Radiant heating

 A great way to heat your home. Radiant heat works well in log homes and if your home is made of Western White Wood they will store the heat and continue to radiate this stored heat back into your home keeping it warm at a very little expense. This heat storage is due to the thermal mass in this species.

 You do need to make sure that when using radiant heat that you use the right application. If you are installing hardwood flooring a ½” sheet of plywood should be installed between the radiant heat and wood flooring or you may experience warping in your floors. If this is not installed you might find yourself with warped floors and pulling it all up and replacing it. To learn more about hardwood flooring and radiant heat visit www.rare-earth-hardwood.com
