Watts Sun Touch Floor Warming Systems -I g
ot to spend some time with the guys at Sun Touch. After posting the last blog on radiant heat flooring I stopped to chat to see what else they had to offer. They were kind enough to confirm that all of my concerns were valid, and that I had nothing to worry about. I also learned of a few other benefits that heated floors offer such as the floors drying faster, cats will stay off the furniture and rest on the floor, plants thrive better (especially when the sun goes down) and for the truly spoiled…. you can even warm your shower bench! Sun Touch and Warm Wire are the most requested radiant heat products in North America and takes a lot of pride in the support network they provide to their dealers, end users and installers. No matter what type of application you have or system you want, they have a solution to offer. For added reassurance, they have a product called “Loud Mouth” that sounds an alarm during the installation process if there is any damage to the heating element so it can be easily repaired before the finished flooring is installed.
To be fair
, I also have to tell you about another radiant heat flooring company that impressed me quite a bit called Danfoss. They set themselves apart by offering a product that is simple to install while maintaining the highest quality standards. They offer a self adhesive mat that adheres directly to the sub-floor which in some cases can save an entire step during installation. The heating cables are pre installed in the mat reducing installation time, potential errors while also giving you balanced heating. The connections to the thermostat save time and money thanks to twin conductors that are built over the entire surface of the mat. Time is again saved with the benefit of no need for custom orders with this product.. All size adjustments can be made to the mat on site by cutting with scissors, even in rooms with curves and angled walls. Danfoss offers comfort and peace of mind with their unmatched warranty of 10 years that is transferable and their tool called “The Little Buzzer” that acts like the Loud Mouth product mentioned above. To me, these are signs that a company stands behind their product.
patented process that allows any countertop to be resurfaced with granite or mable without removing the existing countertop. In fact, they can also resurface showers, tubs, boats, RV’s and fireplaces. They do it by using a fiberglass and resin reinforced thin slab of granite that is 7 times stronger than traditional granite. Not only are the slabs stronger, but they are 9mm thick offering the advantage of being 70% lighter than typical 2 or 3cm slabs. This also helps with faster installations. I thought there would be a catch of limited colors, but they offer 25 standard colors and 8 special order colors. All of this and a limited lifetime warranty.
