I made a mistake not getting heated floors in my home.
When I first bought my home I knew that the outdated rugs needed to be ripped up.
Since I wouldn’t be moving in a few weeks I figured doing the flooring was smart. There would be nothing else in the home to labor around. It would be so simple. I opted to change the carpet to brick floors too. I learned online that ripping up the floors is what you need to do for radiant heating. Tile flooring is also better than carpets for radiant heat. It seemed like the perfect set up to add this heating system. My partner Max talked myself and others out of it. Max’s point was that every one of us live down south where it doesn’t get that warm. Max and I also have a working central heating system. There was no point in doubling the flooring budget for something that was not required. I let Max talk myself and others out of it plus I have regretted it ever since I moved here. The central heating system isn’t all that powerful. Heat rises so it gets wasted on the ceiling. The brick floors recognize icy frigid during the wintertime. Max and I have needed to buy throw carpets plus wear slippers ever since adding the tile. It hurt so much to cover up my brand new flooring. I would have appreciated to have radiant heating in my house. The heat doesn’t rise, there are no frigid spots plus since it is eclectic based, it is quiet in operation. Now it is too late to add them. The floors are already sealed up. You can’t put down heated flooring separate from totally ruining the floors.
