Considering heated Tile floors

[Kurt Horvath]

Hi Liz,

I have heated tile floors in the Bath Room of my house. NICE! there is nothing
like warm feet in the morning. Can set the temp to over 100 degrees. I also
lived in an apt in Belgium that had heated floors in the entire apt. Very nice
indeed. If your feet are warn the air temp doesn't seem to much matter. I am
going to replace the tiles in my kitchen and bath on my coach, I will place
electric heating mats on the floor before the tiles go in. I'm not sure of the
draw on the electric system in your coach, but as with any 120V heating system,
it is power hungry. There are also hydronic units that use antifreeze in pipes
that are laid on the floor under the tiles. They use a special plastic pipe, The
problem you may run into is the thickness of these pipes. If you can over come
this, then you would have unlimited heat if you could run the system through
your engine. I heard of these systems in some of the other custom coaches,
(PREVOST). So I know it can be
done. Just a question of time & money. Good luck, let us know how it goes.

Howdy.

Since our kitchen and bathroom tile floors need to be replace, we are
considering having heated
tile floors. Do you have them in your coach? Pros or cons would be
appreciated.

TIA,
Liz
