Default Plumbers Heat Guys

Due to an extra workload at work and a bum knee I am stalling on my family room remodel project. I am now looking for a faster cheaper way to get more heat in my family room (remodel) I was made aware of "high output baseboards"? Previously I was going to go with radiant heat thru the floor from down below. This room doesnt have enough running feet of standard baseboard and I am thinking this product may be a quick easy fix. I did a quick search and didn't find much. Has anyone had experience with these to use to retrofit an existing system?

Look into panel radiators instead of baseboard. Much nicer heat as it's a blend of pure radiant along with convective type heat like baseboard. I install a lot of them and they take up much less wall space per btu output than BB. Check them out at www.hydronicalternatives.com
