Radiant floor heating is very popular in some parts of Texas, since it’s a nice way to heat your home without having a lot of bulky heating elements taking up valuable floor space. For some warmer years, this is important, since homeowners may not be getting extensive use of the system.
One of the downsides to radiant floor heating, though, is that it can be difficult and costly to repair when something goes wrong. The main reason for that is not necessarily due to the heating system itself – it’s often due to the trouble and expense involved in removing or replacing the flooring itself. Fortunately, a professional home inspector can use a thermal imaging camera to identify exactly which part of the heating system is causing the issue. Instead of the guesswork involved in tearing up flooring section after flooring section, thermal imaging can help you see through the floor to locate potential issues.
