Heated Floor
I decided on ThermoSoft resistance heat pads, one in front of the toilet and sink, and one in the shower. They needed to be buried in the floor, so I raised the floor around the pads using 3/4" plywood. Total cost of pads, thermostat and sensors: about $600.

With the plywood in place, I could start covering up the pads.

For the shower floor, I first needed to float the right slope, while leaving enough margin to cover the heating pad.

I initially installed the thermostat too close to the shower. The village inspector pointed out during the rough inspecction that it wouldn't have passed electrical inspection, so I had to move it.

This is a better location, where the jacuzzi's pump timer was. Now I know why they put it way over there!
