Description
TempZone Easy Mats are used to provide targeted spot heating in high-traffic areas under tile, stone, marble, or LVT flooring. Heating only the areas you use most helps to cut down on both material and operating costs without sacrificing comfort.
These twin-conductor mats are easy to install as they require no cutting simply unroll it, attach it onto the subfloor, embed it in the adhesive (thin-set or self-leveling cement), and finally install the floor covering.
This floor warming kit is specifically designed to provide radiant heat for a medium bathroom (between 41 and 110 sq. ft.). The included mat can be installed under the most commonly used areas of the floor in a heating method known as spot heating. This kind of heating is an extremely efficient way to incorporate the luxury and comfort of a traditional full coverage floor heating system while cutting down on both material and running costs. The heating elements in this kit are extremely easy to embed under some of the most commonly heated floor coverings like tile, marble, stone, or luxury vinyl tile/plank. This kit also comes with a Circuit Check electric continuity alarm which will alert you if the heating cables are damaged during installation. Additionally, the included thermostat comes with an included floor sensor and an attractive 3.5 full-color touchscreen, which makes it easy to use. The programmable thermostat can be set up with 6 separate temperature events per day, which means you can customize your comfort while cutting down on operating costs.
Is Electric Floor Heating Energy Efficient?
The answer is yes, electric radiant floor heating is a very efficient way to provide heat. Electric floor heating systems use electrical resistance to generate heat that is then radiated to the solid objects in a room. This means much less wasted energy than in other forms of heating like forced air, because the solid objects heated by floor heating systems will retain their energy longer than hot air will. Also, due to the nature of electric floor heating, most users report being comfortable at a lower air temperature setting than if they used a forced air system exclusively, which can translate into significant energy savings.
However, while electric radiant floor heating is very cost effective, it still uses electricity. The operating cost for your floor heating system will depend on a few things like the size of your system, the temperature you’re trying to achieve, and the cost of electricity in your area.
Weve Talked About Energy Efficiency, Cost Efficiency, and Application, but What About the Most Important Part: Luxury
Electric radiant floor heating is a luxurious experience that has to be felt to be understood. In a regular bathroom, you know that the moment you touch your toes on the tile a shiver will go up your spine. Turning up the furnace or laying down bath mats (so you dont have to touch the floor) are only partially effective solutions to this problem.
Electric radiant floor heating makes it so that the instant your feet meet the tile, stone, or laminate in your bathroom, they will feel a sensation of warmth.And, because the radiant heat rises from the electric floor heating to warm the objects in the room, you won’t have to make a mad dash for the towel to warm your body. You can enjoy your bathroom because electric radiant floor heating has turned a frigid space into a toasty and enjoyable room of relaxation. And if electric radiant floor heating can give you the comfort and luxury that youre looking forand do it at such an unbelievable cost and with such easy installationthen why would you ever pick anything other than electric floor heating?
Flooring Types and Electric Floor Heating
The type of floor you want to use with your electric radiant floor heating system will have a huge impact on the floor heating system. This is because every floor is made of different materials and has unique construction methods. For example, tile floors need to be paired with electric floor heating that is embedded in the same thinset or self-leveling cement that adheres the tile to the subfloor. On the other hand, floating wood floors require adhesive-free electric floor heating systems that are designed for that application. With our expansive product portfolio and our decades of experience in the industry, well be able to identify the right electric floor heating systems for your project.
Did you know that in an average year, about 88% of all electric floor heating projects for WarmlyYours involve tile floors?
In recent years, two of the fastest growing flooring types for pairing with electric radiant floor heating have been vinyl (specifically Luxury Vinyl Tile) and wood (largely nailed hardwood).
Bathrooms and kitchens are the two most popular rooms for electric radiant floor heating. In a typical year, bathrooms will make up over half of all the projects that use floor heating systems.

Why Install Electric Floor Heating?
ComfortThe number one reason to install electric floor heating under a new floor is absolutely the comfort, a heated floor is literally a luxury you can feel but you probably already knew that. |
SafeThe number one reason to install electric floor heating under a new floor is absolutely the comfort, a heated floor is literally a luxury you can feel but you probably already knew that. |
AffordableElectric floor heating is inexpensive if you put it in while youre already replacing or installing a floor. In fact, the cost of electric floor heating systems is as low as $5 per square foot. Unlike hydronic systems, electric floor heating systems don’t require expensive pumps or water heaters. Additionally, According to Zillow,homes with heated floors typically sell for 3.2% more. |
FlexibleElectric radiant floor heating can be used as your primary heat source or as a way to add supplemental heat to rooms that are tricky to heat like the basement or a room above a garage. |
CleanElectric radiant floor heating is a very clean heat since it doesnt rely on forced air, which can circulate dust and other allergens. |
Forced Air AlternativeFloor heating systems aren’t loud like a central furnace, don’t dry out the air, and require no regular maintenance. |
Saves EnergyElectric radiant floor heating has higher levels of energy efficiency than central air systems because it heats the people and objects in the room directly via infrared heat. Floor heating systems are also inexpensive to operate, you can heat a typical bathroom for pennies a day. |
Easy-to-Use ThermostatsThe secret to any great heating system is a great control and we’ve got an entire line of them for our electric floor heating systems. |
