Bathrooms

Bathrooms are one of the most popular places for in-floor heating. It transforms cold tile floors into a warm, comfortable surface. Due to their smaller size, bathrooms are also one of the most affordable areas to install these systems.

Basements

Basements often have cold concrete floors, making in-floor heating an excellent choice for increasing warmth and comfort. Installing heating in select areas, like a basement bathroom or lounge, ensures these rooms remain inviting year-round.

Entryways and Mudrooms

For homes in colder climates, heating floors in entryways and mudrooms helps keep these areas warm while aiding in drying wet boots and outerwear quickly.

Laundry Rooms

Laundry rooms, often located in basements or utility spaces, benefit from in-floor heating. Additionally, an uncoupling membrane helps protect tiles from movement and vibrations caused by washing machines.

Outdoor Applications

While standard in-floor heating systems are not suitable for outdoor use, specialized systems are available for driveways, walkways, and patios, preventing ice and snow buildup for added safety and convenience.

The Holmes Group’s Guide to GFCI Protection

Imagen
The Holmes Group’s Guide to GFCI Protection The Holmes Group - GFCIs (ground-fault circuit interrupters) are required in areas with moisture, such as bathrooms, kitchens, and outdoor spaces. They work by shutting off power if they detect a ground fault, which helps prevent electric shocks. If a GFCI won’t reset or keeps tripping, it could indicate a problem with the wiring or moisture intrusion. A licensed electrician should inspect and replace any faulty GFCI outlets to ensure proper function and safety.   The Holmes Group Recommends Upgrading Outdated Electrical Panels Older electrical panels may not be able to handle the electrical demands of modern homes. An outdated panel can lead to frequent circuit overloads, breaker trips, and even fire hazards. Signs that an electrical panel may need an upgrade include frequent tripping, scorch marks, or corrosion. If the panel is more than 25 years old, it is recommended to have it inspected by a licensed electrical contractor.
