Can I use any thermostat w/timer for radiant floor heating?

Jul 19, 2007 by secondfloorloft | Posted in Do It Yourself (DIY)

I just received my radiant flooring and it just came with a standard thermostat. I would like to have the option of having a timer on it, so I can program it to turn on and off when needed. Can I go out and buy any thermostat/timer for the flooring?

Yes you can and you will save money on your heating bills. Make sure that it has an anticipator setting because the radiant heat tends to overheat at floor level while the wall thermostat (at eye level on the wall) is slower to sense the heat.

- Need more heat? Connect the adaptor to a 12 volt lighter outlet in your car, boat, camper or RV. The blanket will heat fully in about 10 minutes. The blanket is designed so the warmth is distributed evenly and there are no 'cold spots'.
- Trips to the doctor, scenic drives, holiday shopping and other outings on a chilly day can all be made more comfortable with the Cozy Car 2 Heated Blanket.
- Want to use the blanket in the back of the car? While most cars have a 12V lighter outlet in the back, the 6' 3" power cord is generally long enough to use the blanket in the back seat. At about 4' 6" wide, the blanket is big enough to be shared, perfect for use on bench seats!
