Summer has finally arrived, and with it a welcome opportunity to shed all those winter layers and feel the warmth of the sun on bare skin, or gobarefoot around the house – is there any better feeling?
Hard floors are a hugely practical trend in modern living, but the arrival of summer really makes you think about how uncomfortably cold they are for a large part of the year, sending homeowners scurrying for socks, slippers and rugs to insulate against the icy cold of tile and stone.
Whilst in the heat of summer that cool feeling is refreshing under bare feet, during winter the cold temperature of a hard floor (particularly stone and marble) isn’t just freezing underfoot – it’s like having a giant ice cube in the room. Cold floors cause the air above them to cool down, which means your central heating has to work even harder to warm the room.
But what if there was a way homeowners could enjoy the freedom of walking barefoot around the house all year round, with luxurious warmth in winter and refreshing coolness in summer? What if they could supplement their central heating with a low-maintenance, energy-efficient system that would make it easier and more cost-effective to heat their home?
