STEP Warmfloor ® brings even, consistent, and energy-efficient heat to homes around the world.
When the global pandemic forced lockdowns and work-from-home mandates, it highlighted the demand for sustainability and improved indoor air quality in our homes. STEP Warmfloor underfloor radiant heating by STEP HEAT warms gently from under and can eradicate the need for forced air heaters, which can circulate dust particles and aggravate allergies. It also has the added benefit of environmental sustainability as it can be powered by renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind, boasting a 40-60 percent reduction in energy consumption, compared to other heating options for a cleaner, greener, and more cost-effective alternative to forced heat. The STEP Warmfloor line of self-regulating, electric, underfloor radiant heating is the “Future of Warmth,” and is not to be missed at Booth W4788 at the NAHB’s International Builders Show at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida from February 8-10, 2022. Don’t miss the chance to feel the warmth of STEP Warmfloor directly at their booth!
STEP Warmfloor heating systems are the most energy-efficient radiant floor heating solution available. The flat, flexible polymer heating element is made of a semi-conductive polyethylene, which distributes heat safely, evenly, and efficiently, and can be used for a variety of applications. It can be installed directly underneath all types of flooring including: natural stone, ceramic and porcelain tiles, hardwood and laminates, and carpet. Available for residential and commercial properties, STEP Warmfloor is comprised of radiant heating mats that can be used in new construction, remodeling, and retrofit applications, alike.
STEP Warmfloor is easy to install, and without failures during proper installation. Simply, cut the element to the appropriate length and connect the electrical components, before securing the panels to the sub-floor with approved adhesives. Best of all, there is no need to order customized mats to fit a project as elements can be easily cut to size at the build site. This innovative, radiant heating solution can be used as the primary home heating source or as complimentary heating.
“The underfloor radiant heating market was strengthened by the trend of many people working from home due to the pandemic and looking for a healthier, more comfortable, and even heat distribution,” said President of STEP HEAT, Monica Irgens. “Homeowners love the gentle, underfloor radiant heat provided by STEP HEAT. A new wave of millennial homebuyers are drawn to STEP Warmfloor because of its energy savings and eco-friendly features. We are proud to share our innovative self-regulating heating technology with the design and build professionals at the International Builders Show as we pave the way to a more sustainable building future.”
STEP Warmfloor is the future of heating, one of optimized energy efficiency, warmth, safety, and wellness.

About STEP HEAT
STEP HEAT is transforming the way we heat our homes, delivering healthy warmth for a consistently comfortable environment. Its radiant heating systems warm up a room by first heating cold objects within it. This avoids spreading allergens, which can happen with forced air systems that provide warmth by blowing heated air into rooms. Because STEP HEAT’s floor-installed heating elements are self-regulating, they decrease electrical power usage as ambient temperature increases, making them energy-efficient, without risk of overheating. STEP HEAT radiant heating systems are manufactured in Maryland Heights, Missouri, and the company is owned by Stephan and Monica Irgens. The Self-regulating Technology of Electro Plastics from which the company derives its name was first developed in 1981 as a method of heating automobile seats, but has since been adapted for application from heating homes and recreational vehicles to deicing roofs and ships. In 1994, Stephan and Monica introduced the United States to their radiant heating system through Electro Plastics, Inc. To date millions of square feet have been installed for various applications throughout the world. If it needs heating STEP HEAT has the solution.
