I am in the process of finishing a basement and am considering not only running duct extensions, but also adding in-floor heating with electrical mats.
Does anyone have an opinion regarding forced air heat + in-floor heat VS forced air &/or electric baseboard heat?
I don't know how long it takes for the floor to heat-up using in-floor heat, or if it can be run (obviously in thin-set) under carpet squares.
The baseboard heat concerns me. Eventhough I have a sump pump with back up, what if the basement takes on water and I have baseboard heat?
Thanks in advance for opinions.
