Socks Not Required
A specialty of Klasinski Plumbing is the installation and maintenance of In-Floor Heating systems. In-Floor heating provides 5 important benefits:
Silence
The installation of most underfloor heating systems allows them to operate without making any sound. This silent running can help in making a building more relaxing and comfortable for the occupants, a benefit that most will appreciate.
Air Quality
Some home heating options (particularly in the case of forced-air systems) can have a negative impact on the air quality in a home by blowing dust, pollen and allergens around. This is not the case with in-floor systems, which have no moving air and therefore will not cause air-quality problems. This can make them a good choice for anyone that suffers from allergies.
Efficient Heat Distribution
Because the entire floor of a room becomes heated using an underfloor system, warmth is distributed more evenly around the entire room. This results in much less chance of cold spots developing, where the heat can spread out unevenly from a vent or radiator at only 1 or 2 points in a room.
Comfort
During the colder months of the year, the floors in a home can become cold especially in the case of hard-surface flooring. Using an underfloor system removes this inconvenience, increasing the comfort of a home. In-floor heating also helps to concentrate more warmth in the lower half of a room, rather than up at the ceiling, and this can help improve comfort for occupants.
Energy Efficiency
The Radiant Panel Association indicates that occupants of a building using radiant heating, such as in-floor systems, can feel comfortable at lower room air temperatures than would be required with other types of heating. This enables running an underfloor system at a lower thermostat setting, which in turn saves energy and reduces energy bills.

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Pancakes with Maple Syrup and B-O-O-O-O Halloween Event Round Up
Am I getting too much into Halloween or I have too much pumpkin at home. Well maybe both... he he....cos here I am with another pumpkin recipe. Actually it's another accident turned into a yummy breakfast. In my second previous post I made Cocoa Cake with Pumpkin Cream Cheese Frosting and I had the left over frosting and didn't know what to do with it. Today, as it's Sunday I promised Anush that I would make pancakes for him. So as I about to make these pancakes, I opened the fridge to get egg and instantly I thought I can use this frosting into the batter and didn't have to make any changes to the pancake recipe. Well here it is....it came out so soft and fluffy, yummy and loved the color.
Now that I decided that this would be my last recipe (for now) for Halloween.... so to sum up, I have a pictorial links to all my new and old Halloween recipes and also the round up for my event which ends today.
Last but not the least I thank all of the wonderful and great bloggers and cooks who participated in sending their Halloween goodies.
Have a safe and freaky HALLOWEEN ...... BOO!
Click HERE for the recipe
Method:
---------
1. In a mixing bowl mix all the ingredients except butter with a whisk or wooden spoon, just until mixed if there are small lumps, it's OK. Make sure you don't over mix the batter, because the pancakes will not be fluffy.
2. Heat a pan and when it's medium hot, add some butter and then ladle a spoon full of batter or a small scoop according to how big you want your pancake to be.
3. Cook one side for about 2-3 mins.
4. Flip to the other side and cook another 1-2 mins and serve it with the same cream cheese frosting or maple syrup or your choice of any syrup or jam or get creative. :)
