Limited budget – Consider a warm room

If you have a limited budget and can’t consider applying ThermaCote everywhere initially inside your property, consider creating one particularly warm room using ThermaCote by strategically applying the product to maximize its insulating and heat-reflective properties. Here’s a step-by-step guide to achieve this:

1. Choose the Room: Determine which room you want to be your ‘warm room’.
2. Prepare the Surface: Before we apply ThermaCote, we must ensure that all surfaces where ThermaCote will be applied are clean, dry, and free from any debris or contaminants. Any damage to the walls, ceilings, or floors must be repaired. Proper surface preparation is crucial for optimal adhesion and effectiveness of ThermaCote.
3. Apply ThermaCote to Walls and Ceiling: We’ll apply ThermaCote as a base coat to the walls and ceiling. This thermal barrier coating reflects heat back into the room, reducing heat loss and truly enhancing the room’s warmth. You can leave ThermaCote as your finished surface or paint with any breathable paint to meet your desired pallet.
4. Insulate the Floor: If your floor is not insulated, you can add insulation to the floor, or you can spray it with ThermaCote. Floor insulation helps in retaining heat within the room.
5. Seal Windows and Doors: To maintain warmth, ensure that windows and doors are properly sealed. Install weather stripping or seals to prevent drafts and heat loss. Consider using thermal curtains or blinds to further enhance insulation.
6. Optimize Heating Sources: If the room has a heater or radiator, ensure it is in good working condition and positioned effectively to distribute heat evenly. ThermaCote applied behind radiators reflects the heat back into the room.
7. Monitor and Adjust: After applying ThermaCote and making other improvements, monitor the room’s temperature and comfort level. You will find that you can adjust your heating, save money, and have the comfort of a warm room.
8. Expand your Coverage: You can always expand your coverage of ThermaCote to other rooms later and enjoy the same comforts there as your ‘warm room’.
