How does radiant heating work?
WarmRite Floor is installed and in use in homes, schools, seniors’ residences and commercial buildings throughout North America. Super-tough piping (XPA™ composite pipe or PEX tubing) is placed in a looping pattern within the floor. Most often it is installed directly into the ground floor or basement concrete slab. Over top of wooden subfloors, the pipe can be covered by a thin layer of lightweight concrete or sandwiched in between the subfloor and finished flooring. It may also be installed underneath a wooden subfloor between the floor joists. Once the pipe loops are installed, they are connected to a WarmRite Control Panel which connects to a heat source. This can be either a dedicated boiler for primary heating systems or a hot water tank for smaller supplemental systems. Heated water is drawn from the heat source and circulated through the floor piping.
The water flowing through the floor piping transfers energy to the floor which radiates warmth into the room. This warmth is controlled by the WarmRite Floor Control Panel, which senses room or floor temperature and adjusts the heat to suit your needs.
