Radiant Floor Heating for Berwick Homeowners
Even Heat Distribution
Energy Efficient
Silent Operation
When Berwick homeowners need radiant floor heating, Aces Highlands is the local team to call. We are based at 508 Riverside St Unit 1 in Portland — a short drive from Berwick in York County — so we respond quickly and know the homes, the weather, and the codes in your area.
Radiant floor heating delivers warm, even comfort from the ground up — no drafts, no noise, and no dust blowing through ducts. Aces Highlands installs hydronic radiant floor systems for new construction and renovations.
Hydronic radiant floor heating works by circulating warm water through PEX tubing installed beneath your floors. The heat radiates evenly across the floor surface, warming the room from the bottom up for consistent, draft-free comfort.
We install radiant systems in concrete slabs, under wood subfloors, and in staple-up configurations. Each system is designed with proper tube spacing, zone controls, and manifold sizing to ensure even heat distribution throughout your home. A new high-efficiency boiler is the ideal companion for a radiant floor system.
Radiant floor heating pairs perfectly with high-efficiency boilers and can also work with heat pump water heaters for an all-electric solution. We design each system based on your home, your floors, and your heating goals. Reach out for a consultation on radiant floor heating for your home.
Why Berwick Calls Aces Highlands
- We run trucks through Berwick and the rest of York County routinely, not occasionally
- Diagnostics come first, upsells do not — the invoice matches the quote
- Scheduling that moves quickly, because a home without heat or water cannot wait
- Fully licensed, fully insured; Google reviewers back up the work
Berwick Homes and What They Need
Berwick's median home was built in 1989, with 16 percent of the housing stock predating 1940 and 21 percent predating 1960 -- a newer profile than you might expect from one of Maine's oldest incorporated towns, since most of the historic core split off with South and North Berwick generations ago.
Heating and Cooling in Berwick
About 59 percent of Berwick households heat mainly with fuel oil, with bottled or tank propane at 17 percent and wood at 11 percent. Unlike neighboring North and South Berwick, Berwick itself has no piped natural gas service, which keeps heat pump pairings and propane conversions the more common upgrade paths here.
Getting to Know Berwick
Berwick was incorporated on June 9, 1713, the ninth town incorporated in what is now Maine, on land the Abenaki knew as Newichawannock, or 'river of many falls.' The town used to be much bigger: South Berwick split off in 1814, and North Berwick followed in 1831.
Diamond Hill, at 490 feet, is Berwick's highest point today -- a modest peak in a town whose real distinction is just how long it's been settled, older than the United States itself.
Local & Independent — Not a Franchise
We are an independent, Portland-based company, not a franchise chain routing your Berwick job to a call center. Our techs are paid to do the job right, not to upsell — no commission structure pushes them toward extra work. Earning the next call, not hitting a sales target, is the entire business plan.
How Radiant Floor Heat Works
- Boiler — heats water for the loop
- Manifold — splits and balances flow to each loop
- PEX tubing — embedded in the floor slab
- Radiant floor — warms the slab evenly
- Heat rises — gently warms the room above

Radiant Floor Heat: Installation, Manifolds & Troubleshooting
Radiant floor heat is one of the most comfortable systems we install, and one of the least understood — most homeowners have never seen the manifold that makes the whole thing work.

He was very friendly. He gave me an honest explanation on why I shouldn't recharge my A/C unit and what he suggested made much more sense. He really took care of everything. He is very professional, always called me with updates. 5 stars is not enough — I give this company 10 stars.

I've had three HVAC issues over the past two years. Each time I call, Elija or the office picks up the phone, and my problem is fixed in 24 hrs. Their solutions always feel correct and honest. I cannot recommend them more.

Elijah and Highlands Heating & AC were super helpful! Boiler failed over the weekend and Elijah was very responsive and helpful, getting us up and running right away. I would recommend him at HH&AC highly!

We highly recommend Highlands Heating & AC. They are extremely responsive, knowledgeable and do great work. Our boiler stopped working and Elijah was quick to respond after hours on a Friday. He installed a new boiler and heat pump hot water heater.

I can not recommend Sam and his team enough!! In a world of slow response times and cut corners they went above and beyond in every area, installing a new electrical panel for me. Their attention to detail and love of their craft truly sets them apart from the rest!

Where to begin? These guys hooked up a sauna for me and did an amazing job, it was not a small job. Projects big or small, these guys are my go to. Responsive, reasonably priced, and professional. In a world where it is tough to get good service, I'm thrilled to have these guys in my phone.
Radiant Floor Heating FAQs
Does radiant floor heating work under wood and tile floors?
Yes. Tile and stone are the best conductors and feel warmest; engineered wood and many hardwoods work well when water temperatures are designed for them; even carpet can work with the right pad. We design the tube layout and water temperature around your specific floor covering.
Can radiant floors heat my whole house?
Yes — with a properly done heat-loss calculation and design, hydronic radiant can be the sole heat source for a Maine home. In retrofits, many homeowners run radiant in key rooms and keep baseboard or a heat pump elsewhere, all off the same boiler with separate zones.
Is radiant floor heating efficient?
Very. Radiant runs low water temperatures that let condensing boilers operate at peak efficiency, distributes heat without duct losses, and keeps warmth at occupant level — so most homes feel comfortable at a lower thermostat setting than with forced air.
Can you add radiant heat to an existing room?
Often yes. If the subfloor is accessible from below (an unfinished basement under a kitchen, for example), staple-up radiant installs without disturbing the finished floor. Bathrooms and kitchens being remodeled are the other classic opportunity.
How long does a radiant floor system last?
The PEX tubing itself is typically rated for 50+ years — it generally outlives the boiler feeding it. The system has no moving parts in the floor; circulators and controls at the boiler are the only components that ever need service.
