LAN 787 exit row floor hot?

Just flew the 788 for the first time and sat in 26L (exit row in Y) flight was great, and loved the plane but noticed that the floor in this area was quite warm...Not uncomfortable but have never seen a warm floor on a plane except for EK's F showers. Is this normal? Some sort of floor heating like the old L-1011s had in some areas?

could be the air conditioner? i remember in a few trips (B777, B757) to feel a lot of heat coming up from the vents and maybe that was heating the floor.

I was looking for an appropriate emoticon to follow my remark - such as a "black humor" section complete with an airplane icon with a whispy smokey trail behind it.
