Radiant heating systems supply heat directly to the floor or to panels in the wall or ceiling of a home or business. These systems depend largely on radiant heat transfer: the delivery of heat directly from the hot surface to the occupants and objects in the room via the radiation of heat. Radiant heating is the same effect you feel from the warmth of a hot stovetop element across the room. When radiant heating is located in the floor, it is often called radiant floor heating or simply floor heating.

Hydronic (liquid) systems are the most popular and cost-effective radiant heating systems for heating-dominated climates. Hydronic radiant floor systems pump heated water from a boiler through tubing laid in a pattern underneath the floor. In some systems, the temperature in individual rooma are controlled by regulating the flow of hot water through each tubing loop. This is done by a system of zoning valves or pumps and thermostats. The cost of installing a hydronic radiant floor varies by location and also depends on the size of the home, the type of installation, the floor covering, remoteness of the site, and the cost of labor.
