Edmonton, Alberta’s capital, is known for its deep winters, growing real estate market, and a rising interest in home upgrades that blend comfort with energy efficiency. Whether you’re planning a renovation or listing your home for sale, adding electric floor heating—especially in rooms like bathrooms—is a smart way to improve your space and boost resale appeal.
Edmonton Real Estate: Why Comfort Upgrades Matter
As of spring 2025, Edmonton has moved into a strong seller’s market. The average home price reached $460,685 in March, up 9.4% year-over-year, with detached homes averaging $574,872. Low inventory and high demand have pushed the sales-to-new-listings ratio to 66%, confirming the competitive landscape.
For homeowners looking to stand out in this market, comfort-focused upgrades like electric radiant heated floors add tangible value. They’re luxurious, practical, and increasingly expected in modern listings.
Why Radiant Floor Heating Works for Edmonton Homes
Edmonton winters last from November through March, often bringing weeks of subzero temperatures. Even well-insulated homes can feel cold—especially in rooms with tile, stone, or vinyl flooring.
Radiant floor heating solves that by delivering gentle, even warmth right where it’s needed. It’s especially effective in:
Plus, with no fans or ductwork, radiant heat runs silently and doesn’t circulate dust—making it a great option for allergy-sensitive households.
Real Project Example: Heating an Edmonton Bathroom
In one Edmonton home, an 80-square-foot bathroom was upgraded with a 1.5' x 21' TempZone™ Flex Roll. The cost of the heating element is $479.
When paired with a nJoy WiFi LED Touch Programmable Thermostat, the total cost came to approximately $728. That’s a small investment for everyday comfort, especially during Edmonton’s long winters.
How much does it cost to run electric floor heating?
Electric floor heating is surprisingly affordable to operate. In this Edmonton bathroom, heating the floor costs about $0.10 per day, based on estimates from the WarmlyYours Energy Use Calculator.
That estimate uses Edmonton’s current regulated electricity rate of 12.01¢ per kilowatt-hour, according to EPCOR (as of April 2025).
Here’s what that looks like in a typical year:
Coldest month: ~$9.46
Annual total: ~$51.60
The WarmlyYours Heat Loss Calculator also factors in elements like room insulation, sealing, and temperature preferences to help determine if radiant heat can serve as your room’s sole heat source. In many cases—like this bathroom—it absolutely can, which means no need for additional heating systems or extra bills. Just warm, efficient comfort all year round.
