What is the difference between radiant floor heating and conventional heating
methods?
Unlike traditional heaters, LuxHeat radiant floor heating raises the temperature of the entire floor and evenly distributes heat across the room, eliminating any cold areas.
How does the LuxHeat mat improve the air quality of the room?
Because the radiant floor heating warms objects in the room rather than the air, you can enjoy that cosy, toasty warmth without the stuffiness of traditional heating systems. Additionally radiant floor heating is clean and does not stir up dust particles.
Is the LuxHeat mat easy to install?
Yes. The Mat consists of heating cable pre-spaced on self-adhesive mesh. The mat can simply be rolled out and is kept in place whether flipped or turned due to the self-adhesive mesh on one side and the double-sided tape on the other.
Which floor coverings are compatible with the LuxHeat Mat Kit?
The Mat is suitable to be installed under most floor coverings, including but not limited to:
- Tiled floors, including porcelain, marble, stone and ceramic
- Laminate
- Vinyl
- Engineered hardwood.
Will the Mat Kit take up any space?
No, there are no unattractive plug-in heaters, radiators, or vents after the mat is installed, so no space is lost, and there is no unpleasant noise from fans.
Are LuxHeat underfloor heating mats worth it?
Yes, underfloor heating mats provide unparalleled comfort and luxury while being easy to install and energy efficient to operate. With consistent, even heat distribution and health benefits, this out-of-sight, out-of-mind electric radiant heating solution has become one of the most popular features for remodels and new builds alike.
Which rooms are best suited for electric floor heating mats?
LuxHeat electric floor heating mats are ideal for providing warmth in any room in your home, such as bathrooms, kitchens, living rooms, basements and more. However mat systems are best suited to large open spaces without lots of obstacles or odd-shaped areas, where you can simply roll out the pre-spaced mat, greatly reducing installation time and effort.
How do I know which LuxHeat heated floor mat size I need?
To select the correct heated floor mat size, you will need to carefully measure your heated area following our guide – How to Measure Your Heated Area. This is very important as the heated floor mat cannot be cut or shortened. Once you know your heated area you can choose from our wide range of mat sizes.
What do I need to operate my LuxHeat floor warming mat?
It is recommended to use a floor heating thermostat to operate your floor warming mat, which will allow you to accurately set and control your temperature for maximum energy efficiency. Our heating mat kit selection includes a comprehensive range of thermostats for you to choose from.
