which won't lose their heat when you open the door.

Wouldn't it just be wonderful if that were true .............. you
radiate heat, the heat is conducted into the air, its the warm air that
you're shooting for so it'll warm you. Now if you want to lay on the
floor or lean against the sidewall or where ever you've got your plumbing
then you can warm those parts of your body that make contact.
The radiant plumbing thing would work great if you plumbed your
underwear, but then again the standard thermal underwear is simpler and
cheaper.
