Radiant heat is the most comfortable and efficient method of heating available. 1. Forced air systems push heat to the ceiling. Radiant heat stays low and to the ground, where the people and objects are. 2. There are less airborne allergies associated with radiant heat systems. Forced air systems blow around dust, dirt and other allergens. There are no fans, blowers or drafts associated with radiant heat systems. 3. Radiant heat systems are quiet! Again no fans or blowers. 4. Radiant heat systems save 20-40% on heating bills and can significantly increase the value of your home.
