New Canaan, CT electricity rate of $0.2465/kWh. This translates to only about $1.20 per day (8 hours) to maintain luxurious, warm floors in the master bathroom.

Frequently Asked Questions


The cost to run heated floors is very low, typically ranging from a few cents to a dollar per day, depending on the size and local electricity rates. For this 41 sq. ft. master bathroom system, the operating cost is only about $0.073 per hour, or less than $17.50 per month when run for 8 hours daily. This minimal cost provides significant comfort and luxury.
Yes, electric radiant floor heating, when properly sized and installed, can often serve as the sole heat source for a well-insulated room like a master bathroom. With 15 W/sq.ft. output, the system provides a comfortable, even heat that can effectively maintain the required temperature, especially in a smaller space like this 41 sq. ft. master bathroom.
Electric radiant floor heating systems, like the TempZone™ Flex Roll, work exceptionally well with thermally conductive flooring materials. Tile, marble, and stone are the best choices because they absorb and hold the heat very efficiently, transferring it evenly to the room. Laminate, engineered wood, and concrete also work well with the appropriate system.
Yes, electric radiant floor heating is highly energy efficient. Unlike forced-air systems that heat the air (which rises and is often lost), radiant systems heat objects and people directly. By concentrating the heat where it's needed (the floor level) and using programmable thermostats like the nJoy WiFi Thermostat to run only when scheduled, the system saves energy compared to many traditional heating methods.
