I decided that I was going to redo my flooring in Minnesota.
For years I have had the ugliest carpets in the world, and they were these stained ugly looking brown shag carpets that came with the home! I hated the look, feel, smell, in addition to the way they cleaned up. Finally I decided to treat myself. I ripped them all up in addition to considered getting stone flooring. Thankfully I have a buddy that told me about heated flooring… She said that it is the perfect time for heating installation, however you gotta rip the floors anyway. Also, heated flooring works best with tile, however so I picked myself a great, current gray stone that hardly shows dirt. I also got a local Minnesota heating dealership to do the installation for me. Yes, my flooring project nearly doubled with this heating installation on top of it, but instead of another ugly rug, I have stylish stone with a boiler underneath it. I wondered if it would be too much. Having a apartment heating system in addition to a floor heating system could be overkill. That is the thing about Minneapolis though. It gets so cold here that having two boilers is never a bother. I prefer having the heat at my feet. It is silent in operation, doesn’t rise to the ceiling, in addition to creates no cold spots since it is evenly installed. Using electric vs forced air means the air quality is better too. It is a much better system than my central heating system as well. I think I am constantly going to own heated flooring.
