The popularity of radiant floor heating has skyrocketed in the last decade. New materials
and installation methods have allowed radiant floor heating for wood, tile, and concrete floors. Radiant floor heating can be used on carpeted floors in many cases as well. There is no more efficient and more pleasing heating method.
Modern condensing boilers have spurred the use of radiant floor heating. The boiler water temperature in radiant floor heating applications is much lower than in traditional radiator or baseboard installations. This lower water temperature improves the efficiency of the system by 5 to 10% by allowing the boiler to condense. Traditional cast iron boilers cannot take advantage of this because they cannot operate at condensing temperatures as the condensate will cause the boiler to rust.
The Prestige Condensing Boiler and the Challenger Combination or Solo Condensing Boilers are perfect for these applications. The low water temperature maximizes the system efficiency and the heat exchangers are built to handle the condensate. The new Prestige TriMax control helps further maximize efficiency in homes with multiple temperature zones. For instance, many homes have radiant floor heat on the first level and baseboard heat on the second level. The Prestige TriMax is built to manage these different temperatures. If the radiant flooring is calling for heat, the Prestige will operate at the lower temperature, maximizing the efficiency.
It is easy to enjoy the warmth of radiant floor heating when you know it is minimizing your fuel bills. Specify Triangle Tube's Prestige with TriMax control for maximum efficiency and reliability.
