A contractor's guide to selecting floor coverings for radiant heating.
While consumers are warming up to radiant floor heating systems, it's surprising how little information is available about the performance of floor coverings used in conjunction with this type of heat.
How can you, as a contractor, protect your customers from potential damage to floor coverings and an ineffective heating system resulting from improper choice or application of a floor covering? The answer is to arm yourself with knowledge. Knowing the right questions to ask the flooring manufacturer or retailer and who to involve in the flooring selection process will prove much more beneficial than laying down a laminate and hoping it stays put.
