I have never even thought to apply the wisdom that dense objects conduce heat better to the heating of homes.
What a clear and obvious insight. Can't believe I didn't connect the dots, thanks for doing it for me🤣
I think people dislike radiators because they can be a fire hazard and they provide more points of failure than a centralized radiator that heats the air. Floor heating is hard to argue with, but that also provides more points of failure. The fuel savings might be offset by maintenance costs.
But I've always liked the idea of each room having its own AC/heat. I like my room to be below 21⁰C (below 70F). Sometimes I want it to be really warm, but I don't want to increase the temperature of the whole house. It takes a long time for my room to warm up with its one vent that blows lukewarm.
