What We Can Do for You
Whole-Home Radiant Design and Installation
For new builds and additions, we design the full hydronic system, from the boiler through the tubing, manifolds, zoning, and controls. Every system starts with a heat-loss calculation so the layout is sized for your home rather than guessed at.
Radiant Floor Warming for Bathrooms and Tile
Electric floor warming installs under tile in bathrooms, kitchens, mudrooms, and other spots where a cold floor is the first thing you feel in the morning. It’s a smaller project that pairs well with a remodel.
Boiler and Heat-Source Pairing
Hydronic radiant relies on a heat source to warm the water, usually a high-efficiency boiler. We install and connect that heat source, including Viessmann boilers, and match it to the demands of the radiant loops.
What we handle on a radiant project:
- Heat-loss calculation and system design
- Boiler or heat-source selection and installation
- PEX tubing layout and manifolds
- Zoning and thermostat controls
- Pressure testing, filling, air purging, and commissioning
- Coordination with your builder or flooring installer

Hydronic Radiant Floor Heating
Warm water circulates through tubing under the floor, powered by a boiler. It's the most efficient path for heating a whole house with radiant, and it holds an even temperature with very little effort once it's dialed in.
Electric Radiant Floor Warming
Electric mats installed under tile, wired to their own thermostat. This is the right pick for a single room, a bathroom, or an addition where running a full hydronic loop doesn't make sense.
Radiant Retrofits for Existing Homes
New construction is the easiest time to install radiant, but it isn't the only time. For existing homes, we use above-subfloor panel systems or under-joist tubing to add radiant heat without tearing the house apart. We'll assess your floors and tell you what's workable.
How Radiant Heating Works
Radiant heating skips the vents. Instead of blowing warm air, a boiler heats water and sends it through tubing under your floors. The warmth rises through the floor and fills the room evenly, so you feel it underfoot instead of hearing it come through a vent.
That changes how the heat feels day to day:
- Even warmth with no cold spots or drafts
- No blown dust, so it’s easier on allergies
- Silent, with no blower kicking on
- Warm floors, especially nice on tile
- Lower energy use, since it runs at cooler water temperatures
- Room-by-room control with zoning
Radiant can heat your whole home or just one room, like a bathroom or finished basement. We’ll help you decide which fits during your consultation.
Financing Options
A radiant system is an investment in years of comfort, and we don't want the upfront cost to be the reason you settle for less. Financing through Michigan Saves lets qualified homeowners spread the cost into manageable monthly payments, and you can pre-qualify online in minutes before your consultation.
Ask about financing when you schedule your estimate, or start your pre-qualification now.

Local Experience
Years of designing and installing heat for West Michigan means your radiant system is sized for the cold we actually get, not a milder average.
Hydronic and Boiler Proficiency
Radiant heat is only as good as the boiler and hydronic work behind it, and that's a specialty, not something every HVAC company does well. RX Comfort installs and services boilers day in and day out, including Viessmann systems, so the heat source driving your floors is handled by a team that works with hydronic systems regularly.
System Design Done Right
A radiant system that wasn't sized correctly will underperform for its entire life. Every project starts with a heat-loss calculation and a zoning plan, so the tubing layout, water temperature, and controls are matched to your home before a single loop goes down.
Clean, Respectful Service
Whether it's a full build or a single bathroom, work areas get protected, the site gets cleaned up, and your home is left the way it was found.
Who We Serve
Radiant heating is a good fit for:
- New home construction
- Additions and major remodels
- Finished basements
- Bathroom and kitchen tile floors
- Homeowners upgrading from forced air for more even comfort
- Households with allergy concerns who want to skip blown dust
- Builders and property owners planning a heating system from scratch
If you’re planning a project and want to know whether radiant makes sense for it, we’re happy to talk it through.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
It’s a heating method that warms your home through the floor instead of through vents. A hydronic system circulates warm water through tubing under the floor, and the heat radiates up into the room. The result is even, draft-free warmth and a floor that’s comfortable to stand on.
It can be. Radiant works at lower water temperatures and doesn’t lose heat through ductwork, and it pairs well with a condensing boiler. Because the warmth is even and steady, many homeowners are comfortable at a slightly lower thermostat setting than they’d need with forced air.
Tile and stone are excellent conductors and a natural match. Engineered wood, laminate, and vinyl work well too. Thick carpet and heavy padding slow the heat down, so we’ll talk through floor coverings during design so the system performs the way you expect.
Both are possible. A hydronic system with zoning can heat an entire home, while electric floor warming is usually used to heat a single room such as a bathroom. Your consultation determines which approach fits.
For a hydronic system, yes. The boiler heats the water that circulates through the floor. Electric floor warming is the exception, since it uses heating mats wired to your electrical system instead of a boiler. We install and connect whichever heat source your system calls for.
It depends on scope. Electric floor warming in one room is often a same-day job alongside the flooring work. A whole-home hydronic system in a new build runs over several days and gets coordinated with your builder’s schedule. We’ll give you a clear timeline during design.
Yes. Zoning is one of the strengths of hydronic radiant. Each zone gets its own thermostat, so you can keep the bedrooms cooler than the living room, or heat the basement only when it’s in use.
The tubing embedded in the floor can last for decades. The boiler and pumps are the components you’ll eventually service or replace, on a timeline similar to any other heat source. It’s one of the longer-lived heating options available.
It varies with the size of the project, the type of system, and whether it’s a new build or a retrofit. We provide free estimates so you get a number for your home rather than a range pulled off a website, and financing is available if you’d like to spread the cost.
How to Get Started
Step 1
Schedule a Design Consultation
Call, text, or request an appointment online. We'll talk through your project, whether it's a new build, a remodel, or a single room, and figure out whether radiant is the right call.
Step 2
Heat-Loss Assessment and System Design
We measure your home's heat loss and design the system around it: the heat source, the tubing layout, the number of zones, and the controls. This is the step that decides how well the finished system performs, so we take the time to get it right.
Step 3
Installation and Commissioning
Our team installs the tubing and manifolds, sets and connects the boiler or heat source, and wires the zoning and thermostats. Before we leave, we pressure-test the loops, fill and purge the air from the system, balance the zones, and walk you through how to run it. On new construction, we coordinate the timing so the tubing is in before your floors go down.
