Put it in my new house and love it so far. It's weird, it really is radiant. When you walk it the heat 'shines' up at you. If you put in multiple zones (with thermostats) when you walk from one zone to another, the sensation of changing temp is immediate, a clean demarcation.

I'll never go back to forced air heat. BTW, (I know some may be getting tired of me harping about this stuff) if you haven't done it already, look up solar air heaters. They're cheap and easy to build and provide free clean heat. While you're at it, go to Wikipedia.com and check out my article on Earth Cooling Tubes. I just installed them on my new home and will be reporting on their effectiveness in a few hot weeks. Anybody else doing anything new to stay warm or cool without spending a fortune?
