What drives the price
- Electric or hydronic. Electric mats are simpler. Hydronic systems need a boiler.
- Full or tire tracks. Heating only the wheel paths costs much less.
- New driveway. Heat goes in when the driveway is poured, so the paving is part of the cost.
- Running cost. Today's Homeowner notes hydronic running costs are low once installed, with a yearly boiler check.
