Radiant heating design for Oro-Medonte & Springwater.

Custom homes, walkout basements, shops and garages on bigger lots, heated from the floor up and sized room by room. We’re based next door in Barrie, and we design and install radiant and hydronic systems across both townships.

What we do in the townships

Radiant heating in Oro-Medonte & Springwater

From Horseshoe Valley, Shanty Bay and Hawkestone to Midhurst, Elmvale and Minesing.

Radiant heating design

Room-by-room heat-loss calculations to the CSA F280-12 methodology, loop layouts, manifold schedules and water temperatures, for our own installs or as a design-only package for your builder or installer.

Whole-home radiant floors

New builds and major renovations, designed from the slab up, with every loop pressure-tested before and during the pour.

Shops & garages

Garage and workshop heat, on its own zone and its own schedule, designed alongside the house.

Boilers & mechanical rooms

Condensing boilers sized from a real heat-loss calculation, never a guess, with outdoor reset and clean, serviceable piping.

Snow-melt driveways & walkways

Glycol loops under concrete or pavers that clear snow and ice automatically.

Towel warmers & extras

Heated towel bars and hydronic baseboards, all run from the same warm-water system as your floors. How hydronic systems work

Built for the townships

What radiant looks like out here

More room to build means more to heat: bigger slabs, bigger shops and often a heat source to choose.

Custom builds

Designed from the slab up

Most radiant goes in during construction. Bring us in at the drawing stage and the heat-loss calculation, loop layout and manifold schedule go into your designer’s permit set, and the loops are pressure-tested before and during the pour.

Shops & outbuildings

Heat the shop, not just the house

Garage and workshop heat can be designed into the same warm-water system as the house, on its own zone. Where a building sits further out, the design decides whether it runs off the house system or its own heat source.

Any heat source

Choose the heat source in the design

Hydronic radiant doesn’t care what heats the water. The heat source is chosen and sized in the design, and radiant’s low water temperatures suit condensing boilers and air-to-water heat pumps alike.

How it works

From first visit to warm floors

  1. Step one

    Your plans, or a site walk

    We come out to Oro-Medonte or Springwater to walk your home, or start from your drawings: a new build, an addition, a finished basement or a single bathroom.

  2. Step two

    Heat loss & design

    A room-by-room heat-loss calculation to the CSA F280-12 methodology, then the loop layout, manifold schedule and water temperatures your space actually needs. How our designs work

  3. Step three

    Rough-in & testing

    Insulation down, loops laid exactly to the design, and every loop pressure-tested before and during the pour.

  4. Step four

    Commissioned & documented

    Every zone commissioned and balanced, the paperwork in your file, and a walkthrough of how it all works before we leave.

Local questions, answered

Radiant heating questions from the townships

Which communities do you cover?

All of Oro-Medonte and Springwater, including Horseshoe Valley, Shanty Bay, Hawkestone, Midhurst, Elmvale and Minesing. We’re based in Barrie, right next door.

Can you design radiant for a new build we’re drawing now?

Yes, and that’s the best time. We produce the heat-loss report, loop layout, manifold schedule and water temperature schedule, and coordinate with your BCIN-registered designer so the permit set goes together without back-and-forth. More on our designs.

Can a detached garage or shop be heated with radiant?

Yes. Radiant in a shop or garage slab heats the floor itself, right where you work. Depending on distance and layout, the design decides whether it runs off the house system on its own zone or gets its own heat source.

Will radiant work with a heat pump?

Yes. Radiant’s low water temperatures are exactly what air-to-water heat pumps produce most efficiently, which makes radiant floors one of the most future-proof heat distribution systems you can put in a home.
