How to Winterize Radiant in Floor Heat
Radiant floor heating is a type of heating that runs tubes of hot water or air under the floors of your home. The heat from the water or air radiates up, thus heating your home. Radiant floor heating systems don't pollute the air in your home and they create a comfortable living environment since they start heating at floor level. If you are going to be gone during the winter, you can winterize your radiant floor heating system. You only need to winterize your system, however, if it is water based. Does this Spark an idea?
