We sell excellent heating designs from leading manufacturers such as Wirsbo and Taco pumps. Our Radiant Heat Supplies include PEX Tubing, PEX Fittings and PEX manifolds.

Radiant heating refers to a transfer of energy that naturally searches out colder objects to warm. This type of system will start the process of heating by warming the coldest and closest objects from its source. So, the radiant heating systems are usually placed under floors.
The traditional heating systems will only warm the air to give some form of heat. But when you use our radiant heating system, it warms the floor and the objects in contact with the floor too. So a consistent, even and quiet heating is distributed throughout the entire floor. Radiant floor heating successfully takes the chill out of cold tile, marble and wood floors and makes the place comfortable.
Radiant floor heating is popular due to its main advantages like comfort and quiet operation. In case of other radiators like wood stoves, hot air systems and many more allow heating only in localized areas. But in our radiant heating systems, the heating takes place throughout the whole floor. Also, this type of heating also eliminates the draft and dust problems which was a big disadvantage in forced-air heating systems.
The benefits of a Radiant Heat System are -
The warm and cozy floors give peace and comfort for the family.
Radiant Heat with PEX is the efficient and cost effective heating system for your home compared to all other types of heating equipments.
Based on your living preferences, you can zone different areas of your home to different temperatures using radiant heating.
A radiant floor heating system is extremely flexible and can be installed under practically any type of flooring. You can use Electric radiant floor heat in order to heat up the flooring of small areas like kitchens and bathrooms.
Radiant Heat is popular as it effectively reduces allergies at home and reduces dust mites and air borne allergens by 60%-90%.
Radiant heat systems are invisible outside and are generally installed with PEX Tubing within the structure of your home. Hence there will be no heat registers or radiators to obstruct your furniture arrangements.
A radiant heating system makes your living area more enjoyable by warming the floors to a comfortable level thus increasing the value of your home !

pexsupply asked:
A radiant heating system if designed and installed properly is the most comfortable, efficient heating appliances which can often be installed for less than a forced air system. The innumerable satisfied customers prove the efficiency and comfort to use radiant heat in life.
A properly designed radiant system uses the most competent heat source that is practical. Three thousand dollars plus for a boiler for a two thousand foot house makes no “cents”. A small well insulated home can often use a common water heater to furnish both heat and hot water very efficiently.
The unique technology used in the radiant heat makes this apparatus more comfortable and reliable one. The technology used in radiant heat is that the radiant heats panels transmit energy that naturally warms all the cold objects instead of releasing warm heat or warm air. Mostly due to this reason the radiant heating appliances are places below the floor.
The use of radiant heat is considered as healthier way of heating than other heating apparatus. The radiant heat does not affect the level of oxygen in the room like as common heaters generally decrease the level of oxygen and suffocate the surroundings. As the quality of air is not affected, radiant heat is proved to be medically hygienic and fit to use in every room.
Radiant heat supplies are pocket-friendly and hygienic product that fetches comfort to ones life. With its extensive features and innumerable advantages, radiant heat appliance has become one of the most preferred heating appliances.

Radiant Floor Heat Is Healthy Heat
Posted by radiant heat in In Floor Radiant Heat on December 6th, 2008
Bruce Lipski asked:
Most new homes today are built with forced air heat. Long gone are the days when you would see radiant heaters in the corner of every room.
As I sit here right now I can hear the sound of dry warm heat being forced though the vents in my house. During the winter months, when the air is already very dry, this forced air heating system is especially bad for your skin. The older you get, the drier your skin naturally becomes and having warm dry air circulating throughout the house all day takes a toll on your skin over the years.
Another negative for forced air is that it also kicks up a lot of dust and allergens. The air is moving from room to room and this is unhealthy as it exposes you to more pollen and dust particles. Wouldnt it be nice to have a heating system that just warmed the air rather than move it around?
This is what radiant floor heat does. The two most common types of a radiant heat floor are hydronic and electric. Both of these types of radiant heat systems are installed beneath the floor and the only air that moves is the natural rising of the heat. Radiant floor heat is the safest for you and your skin as there is no air being pushed in and out of vents.
Hydronic radiant floor heat consists of pipes filled with water underneath the floors. The water is heated which in turn heats the floors. This type of system is best installed in a new home as it usually involves setting the pipes in some form of concrete. This is more difficult to accomplish if the home is already built and can be quite expensive.
Electric radiant floor heat involves electrical wires beneath your floor which, when conducting electricity, become heated. This is similar to the way your toaster works. The wires often come in pads and are usually easier to install than the hydronic version. Electric radiant floor heat is usually also cheaper to install but can be more expensive later on. Electricity is historically expensive and thus many people choose to have this type of radiant heating system only installed in their bathrooms or any rooms with cold hard floors.
These are some of the reasons why radiant floor heat is the healthiest type of heat. Besides being more healthy it is much quieter. Forced air can be quite noisy at night when everything is still. You can constantly hear the heat turning on and off if you use a thermostat.
If you ever have the chance to install or upgrade to a radiant heat system, it is something you should seriously consider and might make your life a little more comfortable.

Radiant Heating for Added Value
Posted by radiant heat in In Floor Radiant Heat on December 1st, 2008
Robert asked:
In the face of the current economic downturn, many homeowners are choosing to improve their living conditions by renovating rather than moving home. Instead of making cheap and quick updates for a fast sale homeowners are now looking to invest in a quality refurbishment that will add real value to their properties. This is in fact an excellent time to install a luxurious and hardwearing tiled floor. The one drawback of tiled floors is how chilly they can get in winter, a cause for concern for many homeowners. This problem can be easily fixed by laying electric radiant heating in conjunction with the tiles. To a tile retailer or tiler, this will be the single most worthwhile recommendation they can make to their customers. Not only does it serve as a solution for the immediate issue at hand, it also offers many other benefits.
Aesthetic advantage: Space is always a premium and any opportunity to minimise clutter is precious. The freedom to rearrange existing furniture, to enhance usage of available space,to be creative without hindrance from obstructive radiators, is a powerful incentive for many homeowners.
Greater heating efficiency: Electric underfloor heating provides more than just warmth – it provides a more efficient form of heating. Because the vertical stratification of underfloor heating conformsto the natural inclinations of the human body towards warm feet and cool head, it makes for more comfortable warmth than conventional radiators.
Hassle-free specification and installation: One of the best aspects of radiant underfloor heating must be its installation, and in turn specification simplicity. It works with both wood and concrete floorbases and is thus suitable for period houses and new properties. Plus it does not raise floor height – a crucial consideration in many refurbishment projects.
Peace of mind: Once fitted, neither retailer, installer nor homeowner need to worry about future servicing as there are no pipes to bleed or clean. Should any issues arise the availability of warranties, including popular lifetime guarantees available, provide a security blanket.
