I made the mistake of not getting heated flooring when I first moved into my home.
My home had an old boiler system in the basement.
There was already piping hooked up to it plus everything. To make matters worse the moment I moved into my cabin I decided to replace all the flooring. I ripped everything down to the bare studs, added magnet board plus could have put down piping plus connected it to my boiler. Then I would have experienced hydronic heating for my furnace. My wife convinced me not to. Her point was that it does not get frigid in our area. It would have escalated our flooring price plus the timeframe for installation. She just wanted the project done. So I let him talk me into just doing cement flooring plus leaving the flooring alone. What do you know? I dislike that my floors are always so cold. I have tons of throw carpets now due to the chill. I also dislike that my boiler system is not used to its full potential! Our section is frigid enough that heated flooring would be used most of the year. It is unlucky that in order to get heated flooring you need to rip up your existing floors. After I redid my floors, I sealed my fate for around 15 years. Now I am stuck with frigid cement floors plus no heated flooring. I absolutely wish my wife wouldn’t have talked me out of it. The worst part is that my pal and I did every floor in the home too. So every single room is frosty plus not what I want. I will be waiting a long time before I get my ideal furnace.
