You've probably enjoyed the warmth of summer with cold showers, but that will be a distant memory as the harsh winter of Quebec approaches. You certainly don't want to bring that chill into your home. Plomberie Chauffage Normand, your trusted plumber in LaSalle and surrounding areas, offers a comprehensive guide to transforming your house into a true oasis, even in the dead of winter. Indeed, radiant heating is the ideal solution to enjoy soft and homogeneous heat throughout your living space, especially in your basement.

 

Why Choose a Radiant Heating System?

Radiant heating creates a warm and enveloping atmosphere throughout your home with its soft and uniform heat diffusion. Beyond this incomparable comfort, there are several practical and advantageous reasons to install it:

 

  • Experience Unequalled Comfort

Enjoy gentle and even heat from the floor, which creates a cozy and inviting atmosphere, including in your basement.

  • Moisture Protection

Radiant heating helps regulate humidity in the house by maintaining a constant temperature, preventing condensation on mirrors and walls, even in the dampest basements.

  • Hygiene and Health

It doesn't stir up dust or promote the proliferation of mites, making it ideal for allergy or asthma patients. The consistent warmth can also help to reduce the presence of allergens and irritants in the air, particularly important in basements.

  • Quick Drying

A heated floor speeds up the drying of surfaces after a shower, which decreases the chance of slips and mould. Additionally, it prevents the growth of bacteria and other harmful microorganisms, making your basement a healthier and safer space.

  • Energy Savings

Unlike traditional radiators, radiant heating warms objects rather than air. This means you can lower your thermostat without compromising comfort, resulting in significant energy savings on your heating bill, especially in your basement.

  • Increased Property Value

A radiant heating system can increase your home's value, especially for buyers seeking comfort and energy efficiency. This can be a valuable investment if you plan to sell your home, especially if your basement is finished and heated.

  • Durability

Radiant heating systems have a long lifespan and require minimal upkeep. This means you can enjoy the benefits of radiant heating for many years to come without worrying about costly repairs or replacements, even in your basement.

  • Discreet installation

Integrated into the floor, our radiant heating systems are both aesthetic and efficient, even in your basement.

 

Radiant Heating Systems Offered by Plomberie Chauffage Normand


We offer two types of radiant heating systems that are ideally suited to your home:

  • Glycol radiant heating: This system uses an antifreeze liquid circulating in pipes embedded in the floor. Glycol radiant heating is used in garages, but also outdoors under terraces and driveways. It is particularly suited to regions with harsh winters, such as Montreal, where it makes snow removal easier.

  • Hot water radiant heating: This system is connected to your existing boiler and distributes hot water in the pipes. It offers excellent performance and is often preferred for basements converted into living spaces where it delivers a more even heat than an electric system.

 

The advantages of our radiant heating systems:

  • Compatibility with different floor coverings: Tiles, hardwood, vinyl... choose the covering that suits your lifestyle for both your house and basement.

  • Professional installation: Our qualified plumbers ensure a careful and efficient installation of your radiant heating system, even in your basement.
