Many areas of the home feature tile floors: tile is ideally suited for kitchens, bathrooms, and mudrooms because it is aesthetically pleasing and easy to clean. One of the shortcomings of tile floors, however, is that they're also good conductors of heat. As a result, if you walk over the tiles with bare feet, the heat will quickly be drawn away from your feet, and in the winter, the floors can be quite cold.

With an underfloor heating system, however, you can turn the conductivity of tile to your advantage. Since heat flows from sources of greater heat to lesser heat, when you walk on a tile floor that is heated, the heat will flow to you instead of away from you. This makes underfloor heating a popular option wherever you might have tile flooring.

While older radiant heating systems required a considerable amount of renovation to install, you can now install electric underfloor heating systems in any single room or combination of rooms. Electric underfloor heating mats are less than a centimeter thick, so you can install them at the same time you remodel your kitchen or bathroom. In addition, you can also install underfloor heating beneath a wood or stone floor.
