5 Reasons Radiant Heating Is Just the Right Thing for Your Massachusetts Home

There are many Massachusetts homeowners who have the perception that switching from traditional forced air heating to radiant heating is difficult. In fact, it's easier than you think and has immense benefits.

Radiant systems use either hot water or electricity to run heat under the floors of your home. The heat under the floors radiates up into your rooms, providing comfortable temperatures and an energy-efficient method of heating your home.

Here are five reasons to consider radiant heating for your home:

  • Reduced energy costs - The most common form of radiant heat systems used in homes is hydronic or water based, an energy efficient option that leads to lower energy bills. The boiler used in heating water can run at remarkably lower temperatures than the one used in forced air systems. Installing a radiant heating system can help you reduce your energy bills by 25 to 50 percent.
  • Increased comfort levels - With a radiant heating system, air doesn't rush around in your rooms like with forced air systems, so there won't be pockets of cold and warm areas in your home.
  • Improved indoor air quality - Radiant heat systems don't blow air around, thus they don't redistribute dust particles, chemicals and other allergens around your house. It's the best option for any household where a family member suffers from allergies.
  • Customize the temperature - With a radiant heat system, homeowners have the privilege of setting room temperatures to comfortable levels. Using a programmable thermostat, you can control temperatures in individual rooms based on the preferences of the occupants.
  • Additional design options - Radiant heating is not only easy to install in new constructions but also in existing homes. Radiant heat mats can be placed under new tiles and radiant panels can be installed on walls and ceilings.
