The Foundation of Comfort: Radiant Heated Floors
No high-tech bathroom remodel would be complete without the latest in radiant heated floors. Radiant floors use thermal radiation technology to create an energy-efficient, luxurious warmth in your bathroom. And smart radiant flooring can also save time by allowing you to set schedules and control temperatures remotely, from your phone.
There are generally two types of radiant flooring for a bathroom remodel:
- Electric radiant heating
- Hydronic radiant heating
Deciding which is best for your remodel will depend on many things, such as the size of the bathroom, the complexity of the remodel, etc. Your designer will help you make the best decision based on your needs.
The Intelligent Shower Experience: Digital Control & Wellness
You may already have smart appliances throughout your home, so why not an intelligent shower? Digital showers offer a range of smart shower features:
- Remembering your water temperature preferences, water pressure, and spray patterns.
- Voice commands can be used to turn on or off the shower or adjust the flow.
- Conserve water and energy by using digital controls and smart eco-mode settings.
- Add LED light therapy or music for the ultimate in luxury.
With an intelligent shower, you can digitally control your settings as easily as using your smartphone. Not only will you be able to imagine you are at a luxurious spa, but you can also save money and conserve water at the same time.
Smart Fixtures & Features: Elevating Everyday Routines
With a high-tech bathroom remodel, you can include several other key features and devices to further enhance the look and feel of your new bathroom. Some of the favorites include the following:
