Re: Radiant Floor Heat
Thanks Ken. 1 thing I wasnt clear on, I guess, the finished floors are not down. Only concrete in the basement, and then wood subfloors on 1st floor and 2nd floor.
I understand the idea behind a poured concrete mass on the first (and 2nd floor), but weight etc, I am not sure I can do that. I thought I've seen and heard about putting the tubbing attached to the underside of the wooden subfloor to heat the whole floor, and with insulation below the tubing in the joists, it would direct the heat back up to that floor as well.
But you all are saying the best way to do it, is a poured concrete layer with tubing in it, on the 1st floor?
