Radiant Floor Heating for North Berwick Homeowners
Even Heat Distribution
Energy Efficient
Silent Operation
North Berwick sits in York County, part of the territory Aces Highlands covers out of 508 Riverside St Unit 1 in Portland every week — so a call for radiant floor heating gets a technician who already knows the local housing and codes, not a first-timer.
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.

North Berwick Homes and What They Need
North Berwick's median home was built in 1983, with about 24 percent of housing predating 1940, tracing back to the town's roots as a 19th-century mill village around Doughty Falls. That mix of old mill-village housing and later infill is typical of what we see on a service call here.
Heating and Cooling in North Berwick
Fuel oil heats about 58 percent of North Berwick households, the lowest share among the Berwick-area towns, with bottled or tank propane at 25 percent and wood at 8 percent; there is no natural gas utility in town. With propane this common, a tankless water heater on propane is a popular upgrade.
Getting to Know North Berwick
North Berwick incorporated on March 22, 1831 and grew up as a 19th-century mill town powered by Doughty Falls on the Great Works River, which ran a sawmill, gristmill and carding mill before rail shipping arrived in 1842. Hussey Seating Company, founded here in 1835, was recognized in 2003 as Maine's oldest family-owned business.
Pratt & Whitney also operates a manufacturing plant in North Berwick, described as the largest manufacturing floor under one roof anywhere in Maine at 875,000 square feet -- a striking contrast to the town's quiet mill-village roots.
Local & Independent — Not a Franchise
There is no franchise behind Aces Highlands — just a Portland-based crew that works North Berwick under its own name. Our technicians are not commissioned salespeople and nobody here is required to upsell you anything. We do the work you called us for, do it right, and earn the next call. That is the whole business model.
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.

Codes & Permits for Radiant Floor Heating in North Berwick
In North Berwick, plumbing permits come from the Local Plumbing Inspector at the North Berwick Code Enforcement Office (Matt LeConte, Code Enforcement Officer) (21 Main Street, North Berwick, ME 03906 (mailing: P.O. Box 422), (207) 676-3353 Opt. 2). With 5,129 residents, North Berwick is required to enforce the Maine Uniform Building and Energy Code (MUBEC). Large manufacturing facilities (Hussey Seating, Pratt & Whitney) mean some commercial-scale HVAC/electrical demand exists alongside the town's mostly residential/rural housing stock.
- The Maine Fuel Board's rules for oil-burning equipment incorporate NFPA 31, the national fire-safety standard covering installation, venting, and chimney-flue sizing for oil-fired appliances like boilers. maine.gov
- Chimneys and vents serving fuel-fired appliances, including hydronic boilers, are governed by NFPA 211, the standard for chimneys, fireplaces, and vents. maine.gov
- State law requires a carbon monoxide detector in each area within or giving access to a bedroom wherever a fuel-burning heating appliance like a boiler serves a covered dwelling. mainelegislature.org
How Aces Highlands Handles Radiant Floor Heating in North Berwick
- With 58% of North Berwick on heating oil, most radiant floor heating calls here follow NFPA 31 (oil), NFPA 54/58 (gas/propane) or NFPA 211 (venting), depending on what's already installed.
- Once a radiant floor heating is finished, we check that carbon monoxide detectors are actually present near the bedrooms — Maine law requires them in any home heated by fuel-burning equipment.

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.

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.

We have called Samuel for our electrical needs over the last few years and have always been impressed with professional and courteous attitude — installing extra outlets, installing new lights and ceiling fans, our whole house generator, charger for the electric car, even the hot tub!!! His price was fair, and never disappointed when work was completed.

I've had an excellent experience working with them for both electrical and HVAC work as I remodel my 1785 home. I highly recommend them.
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.
