Tile is an insulator. If the tile is placed correctly over an existing wood floor and is sealed with grout, it will insulate the room it is in.

Why do bare feet feel cooler on a tile floor than in a wooden floor?
GREAT physics experiment! Wood is an insulator in part because it is less dense, so once your foot feels the cool, it is being insulated from losing more heat. The Tile is dense and acts as a "HEAT SINK" it literally draws the heat out of the foot and stores it in the tile.

Why does room-temperature tile feel cooler to the bare feet than a wooden floor at the same temperature?
Tile moves heat faster than wood. Wood is more of an insulator than tile. The feeling felt has do to with the speed at which heat is removed by tile.
