Benefits of New Hydronic Heated Floors
Hydronic radiant heated floors offer countless advantages over traditional forced air systems, there is no guessing as to why this new heating system is quickly becoming the favourite among commercial and residential spaces. We have outlined a few key advantages of hydronic heated floors:
- Efficient zone control: Incorporate multiple thermostats and control valves to efficiently heat specific zones,.
- Lower energy consumption: Hydronic heat feels warmer at lower thermostat settings, leading to lower energy usage compared to air systems.
- Minimal heat loss: Heat produced by hydronic systems remains within the space as there is no loss through ductwork.
- No need for filters: Hydronic systems do not require air filters, as they do not produce blowing air, simplifying maintenance.

How Does Hydronic Heating Work?
Hydronic heating utilizes hot water circulated through sealed pipes to distribute heat evenly throughout your home. Unlike traditional heating systems that rely on blowing warm air, hydronic heating radiates warmth upward, ensuring consistent heat without cold spots or temperature fluctuations. Thermal radiation is the key mechanism at play here, as heat is transferred through the air via electromagnetic radiation waves it gradually warms the space.
Thermostats can be installed to regulate the temperature of each room or zone independently, allowing for personalized comfort settings throughout your home. This zoning capability not only enhances comfort but also contributes to energy savings by only heating the areas that are in use. With proper installation and regular maintenance, a hydronic heating system can provide reliable warmth for many years to come, making it a worthwhile investment for any home.

Common Problems with Hydronic Heated Floors
Hydronic heated floors are an excellent choice for homeowners, but like any heating system, they can experience issues that require attention. Here are the top 3 common issues that may arise with hydronic heated floors:
- Zone Valve Problem: Zone valves are crucial components that regulate the flow of hot water from the boiler to different areas of your home’s under-floor heating system. When these valves malfunction due to wear and tear or improper installation, it can result in inconsistent or halted water flow, leading to unpredictable heating patterns.
- Damaged Piping: While hydronic heating system piping is designed to be durable, it can still be susceptible to damage over time. Factors such as corrosion from regular usage or damage during remodeling projects can disrupt the flow of hot water, causing inconsistencies in heating performance.
- Air Locks: Despite proper installation, interruptions in water flow from the water source can lead to the formation of air locks within the piping of hydronic radiant floor heating systems. These air locks, caused by the accumulation of oxygen bubbles, can block the flow of water and result in disruptions to heating.
Hydronic Heated Floors FAQs
Yes, hydronic floor heating can be installed under various types of flooring, including tile, hardwood, laminate, and carpet. However, the installation process and efficiency may vary depending on the flooring material.
Hydronic floor heating is highly energy-efficient as it distributes heat evenly across the room at a lower temperature, resulting in reduced energy consumption compared to traditional heating methods.
The installation time for hydronic floor heating can vary depending on the size of the area and the complexity of the system. On average, it might take a few days to a week to complete the installation.
Hydronic floor heating systems require minimal maintenance, but it’s recommended to have periodic checks by a professional to ensure the system operates efficiently. This may include inspecting the boiler, checking for leaks in the pipes, and ensuring the thermostat and controls are functioning correctly.
