Add You - Basement Floor Heating: Q&A
Transfer taxes are excise taxes which are imposed when property is transferred to another person. The transfer can be during life (a gift) or on death (a bequest). The transfer taxes that most of us are familiar with are the gift tax and the estate tax.The gift tax is imposed each calendar year on the transfer of property by gift made during that calendar year. There are exclusions from gift tax in the amount equal to $12k per person per calendar year. The marital deduction excludes an unlimited amount to your spouse. Any outr

What if we could build miniature insect size micro-mechanical devices, which could mimic the flight characteristics of insects and fly around just like they could? Is it possible to copy, or even better some 400 million years of evolution in order to built the ultimate spy weapon? Literally becoming a fly on the wall? Well there are some scientists and researchers working on this now.In fact although the little micro-sized MAVs or micro-air vehicles are still about double the size of a hummingbird, these Universities and research c
A few questions about such a system:
1. Cost analysis of home heating using hot water forced hot air vs. Heating with a gas fired unit (a high efficiency unit)
Hot water heating - boilerA gas or oil-fired system, whether it be forced air, or hot water, or hot water forced-air, would be more expensive to install but less expensive to operate than an electric system, at this time. An actual cost analysis would be dependant on the design of the house, and which delivery method you use in which parts of the house. Also, the potential need for air-conditioning and/or dehumidification raises another variable. But basically speaking, gas and oil are cheaper than electricity, and hydronic/radiant floor heat is in most cases, more efficient than forced-air. You might want to provide some air circulation for a healthy, comfortable environment. But if this is for the basement area only - you couldn't do better than to heat the floor!
2. The availability of zone heating control in the basement area and whether this is necessary or just an excellent feature?
Again, somewhat dependant on design - and installation costs versus projected fuel savings, should be considered. Many over-designed systems are not recouping their initial cost in the form energy savings. A lot of them just aren't that much better than more conventional types. The Ontario Ministry of Energy, Natural Resources Canada, and CMHC are some of the better sources of information. CMHC publishes catalogues of free and priced publications on home heating.

If you've never heard of VoIP before reading this article, you're in for a treat. VoIP has literally revolutionized the way many of us make and take calls, especially long distance calls. Voice over Internet Protocol, known as VoIP for short, is the simple process of taking analog audio signals and converting them to digital signals. These digital signals can be easily sent over the Internet.What does this mean for you? If you're already paying for your Internet service, you'll be able to take advantage of this technology to make f

Prospects may choose to not join your MLM business for various reasons. In my years as an MLM success coach, I've trained thousands of people to avoid this one costly mistake that will most certainly drive people away from your business opportunity and your products.Of all the MLM training I cover, this topic is the most controversial of any subject I discuss. But as you will learn, it could be the VERY reason your prospect doesn't sign up with you...or that if you DO sponsor them - you can't seem to get or keep them focused on th

There are many reasons why it’s a good idea to save energy in the home these days. To begin with, prices of gas and electricity in Europe have been very high in recent times, and so you can save a lot of money by making your home more efficient. As well as saving money, we all need to do our bit to help fight climate change by reducing the amount of energy we use. Finally, some of the things you can do to save energy in your home, such as installing insulation, can make your home warmer and more comfortable in winter.The U.K. gover

In-floor hot water heating5. It would appear to be a closed system of operation but my concern would be for water deteriorating the workings of the heat exchanger as one does not appear to be able to control the alkalinity or PH of the water.
Everything can be controlled, for a price! Water conditioning is an extra installation cost to be weighed, although non-metalic tubing is used now for hydronic distribution, and boilers have come a long way since Grandpa stoked the big one in the cellar!
6. If one is installed, and later decides that due to mechanical failure after waranty, only uses the gas hot water for forced air heating for the upper portion of the house, do economics still point to having one installed in the first place or go with the gas fired furnace and live without having a heated concrete basement floor?

Not that I'm aware of, at least not with modern, standard systems.
Gil, I hope I haven't burdened you with too much but the more info we have on these systems the better we will be able to make a "dollar and sense" decision. Thanks for any ideas you might have.
R.P.
I would have liked to be more specific, but there are so many type, style, cost, and efficiency issues involved, we'd be on here for weeks! I think the best place to start is with the CMHC catalogue of publications. Get as much material/data as you can on the subject, and discuss some of the alternatives with some installers. I think cost of installation vs. lifespan vs. running efficiency are going to be your three main
