Many people have questions about radiant floor warming heat products because the technology isn’t as prevalent as traditional heating methods. Below are three of most common misconceptions that people have regarding radiant floor heating systems.
#1: “SunTouch mats are expensive.”
The Truth: SunTouch mats are actually very affordable. In addition to the relatively inexpensive cost to purchase SunTouch mats, most customers enjoy the benefit of lower monthly energy costs and little to no maintenance for years to come. But what if there’s a problem with my Suntouch Mats? SunTouch has you covered with a 25 year warranty that even transfers to subsequent owners in the event that you sell your property..
#2: “SunTouch mats are only for new construction.”
The Truth: Today’s leading architects and designers appreciate the benefits, the high level of quality and the comfort that SunTouch mats have to offer. SunTouch mats are becoming increasing more common in construction projects of all types, from new condo developments to high-end luxury homes. SunTouch, however, a company in existence since 1874, understands that not everything is new, and has made it simple to install floor warming mats in buildings of all ages, whether newly constructed or of historical significance.
#3: “SunTouch floor mats can’t heat a home & can’t be healthy”
The Truth: SunTouch mats offer a host of advantages in comparison to traditional heating systems. In addition to saving money, increasing energy efficiency in your home and having more space in your residence without the need for a bulky furnace, you’ll also enjoy the advantage of a greener, healthier heating alternative. In comparison to traditional heating methods, SunTouch mats offer the following benefits for a healthier home:
- Lower EMF emissions
- Significantly less dust is produced
- Reduction of mold, bacteria, and other allergens present in other heating systems.
