The Story: TV-Worthy Comfort with Radiant Heating
When designing a master bathroom for a competitive show like HGTV's "Rock the Block," the goal is to create a space that stands out. The design team for this Marietta, GA home chose beautiful, large-format tile to create a clean and luxurious aesthetic. However, they knew that even the most beautiful tile can feel uncomfortably cold, detracting from the room's spa-like potential. The challenge was to add premium comfort without compromising the design.
The perfect solution was a WarmlyYours TempZone™ Cable electric radiant heating system. The flexibility of the cable allowed installers to work around the bathroom's specific layout, ensuring complete and even heat distribution across all 82 square feet of walkable floor space. The heating cables were easily secured within the Prodeso uncoupling membrane, which not only streamlined the installation but also protects the tile from potential cracks caused by substrate shifts.
The result is a truly luxurious master bathroom where comfort is felt but not seen. The system is controlled by a sleek nSpire Touch programmable thermostat, allowing for precise temperature control and scheduling to maximize energy efficiency. Now, the homeowners can step out of the shower onto a delightfully warm floor, transforming their daily routine into a comfortable and welcoming experience—a key feature that adds significant appeal and value to the home.
