Like most wood-look flooring, Coretec hardwood should warm up gradually rather than sharply, which is why we recommend a moderate, steady surface temperature.

No — our heated floor systems work with a standard floor-sensing thermostat, so you can set and maintain a comfortable, consistent temperature under your Coretec hardwood floor.
