What are the benefits of this heating system for the consumer?
Similar to the sun, the Momento Mat floor heating system uses radiant heating, which bodies are naturally and readily receptive. Occupants immediately feel an enveloping and penetrating heat, for a sense of lasting comfort at lower temperatures. It's easy to add up: greater comfort less energy consumed = energy and cost savings.
Apart from providing superior comfort, Momento Mat is clean (dust free), invisible, quiet, compatible with other heating systems, economical (operating cost for a room equivalent to two 100 watt lights left on at all times), safe, and maintenance free.
Can the Momento Mat floor heating system be a room's main heat source, without additional heating?
Absolutely. Some people install floor heating as a secondary heat source, simply to have a warm floor, for added comfort, while others install it as a room's main source of heat. Floor heating systems use the principle of radiant heating. By heating objects through radiation instead of heating the air, they provide a sense of comfort at a lower temperature than other heating systems, therefore requiring less energy.
Which floor coverings are compatible with the floor heating system?
Momento's Mat floor heating system was designed especially for ceramic or natural stone floors. It can also be used with "engineered" wood, vinyl, or other flooring, provided the manufacturer confirms it is compatible with a floor heating system.
In addition, if the heated floor is to be the room's only heat source, rather than a secondary heat source used only to warm the floor, it is important to choose a floor covering able to withstand continuous and occasionally more intense heat.
Can carpet be installed over Momento Mat?
Yes, if the system is completely embedded in self-levelling cement. You can install low-pile carpet over the slab if the carpet's thermal resistance does not exceed R = 0.7
How can I get a free cost estimate?
Make a scale sketch of the floor of your room, being sure to indicate fixtures (counter, cabinets, appliances, toilet, shower, etc.) and exact measurements. Specify thermostat placement. Fax your drawing to 1-418-663-7267 or email it to info@momentoconfort.com. The Momento experts will review your plan and determine its feasibility. They will provide a custom installation diagram, information on the quantities of materials required, electrical specifications, personalized advice, as needed, and the price.
