The Three Best Benefits of Radiant Heating

Monday, November 21st, 2022

The term radiance just sounds nice, doesn’t it? There are things that radiate joy, light, hope, and the term just tends to make us feel all warm and fuzzy inside. This isn’t a coincidence, the term “radiance” is also an old term in the HVAC industry for a specific type of heat that does almost the same thing!

Radiant heaters are a type of heating system that encompasses common units like boilers, including oil boilers, and electrical radiant heating systems. These types of heaters are very different from forced-air heaters like furnaces and heat pumps, specifically because they radiate through objects and people, causing ambient heat to warm you up instead of the air around you. Traditional systems often use radiators to distribute heat throughout your property.

Ductless mini splits are another energy-efficient heating solution, ideal for homes without existing ductwork, and can be professionally installed to improve comfort and efficiency. These systems also allow individual temperature control in each room, providing a tailored heating experience for every part of your home.

Introduction to Radiant Heating

Radiant heating is a modern, energy efficient heating system that brings comfort to homes by warming surfaces directly, rather than just heating the air. This system uses either electric mats or a network of pipes installed beneath your floors or within your walls to distribute heat evenly throughout your living space. Unlike traditional forced-air systems, radiant heating eliminates drafts and cold spots, making your home feel consistently warm during the harsh New Jersey winters.

For homeowners in Camden County and across South Jersey, radiant heating is an excellent way to reduce energy bills while enjoying a cozy, comfortable environment. The installation of a radiant heating system can be tailored to your property’s unique needs, whether you’re building a new home or upgrading your current heating solution. At Ambient Comfort, our skilled technicians specialize in boiler installation, maintenance, and repair services, ensuring your radiant heating system operates efficiently and reliably all season long. With our expertise, you can trust that your home’s heating system will keep you and your family warm, no matter how cold it gets outside.
