Radiant heat in a concrete garage floor?
I am looking for information on installing pipe in a concrete floor for radiant heat. I am planning on using plastic coil pipe connected to a gas water heater with a circulator pump. Has anyone done this? What should I do or what shouldn't I do?
Any tips? Thank you.
Answer:
When considering radiant heat in a garage floor there are some issues that come up. Your garage should be well insulated with an insulated garage door. You should use foam board insulation under the concrete. Use the plastic type tubing, Use a boiler not a hot water heater and you can attach a side arm to the boiler to heat your domestic water. Also timers work well.
