My shop is a 12x16 shed built on 2x6 joists on top of five 4x4 pressure treated skids. The walls and ceiling are very well insulated but the floor is not insulated at all. The floor four inches above ground on the skids so the cold air during the winter flows under the shop keeping the floor ice cold.
I have both Raynauds and neuropathy in my feet. My feet always feel as if they are in a bucket of ice with lots of painful tingling, during the winter when I'm standing on cold ground (either outside or in the shop) my feet feel much worse.
Is there an effective way to keep the shop floor warmer? I can't get under it to insulate it. I can block the ends to limit the wind blowing cold air under the building but its still cold air in there. The floor is 3/4" boards with sheet vinyl on top. When I keep my heater on in the shop during the winter, 24/7, the temperature in the shop is 70 but the floor is always around 45. I was thinking about a heated mat at my work bench but just wondering if there are other ideas. Any radiant floor heating that would work right on top of wood boards and won't catch wood shavings on fire?
