Radiantec Company, Inc.

DIY radiant heat is our specialty at Radiantec. Our radiant systems are highly efficient and many are compatible with solar thermal panels.

We are the original radiant heating company for the do it yourselfer! The story of how Radiantec Company began is typical of many small businesses – one man, an idea, and a little red garage. Radiantec was founded by Robert Starr in 1979 when he received a grant from the US Department of Energy to study one of his solar designs. As a requirement of that grant he had to form a business, and Radiant

ec was born (originally called Solar Option 1 Company). While Radiantec still offers solar hot water packages (www.radiantsolar.com), the radiant heating side of our business is our bread and butter. Radiantec Company is located in Northeastern VT. In this rural area, there is a longstanding tradition of Yankee ingenuity, simplicity, and common sense. You will find these values in everything that we do. Because our company is geared for do-it-yourself installation, we have a keep-it-simple philosophy. While we do manufacture our radiant systems to be as simple as possible to install, they are well engineered, well-constructed, and reliable because there are fewer components that will fail over time. This is a philosophy that has served us well in our over 30 years of doing business and is evidenced by our A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. Radiantec is an “energy efficiency” company, meaning that everything we do is geared towards offering the most efficient radiant heating system for the lowest possible price. Every component we quote keeps this philosophy in mind and every component is there to improve the efficiency of the radiant system. There may be additional components we could add to slightly increase the efficiency but not without adding a lot of cost and complexity. Our radiant heating systems are comprised of many different components that are taken off of the shelf, so to speak, and assembled by Radiantec. We are proud to say that the overwhelming majority of a Radiantec system is made in the USA or Canada. Our manifolds and assemblies are manufactured by our own hard working employees in our facility in Northern Vermont. We believe that “Made in the USA” label is more important today than ever before. Radiantec is the original radiant heating company for the do-it-yourselfer. All of our designs and radiant recommendations come from our over 30 years of experience in this industry and not from what we’ve read or copied from others. When you work with Radiantec, we treat each system as if it is going into the home of a friend or family member. It is important to us that every system we sell lives up to our A+ rating and more importantly, the expectations of our customers. We’ll do everything in our power to ensure your radiant heat installation will go as smoothly as possible, and if you get stuck along the way all you have to do is give us a call.

Here's an email from another satisfied Radiantec customer!

"Back in September of 2018 I requested a quote for a system to heat the concrete floor of a new 4 season room addition for my home. I subsequently purchased what you recommended. The mason installed the PEX in the floor and I did the rest. We are currently experiencing temps as low as -10F and system has never missed a beat. Also, you promised that domestic hot water would always take priority and that has proven true. Just wanted to say thanks for your efforts on my behalf. I am well satisfied.

Chris"

Here's a note from another satisfied Radiantec Customer!

"Jeremy,

Hope things have been going well for you. I wanted to reach out to thank you and to let you know that our new radiant system has been working flawlessly. At first I wasn’t sure that I could do something like this on my own and now when I look at the system on the wall, it makes me want to crack open a beer and pull up a chair and just stare at it. Just awesome!

I now have a good friend of mine that wants to look into a system. Can I just forward your contact info to him?

Thanks!
JD"

"Hey Jeremy,

I'm not sure if Radiantec has a review/comment/testimony place on it's web site, but I wanted to let you know how pleased I was with the in floor package that you sent to me. I've included a couple of pictures of the installation and currently have the system under 50 psi air pressure. My wife and I installed the in floor pex following the plan you sent. She and I installed the system over a two day period. It was simple and I think came out really nice."

You're not just buying products when you work with Radiantec. You get superior support before, during and FOREVER after the sale. Check out this email from another happy customer!

"I can't thank you guys enough for your continued technical support 6 years after purchasing the system. You could have just told me my thirty day warranty was over, and to go away. The whole system is working beautifully now, and we didn't realize how bad of problem had become. Our hot water pressure is about 4x stronger than before and floor heat makes for a happy wife. Happy wife, happy life.

Thanks!!"

Another happy email from a satisfied Radiantec customer!

"Ian,

I just wanted to again say thank you for all your patience, knowledge, and mainly assistance.

I looked at several companies while contemplating my DIY radiant heat. I decided after my initial contact with you to use Radiantec. I am so glad now that I did. My Polaris system is perfect. Why perfect because it is simple and efficient. I sure hope this letter will assist others who are looking at other options and are not sure which service to go with. I 100% recommend Radiantec and I have zero issues with the way you handled all my questions. You had answers for every one and you did so in a professional and useful manner.

Finally, to anyone considering using another company other than Radiantec...don't. I'm sure your experience with Radiantec will be similar to mine.

Many, many thanks,

Don S. "
