Detroit has its share of chilly winter weather, but one of the best cures for Michigan's winter shivers is the comfort of luxurious radiant heat. Homes with radiant heat benefit from uniquely rich warmth and unprecedented efficiency. The comfort is generated by a timeless technology that has proven itself through history as the most efficient means of distributing heat available today. The difference today is that instead of rocks being heating by fire, or hot air being routed through hypocausts beneath the floor (as the Romans did), warmth is generated from a heating element, such as electric heat resistant cable that is embedded under the surface of the floor. Yet the inherent efficiency of radiant heat only continues to improve with technology.

Increasing numbers of residents in the Detroit, Michigan area are turning to radiant heat to either complement their existing heating system or to use as the principal heating system for their home or business. A popular application for radiant heat is for the system to be installed in rooms where family members – especially small children – spend most of their time. Since kids play on or near the floor, having a floor heating system creates an ideally comfortable environment on days when the Michigan winter is at its worst. Other popular rooms where radiant heat is installed are bathrooms and kitchens.

Easy to Customize

Because electric radiant heat is so easy to customize, the systems can be installed in virtually any size or odd-shaped room under just about any type of floor. Warmzone^® offers a wide variety of the industry’s most trusted system components and heating elements, each designed with traits that make it especially well-suited for certain types of floor surfaces. A Warmzone radiant heat expert will be happy to listen to your needs and explain the different options to you.

Unparalleled Energy Efficiency

The efficiency of radiant heated floors is unbeatable. Over 99 percent of the energy used is translated directly to heating, so there is virtually no wasted energy. The efficient systems provide warmth by heating the home from the ground up. The heat radiates evenly from the floor, warming objects and people in the room. Electric heated floors operate silently and discreetly — and they’re maintenance free! The only evidence of the system is the advanced thermostat on the wall (and luxurious warmth).

Health Benefits

Another less obvious advantage of radiant heat is the health benefit. Forced-air heating systems rely on blowing hot air through a series of ducts and vents. Unfortunately, dust and allergens tend to collect in the ductwork and registers, so each time the furnace blower kicks on, the contaminants are blown throughout the house. (And every time we vacuum we wonder how the house could get so dusty so quickly.) Radiant heat eliminates the repeated circulation of airborne contaminants. This is especially beneficial for young children, senior citizens, and those with allergies.

Industry Leading Customer Support and Services

While radiant heat offers several advantages over traditional heating systems, purchasing the system from Warmzone also results in advantages for the customer — and the installer. Warmzone support services are unmatched. In addition to installation support, Warmzone includes free installation training for installers. The course covers all the aspects of the installation and can be completed in less than an hour. A certificate is awarded upon completion of the course, and the installer can confidently proceed with the installation. If there are any questions during the installation, a radiant heat expert is on hand to field any calls and answer any questions the installer may have.

Warmzone also provides free system design services and technical support. Electric heated floors are particularly easy to customize, so each floor heating system can be tailored by Warmzone’s expert designers to best meet the specific needs of each customer. Each detailed AutoCAD shows the precise layout of the system components as well as all of the electrical information.

Electricians (and homeowners) will know all the proper load calculations, breaker sizes, number of breakers, and so on, so there is no confusion in terms of electrical issues. Warmzone covers all the bases to help ensure that the installation is completed properly and in a timely manner.
