I also have radiant floor heating with a gas furnace. This is the thermostat you want. There is a click, and it is audible in the room where it is located but not alarmingly so.

I have gas furnace heating baseboard radiators and it works fine. Absolutely no noise.

This will work with any heat only application, so should be fine as long as the electric is setup for single in-line power. Keep in mind the thermostat is battery powered, so you'll need to keep that replaced. I have this in our camper and it's about 3 feet from me. I can't say that I hear the on/off solenoid. So, however loud it is, it's not enough to wake me up.

As long as your system takes a mili-amp Thermostat it should work. As for quiet I don't even know when goes on or off. Mine is in in the living room, it might be heard if it was a night in a bedroom but there's no discernible sound

When the thermostat goes on and off there is a very slight clicking sound...hardly audible...

There is a switch on the side that has low, med, and high settings. As far as being able to hook up a thermostat that is a little out of my area of expertise, but I assume with the proper knowledge you should be able to. I assume mine is wired that way right now. Thermostat calls for heat, boiler comes on, once the boiler reaches a set temp the pump comes on. Once the boiler reaches a high set temp the boiler shuts down but the pump continues until a low set temp is reached. Guesses only.

I don't know the decibels, but not that loud. No louder than a forced air heating system, as with an oil furnace. Takes up very little space and is safe; whereas, a quiet radiant heater with no fan is large and gets very hot, so you must keep away from other items in the room.

shouldn't need a relay. however with the floor heating first question is it under tile or carpet with this type generally you best use with a controller that has a probe in the floor material so that it doesn't get too hot to touch. this controller is very accurate at controlling room ambient temp and silent.

Yes there is a click sound. I use this heater in my bath before and during my early morning shower. It suits my purpose perfectly.

I think this can replace your thermostat. You didn't say if the system was electric or gas (hot water) heating but the heavy current is probably being handled by a system relay. You can download the manual and installation document from Honeywell for additional information, and/or check with a heating contractor to be sure.

When you flip the actual on/off switch, it will click. Moving the heat settings will not make a clicking noise.

Hi Patricia,We use it in our 200 sqft living room and it works really well. The ocilation feature allows you to get more area heated than a normal space heater. However, it does make a fan-like noise when it's running. It's not obnoxiously loud, just a low hum that really ends up being white-noise, and not something we find annoying. Hope that helps a bit!

never heard it, the unit i do hear when it turns off and on, but it is definately not the thermostat,,,had a honewell before and never heard it either,,i dont think any digital would make a sound

No problem. Just do not allow the water to boil off completely. I use a programable thermostat to shut the heater off or hold at a desired temperature.

This heater is silent except for the click of the thermostat. That's just the nature of how a thermostat works. Because I am also very sensitive to that clicking sound while I sleep, I bought a Lux WIN100 programmable thermostat which plugs into an electrical outlet and the heater plugs into the Lux WIN100. The thermostat on the Bionaire is set to the maximum heat level and the Lux WIN100 switches the power on and off electronically without any "clicking" at all. Just set the temperature on the Lux WIN100, and you're set to go.

The Robertshaw thermostat I have is digital, and is very quiet. In fact, the only sound I hear is the fan in my electric furnace turning on and off. Hope you enjoy yours.

The data tracking on the Ecobee is what attracted me to it. It has helped me get the best setup I could for energy savings. The main relay unit goes by your furnace, so you have no relay noise on the wall where the thermostat is. Take a look at their website and you can see all of the tracking abilities of the unit. I took back a Honeywell unit for the Ecobee. I was never interested in the Nest, as there are lots of reviews stating that it has issues holding constant temperatures.

it's not too loud. normal loud like other heater. iif you keep low settle it's good.. high sett like other heater. but keep it's in mind it's good for up to 150 sqft. room. large room not good.<niraj

When you install it you also install a thermostat that has a sensor that goes under the tiles with the heater. You set the desired temperature and it will shut off when the temp is reached. I like the Honeywell with the timer so that it automatically comes on off when I want it to.

Nope, mine has never made a clicking sound. So far so good with the appliance, but I sure don't think it heats water any faster than the stove does. I'd not buy it again.
