Hydronic Heating

Posts Tagged ‘floor heating system’

We just installed a radiant floor heating system and our plumber tells us that a regular thermostat is in fact more efficient than a programmable one, because it doesn’t have to use a lot of energy to get the water hot again. We installed a high efficient munchkin boiler. Thoughts?

We have a hydronic in-floor heating system in a slab subfloor that has an engineered wood floor glued on top without a seperating membrane in between. We like to change now to a tile floor. Trying to take the wood floor up we noticed this to be very piece meal like. That glue does not come off easy and I like to find out if anybody has any knowledge in this. Can I leave the wood floor in and install tile over it or do I lose too much heat? Any suggestions on how to remove the wood floor and glue? What probelms with either way?

How do you flush the radiant floor heating system?

I have a 17 years old house 6000 sq ft, with six zone radiant heating. the room farthest away, my daughter's bedroom remains cold, and I was told that I need to flush it.

Thanks.
