Going easy on amount of time used per day, your use might be more or less. They say in floor heating is a nice heat. | |

If you wanted large areas you would probably be better served with a hot water based floor heat system. Also it doesn't need to get that close to walls or under cabinets so heated sqft will be less than the area of the room. | |
