September 20, 2007 00:09 AM  BY  WARMZONE

With a name like Warmzone, we have an unspoken obligation to live up to the task of matching our customers to the best available system of warmth and comfort.  We strive everyday to ensure that our products and our knowledgeable, dedicated staff will leave memories of service that is second to none, and products that will provide years of enjoyment.

A brief history of Warmzone allows consumers to understand why Warmzone was created. Warmzone realized the growth in the radiant heat industry was causing problems for consumer and contractors due to the abundance of technical information and product choices. Making the right choice for a radiant heat system is crucial and carries serious implications to its cost and effectiveness.  Serving as an intermediary between manufacturers, contractors and consumers, Warmzone’s role is to match individual needs of a project to a heating system that makes the most sense.  We strive to match our customer’s needs with the finest radiant heating systems available.  Warmzone.com offers non-biased, individualized solutions that factor the installation, durability, performance and operational investment as the key criteria for our customers.

There are several variables that Warmzone considers when looking at a project.  Some of these variables include:  square footage, the type of floor covering, the amount of heat needed for a given area, whether that heat will be the supplemental or primary source, how well insulated that environment is, and if it is a major remodel or completely new construction.
           
Based on this criterion, we can then discuss the benefits of a radiant heating system and which technology would be most appropriate for a consumer in terms of effectiveness, efficiency, operational costs and overall upkeep and maintenance.

Because radiant heat is relatively new in the United States, there is a continuing need to educate consumers about a wide variety of radiant solutions.  In the interest of avoiding confusion and finding the best possible application, Warmzone has done most of the homework for our prospective customers.  Our professional consultants learn the details regarding your heating goals and then propose a system that can be easily installed and will fit your budget.  Warmzone continues to strive toward being viewed as the premier radiant provider.  “We want customers to feel confident in this market and receive honest information and pricing regarding the best available products,” says Brandon Weaver, Vice President of Sales.

With so many options in the radiant industry, Warmzone.com is helping contractors and consumers with the pros and cons of each system.  Representatives of Warmzone suggest the best possible system for any project.  We are not tied to any one manufacturer and will provide the very best in pricing and information available.  Warmzone has a very direct relationship with select manufacturers thus eliminating the ‘one size fits all’ sales pitch normally received by homeowners. Using various forms of technology, Warmzone’s focus is to provide customers with the most pertinent information in record time. We know this is the key to establishing trust and long term partnerships.

As heating costs skyrocket, radiant heating continues to come to the forefront.  We at Warmzone excel in providing options that are affordable, convenient and specifically tailored to the needs of individual consumers.  As we match products with needs, we continually strive to provide our customers with “warm, pleasurable” heating experiences.  After all, feeling warm IS a wonderful thing!

Non-Traditional Heating is Now Mainstream

December 20, 2008 00:12 AM  BY  STACEY BARRUS

Not traditionally used in heating homes, flat panel radiant heaters are used to heat objects via radiant heat transfer. These radiant heaters have traditionally been used in a variety of industries and applications, such as space heating, drying, curing, and water evaporation. More recently, these heating systems are also gaining popularity in home heating applications as well.

Radiant heaters use different types of emitter surfaces. Choices include: quartz, high-temperature glass, stainless steel, and ceramic tiles. These are all materials that are easily and efficiently used in home applications such as flooring, countertops, and towel racks. Because these items are easily turned into emitter surfaces for radiant heat, they can easily and beautifully be incorporated into home heating applications such as heated floors, walls, and towel racks.

Radiant Heating Can Improve the Air Quality of Your Home

December 24, 2008 00:12 AM  BY  STACEY BARRUS

What a pain! If you or anyone in your family has asthma or dust allergies, you know all too well how miserable these ailments can make a person. Many allergy and asthma experts will advise certain changes in housekeeping habits to help alleviate allergy- or asthma-causing conditions in your home. In addition, you might consider changing your heat source to radiant heaters.

At first glance, you might not think that radiant heaters could be such a simple solution to helping keep your home healthy. In reality, radiant heaters improve the air quality, which is important, especially for anyone who suffers from either dust allergies or asthma. Not having to change air filters or clean heating ducts should also cut down dramatically on dust or other allergens in your home’s air.

Eliminating dust mites that live in your home would also go a long way towards helping keep your home healthy. Since dust mites love a warm moist environment, towel heaters and other radiant heater systems aid in maintaining a consistent room temperature and keep it moisture-free…and dust mite-free, too.  Furthermore, mold and mildew are also caused from excessive moisture especially in bathrooms with insufficient ventilation.

Radiant Heater Tip: By placing radiant heaters or a radiant heat towel rack in the bathroom you can combat the spread of germs for only pennies a day.

Cut Heating Costs the Radiant Heat Way

December 14, 2008 00:12 AM  BY  STACEY BARRUS

If you are looking for a great way to save energy, and maximize comfort, then radiant heaters may be the perfect solution. Installing radiant heaters in a home under construction or in an existing home is proven to cut heating costs. It works by putting water lines in the home’s concrete floors or under existing floors and running hot water through them. Radiant heaters help to keep the whole house at a more constant temperature. In this way, our regular heaters don’t have to do as much to keep things warm and toasty during the winter.

Switching to radiant heaters will not only help save energy, and lower heating costs, but it ads to comfort as well. That is because it put the heat at our feet, which are generally cold, and offers cooler air near head level, where we are generally a little warmer.

Many times, what first springs to mind when people think of eco-friendly energy and heating is solar power. While solar panels are expensive, there are other eco-friendly ways to cut your power bill. In fact, energy savings can be found right beneath your feet: radiant heaters.

Radiant Heaters Tip: Many people waste a lot of energy by not sealing cracks, doors and windows; checking to make sure a home’s insulation is in good shape and replacing it if it’s not is another good way to stop energy waste.

Adding a Heating Source to Your Home is Easier than You Think

December 11, 2008 00:12 AM  BY  STACEY BARRUS

Have you ever gone on a ski vacation for the weekend and stayed at a little ski lodge? A lot of the times, they’ll have a huge fireplace in the main room with smaller bedrooms up in the loft area or second-story. But the problem is that when you’re in the main room with the roaring fire, you’re often overwhelmed by the heat and retreat to the bedroom, where it’s far chillier. You see, many vacation or weekend homes weren’t built with air conditioning ducts with which to deliver the heat to the different rooms of the house. However, there is a solution to adding heating to homes that have not been built for traditional forced air systems: radiant heaters.

As opposed to warm air systems (such as a forced air unit heaters), radiant heaters deliver the source of heat to the floor level, not the ceiling. Radiant heaters or radiant energy is the oldest form of heating used to provide comfort and is the basis for all heating systems.

Additionally, radiant heaters also offer more comfort than forced air heating by heating the atmosphere from the ground up. Since heat rises, the heat will be more evenly distributed, providing a much more comfortable atmosphere.

Radiant Heaters Tip: Radiant energy is totally pure radiation and is absorbed by an object without physical contact with the heat source or by heating the surrounding air, as is the case with convective, forced air systems.
