Hello and thank you for joining us for our live webinar. I'm your host, Scott Rosenbaum, and today we will be discussing how WarmlyYours can help increase your sales with two free tools developed specifically for professionals like you. In this session, you'll learn how to utilize both the WarmlyYours SmartPlan and our Operating Cost Calculator to elevate your business. If you have any questions during the webinar, please click on the Q&A button located in the top left corner of your screen. We will address these questions, along with those received during the registration process, at the end of the session.

As a professional in the field, you know that when selling a product or service, customers will inevitably have questions. Our 24/7 customer support means I am very familiar with these inquiries. While radiant heating may be a small part of your overall business, it is a crucial one. It can be the deciding factor between winning a client and losing them to a competitor. To assist you and your customers, we have developed tools that provide all the necessary information to get projects moving forward. With the WarmlyYours SmartPlan and Operating Cost Calculator, you can answer customer questions about radiant heating clearly and professionally. Best of all, these tools are completely free.

Radiant heating is synonymous with comfort and luxury, but these terms often lead customers to associate them with high costs. We understand that while everyone desires a heated floor, they will have numerous questions regarding price and operating costs. The SmartPlan and Operating Cost Calculator enable you to present actual costs based on specific projects, which instills confidence in your customers. Now that we've covered the importance of these tools, let's discuss how they work, starting with the SmartPlan.

Each SmartPlan is individually prepared by our team of skilled engineers and includes everything needed to initiate a project. This encompasses an itemized product quote, an electrical plan, and an installation plan. The itemized product quote breaks down the total project cost into easy-to-read sections, detailing the heating elements and controls, their dimensions, and prices. You'll also find optional add-ons and suggested kits relevant to the project, with no hidden fees. WarmlyYours is committed to transparency in pricing, ensuring that customers receive clear information.

Next, let's examine the installation plan, which graphically represents how the heating system will be installed. This visual aid not only provides professionals with essential information to complete the job but also serves as a straightforward way to explain the installation process to customers. Additionally, the electrical plan outlines the specifications of the products in your quote, the system's electrical requirements, and concise notes for your review before presenting to clients.

So, how can you obtain a SmartPlan for your customers? It's simple. Just provide WarmlyYours with a basic floor plan sketch, and within one to two business days, you'll receive your SmartPlan. The sketch does not need to be elaborate; it should merely illustrate the room's dimensions and indicate any permanent fixtures, such as tubs, cabinets, or air vents. Once your sketch is complete, you can submit it to WarmlyYours in several ways: by drawing or uploading it directly to our instant quote tool, faxing it to us at 800-408-1100, or scanning or photographing it and emailing it to info@warmlyyours.com.

As a professional, you understand that customer assumptions can hinder sales. The SmartPlan clarifies the costs associated with a radiant heating system, but what about the ongoing operating costs? The WarmlyYours Operating Cost Calculator was designed to address this question quickly and accurately—and yes, it’s free! To use the calculator, visit warmlyyours.com, navigate to the services tab on the main menu bar, and click on Operating Cost Calculator. For this demonstration, we will select TempZone, our most popular product line, which pairs well with many common flooring types.

After selecting TempZone, enter the zip code of your project. This allows the tool to determine the kilowatt-per-hour cost of electricity in that area. Next, indicate how long you plan to run the system each day. Some customers mistakenly believe they need to operate it 24/7, but you can set the thermostat to activate only when you are home, making the system more cost-effective without compromising quality. For our example, we’ll use eight hours, which is the typical daily runtime for our customers. As you can see, the cost to run the heating system during this time is just 22 cents per day.

These tools help eliminate customer concerns, as any remodeling or new construction project can feel overwhelming. By providing specific numbers, you help clients see the bigger picture, ultimately leading to increased sales. If you have any questions, please feel free to submit them now by clicking on the Q&A button located in the top left corner of your screen. We also received some questions during the registration process regarding our products. For instance, Joey asked about the types of heating elements required for different flooring types. At WarmlyYours, we offer various options tailored to specific flooring needs. For tile, we recommend our TempZone system; for carpet in the U.S., our EnvirOn line is ideal; and for new concrete slab floors, we suggest our slab heating system. Each product line is designed to accommodate a range of designs, installation options, and price points, all of which can be explored on our website.

Additionally, Chris inquired about hydronic systems. While we specialize in electric radiant heating, I can explain the key differences between the two systems. Both hydronic and electric systems provide warmth, but hydronic systems typically require a significant upfront investment for installation, including tubing and boilers. In contrast, electric radiant heating offers a more budget-friendly option for incorporating radiant heating into your projects without deterring customers. If you have further questions about the differences between hydronic and electric systems, please reach out, and we will gladly provide the information you need.
