HUG Hydronics: Versatile Radiant Heating Solutions

Residential Heating & Slab-on-Grade Applications

For any residential project where you want to heat a concrete slab, in-floor heating is a premier choice that can save approximately 1/3 on energy costs (according to the US Department of Energy). This slab on grade heat method works by using the thermal mass of the cement to hold and release heat as needed. It is a perfect solution for new construction infloor heating or new construction radiant heating in barndominium heating projects, cabin heating, and tiny home heating. 

Expert Tip: To ensure maximum efficiency for your basement infloor heating or basement radiant heating, always remember to insulate under the cement before the hydronic heat for concrete slab installation. This prevents heat loss into the ground.

Renovations, Additions & Wooden Floors

You don't need a new concrete slab to enjoy radiant comfort. During home renovations or a home addition, HUG Hydronics can be adapted for wooden subfloors. Common methods include a gypcrete over-pour where PEX is encased in a thin layer of gypsum cement, or "staple-up" applications where tubing is installed under the joists. When considering the gypcrete radiant cost, factoring in the gypcrete infloor tubing cost and the ease of a gypcrete infloor tubing install often makes this a high-value upgrade for existing homes.

Agricultural, Commercial & Specialized Applications

HUG Hydronics is a rugged choice for commercial shop floor heating systems and distribution center heating. Many owners use a DIY pole barn floor heat kit to manage pole barn heating, garage heating, or machine shed heating. It's also the gold standard for aircraft hanger heating or hanger heating and carwash heating. 

Farmers and hobbyists find it invaluable for greenhouse heating, grow operations heating, and off grid heating in remote outbuilding heating or workspace heating setups. If you're wondering how to heat a garage floor with PEX or need radiant heat for detached workshop or shop heating, our system is designed for simple, reliable performance.

Snowmelt Solutions

Say goodbye to the shovel! A radiant driveway or sidewalk heating system using HUG Hydronics is a labor-saving revelation. By installing sidewalk radiant heat, you keep paths clear and safe automatically. It is more cost-effective than hiring a plowing service and ensures your property is accessible all winter long.
