Polished Concrete Floors are colder than the surface in Antarctica (Myth)

Contemporary living room. White and grey walls, polished and varnished white concrete flooring. Floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows.

To be honest this is one of the biggest myths associated with concrete floors. The fact is that they have thermal qualities that make them effective for heating and cooling. The thermal mass of concrete floors means they will absorb heat during the day through sun exposure and then release it at night when the temperatures drop.
