Lake Minnetonka Home, Minneapolis, MN

A fantastic Minneapolis home kept warm with Warmboard
This impressive lakeside home in Minneapolis, MN not only has gorgeous views of the lake, but also the comfort of radiant heat using Warmboard Radiant Subfloor.  The custom home has over 9,000 sq. ft. of living space on a beautiful expanse of property.

December through March brings average high temperatures of 21º F and average lows of 1º F here.  With the cold weather comes beautiful white snow and more than 10,000 lakes of ice to skate on.  Snowshoeing, cross-country and downhill skiing, snowmobiling, and hockey keep Minnesotans busy and warm throughout the winter.

Warmboard Radiant Floor Heating InstalledWarmboard radiant heat will be keeping this house warm and cozy throughout the extreme winter months.  Radical temperatures such as these make home heating systems and their energy efficiencies a very important decision when building a new house.  Radiant heat is the most comfortable method of heating as it gently and evenly warms the surfaces of objects in the room. Warmboard radiant floor heating has been optimized for maximum conductivity, which means maximum radiant heat delivered from each drop of heated water.

Warmboard radiant heating also contributes to healthy and clean indoor air quality, while providing superior comfort. Germs, dust, pollen and mold spores generally associated with forced air systems do not apply to Warmboard radiant floor heating. Additionally, the high conductivity of the panel leads to lower water temperatures, creating greater energy efficiency that ultimately benefits the environment.Yet another beautiful view from a Warmboard radiant heated home.

Lake Minnetonka (meaning “Big Waters” in the native Dakota language), is located twenty miles due West of Minneapolis/Saint Paul, Minnesota. Formed by glacial melting following the last Ice Age, Lake Minnetonka is one of the largest lakes in the state, boasting 110 miles of shoreline (officially). Other estimates have placed the figure closer to 350 miles, but any way you slice it, it’s a BIG lake.
