We are currently renovating a bathroom that is in the middle of our house. It has no heat source. It used to get some heat from a steam riser, but that is now framed into the wall. We thought about putting in a heat/vent combo, but it won’t fit between the joists. Now we are considering radiant heat. It would cost $1250 and ordering and installing it would delay things by a few days. My question is, is it worth it? Will my bathroom be cold without it? Since I don’t plan to leave this house, maybe it is not that much money, but I have applied this logic to so many decisions that I am way over-budget already!
