Heated Floor Systems

Q: Can I set up the heated floor with my smart home system?

Yes! We supply thermostats compatible with Google Home, Apple Home and Alexa.

Q: Will the heat cause my tiles to crack?

Not when properly installed, the heating cables are installed in a bed of thin set mortar at a certain proximity to itself and other heating and plumbing elements in the room. The mortar allows the heat to dissipate to slowly warm the tile. The mats where the wires are embedded are also designed to act as an uncoupling membrane allowing any movement to be absorbed by the mat and not the tile.

Q: Can I install heated floors in a 3 season room or shower?

Absolutely! Those are perfect places to benefit from heat radiating through your floor. Not only are they rated strong enough to be used as primary heat sources in certain conditions, it will greatly add to your comfort and value of your home.

Q: Are radiant floors considered an efficient energy source?

Yes, they can save on home energy costs, radiating warmth even after the thermostat has been turned off. Specialty mortars such as Laticrete’s conductive thinset additive,‘Strata Heat Thermal Pack’ and Schluter’s fleece backed membrane further increase efficiency by 15%-20%.

Comfort at your fingertips

A heated floor underfoot on a frosty morning or late night walk to the fridge can transform the jarring cold of winter time into a warming comfortable experience. Take the edge off of winter and stay comfortable no matter the weather!
Smart and programmable thermostats warm the floor up to 85 degrees and radiate warmed air out into the room. It can even make an unheated garage or basement comfortable. Perfect for 3 seas on sun porches or semi - finished laundry areas.
Systems are configured with either electrical wires set in a mortar bed or hot water running through pipe. The best system for you will depend on what flooring material you select for the surface and if you are retrofitting or working with new construction.
The experts at Oneida Floor can help you select all the necessary components for your heated floor system. Because the electrical wires are sized per project, it is important to get the details right.
