Project Information:

This beautifully enclosed sunroom in Crystal Lake, IL was transformed into a comfortable, livable space throughout all four seasons with the help of a WarmlyYours TempZone™ radiant floor heating system. Spanning 222 square feet, the room sits elevated from the ground—posing installation challenges that were easily overcome with a custom SmartPlan™ layout and expert execution by Scott Skiermanski, president of Stoneridge Builders Inc.

Electric radiant heat was the perfect solution for this project, delivering powerful, even warmth without disrupting the home’s existing structure. The installation was fast and efficient, with the heating system fully installed in less than a day. Foam insulation in the subfloor, walls, and ceiling enhanced the heating performance for maximum comfort.

After the job was complete, Scott revisited the space mid-winter and found the homeowners thrilled with the results.

“I visited in the middle of winter and the homeowners were very excited regarding the comfort of the room,” Scott shared. “It is a true Four Seasons room that can be used at any time.”

With radiant heat underfoot, this once-seasonal sunroom has become a favorite gathering space no matter the weather.
