Glad the two of us made the update to heated flooring
When our partner plus I obtained our house it was clear the floors needed some love.
I hated the brown carpet plus wanted something new. The people I was with and I both agreed hardwood flooring would undoubtedly give our apartment a nice touch. It was luxurious, but totally worth it. I live down south, so the weather doesn’t get too cold. However, the two of us were redoing the flooring anyway, but every room was getting ripped up to access the plywood underneath. It was the perfect time for radiant heat replacement, and my partner plus I talked about it, crunched some numbers plus agreed the heating replacement was worth it. It added a step in the flooring replacement process. Now it went cement board, radiant heating, hardwood on top. It almost doubled the cost of what the two of us originally planned on in our home. Now that it is done, I am so blissful. The floors should be superb in our apartment for around 15-20 years. It is nice knowing everything is new, scrub plus fresh. I also did not realize how difficult wood feels under the feet. It also gets freezing in the wintertime. Having radiant heating means that everything just feels warmer plus softer. I haven’t needed to buy any throw carpets. I also like that the system is quiet, efficient plus warms anything that touches it. My dogs in particular like kneeling on the floor now for a nice, long nap; Our apartment has a central oil furnace but when it dies the two of us no longer will need it. The radiant furnace does the task plus then some.
