Installing radiant floor heating in a mansion

I’ve been an HVAC technician for several years and I have to admit that one of my favorite things about the job is getting to see all of the different houses. I know that makes me sound like a nosey Rosie, but I can’t help it. It’s really neat to see other people’s homes, styles and- of course- their central heating and cooling preferences. The house I went to last week remains one of my favorites. This place was a mansion. I’m not talking about a big house, I’m talking about an “estate”. They had put in an order for radiant floor heating with a square footage measurement that made my head spin. I couldn’t believe that these people wanted, and were willing to pay for, radiant heating throughout the property! They wanted radiant heating to come out through the towel racks, swimming pools and of course the heated floors. I spent an entire week with my team installing this radiant floor heating system. The thing about radiant floor heating too is that you have to replace your current flooring. So, not only did this family have enough to cover this estate with radiant heating- one of the most expensive forms of heating- but they also had enough to replace all of their flooring and towel racks too! I couldn’t believe it. The estate was gorgeous but after spending all of that time installing radiant floor heating, I don’t know that I ever want to see it again! That’s a lie of course. That house was gorgeous and if they ever invited me over I’d be there in 2 seconds flat.
