SMART Builders, Inc. installs Viega Radiant Floor Heating. 

One of the many decisions to be made when planning and designing your new custom home is how you will heat and cool the home.  Many times, a radiant floor heating system is used in a bathroom, basement, or garage; however, radiant floor heating systems can be used to supply heat throughout your home.  SMART Builders, Inc. is installing the Viega Climate Panel System in a new custom home build in the western suburb of Glen Ellyn.

The Viega product is well known as the industry leader and is the only manufacturer that offers a patented climate panel system.  The Viega Climate Panel System is the only system suitable to be used with any floor covering including hardwood, tile, engineered flooring products, and carpet.  This radiant panel system is designed to be attached above the subfloor and offers homeowners flexibility in their home design by eliminating the need for ductwork or floor vents.  Another benefit to the homeowner is that it provides more efficient heat and uses less energy than traditional forced-air heating systems, eliminating the circulation of dust and allergens, and reducing energy costs 10-30%. 

SMART Builders, Inc. specializes in delivering custom homes with quality and attention to detail that is unparalleled. Please contact us for a personal consultation to discuss your project.
