There’s nothing like walking on a heated floor, especially when it’s cold outside. The heating contractors at Pointon Heating & Air Conditioning in Baraboo, WI can install an in-floor heating system that will keep you cozy on even the chilliest days.

That’s especially important as fall approaches — somehow, the prospect of walking on an ice-cold floor makes it harder to get out of bed. But a heated floor offers more benefits than you might expect. Here are a few more reasons to hire a residential HVAC contractor to install heated flooring.

• It’s Allergy-Friendly: Individuals who suffer from indoor allergies know that airborne particles distributed by forced-air heating systems can cause irritation. That’s not a problem with heated flooring because the warmth is generated by infrared radiation instead of through the home’s ductwork.

• It Prevents Energy Loss: With a forced-air system, a good percentage of the heat is lost because of leakage or poorly installed ductwork. This causes energy bills to rise, and you might notice rooms don’t feel as comfortable as they should. A heated flooring system is more efficient because it doesn’t rely on ducts to distribute heat.

• It’s Flexible: Heated floors can be powered a variety of ways, including oil, gas, and solar sources. Some are more cost-effective than others in residences; your HVAC contractor will help you weigh your options and decide the most practical choice for you.
