Radiant Floor Heating Installation FAQs for West Bend, WI
Answers to practical questions about planning radiant floor heating installation in a West Bend home or business.
What is the difference between hydronic and electric in-floor heating?
Hydronic systems circulate warm water through flexible tubing in or under the floor, heated by a boiler or water heater. They are common for larger areas and whole floors. Electric systems use thin heating cables or mats set beneath the flooring and are often chosen for a single room, such as a bathroom. The better choice usually depends on the size of the space and how the rest of the home is heated.
Which floor coverings work best over radiant heat?
Tile, stone and concrete are typically the best partners for radiant heat because they conduct and hold warmth well. Engineered wood and many vinyl products also work when they are rated for heated floors. Thick carpet and heavy padding can be used, but they act as insulation and slow the heat from reaching the room. Checking the flooring manufacturer's guidance before you buy is always a good idea.
Can heated floors be installed in a basement or garage slab?
Yes. When a new slab is poured, hydronic tubing can be laid out and set right into the concrete, with insulation underneath so the heat rises into the space rather than into the ground. Existing slabs can often be fitted with a thin overlay system instead. Heated basement and garage floors are a favorite in Wisconsin, where cold concrete can make those spaces uncomfortable for much of the year.
Can in-floor heating be added to an existing home without tearing out the floor?
Sometimes. Where there is open access below, such as an unfinished basement ceiling, hydronic tubing can often be attached to the underside of the subfloor with heat transfer plates. Low-profile overlay panels are another option that adds only a small amount of height. When neither works, the existing flooring typically comes up, which is why many homeowners add heat during a bathroom remodeling or kitchen project.
How is a radiant heating system controlled?
Most radiant systems are divided into zones, each with its own thermostat, and many use a floor sensor so the surface stays at a comfortable temperature. Because the floor warms and cools slowly, radiant heat works best when set and left alone rather than turned up and down often. It can also run alongside a furnace, which our heating services team can help you plan.

I built a new home and Wilkes was great from start to finish. Caroline in the office was always helpful when I had questions. Jerry went above and beyond in not only taking care of the plumbing, but also to coordinate with other contractors to make sure all of the small details were handled correctly by all. I would highly recommend. Thanks for a great experience!

Very friendly staff, very professional. For some reason I trusted them right after my initial phone call regarding my issues at my house, Robert showed up when me and my wife were at work I opened up my garage door and he did his thing and closed my garage when he was finished. Would highly reccomend them to anyone and definitely use them again in the future for my household needs!

What a fantastic company! Not only did they come out and fix our sink drain and install a water heater in a timely fashion, they just went above and beyond to help us out! We just recently moved to a new house and they were more than understanding with our needs both financially and for the house. I recommend Rob highly for any plumbing needs! Thank you again for everything

Wilkes did a great job and coordinated with the biz doing our new flooring (Ideal Custom Flooring). We had 2 plumbers out that were friendly, efficient and patient with working around all of us being in the house as well. Highly recommend but they are a very busy shop so your best bet is scheduling well in advance of your plumbing needs, excluding emergencies.
