Concrete Slab Pour with Radiant Floor
The 2008 Season of “This Old House” in Weston, Massachusetts premiers the use of Crete-Heat Radiant Floor Panel Systems in the basement of a pre-fab home. The crew of TOH installs the panels and tubing in time for the arrival of the concrete trucks. With temperatures soaring over 100 degrees it was imperative that it was installed accurately and quickly so the concrete could be poured when the trucks arrived. Thanks to the labor savings of the Crete-Heat panels it was accomplished ahead of schedule. When you require radiant installation to be simplified, look no further than Crete-Heat Insulated Floor Panel Systems. Check us out at www.crete-heat.com or call (920) 948-3738

The Crete-Heat Insulated Floor Panel System is an easily assembled modular board insulation, vapor barrier, and radiant tube holding grid. It allows for simplified installation of hydronic radiant floor heating systems in basements, garages, main floor slab on grade and above grade installations where concrete or gypcrete is normally used. Each interlocking panel, available in either 1 inch or 2 inch thicknesses of Expanded Polystyrene, covers up to 8 square feet with fasteners for 1/2″, 5/8″, 3/4″ and 7/8″ radiant tubing. A 10-mil High Impact Polystyrene film thermoformed on to the EPS Foam provides the vapor barrier. Visit www.crete-heat.com for further information. Proudly made in the USA. *****ADDITIONAL NOTES REGARDING VIDEO***** Laying of the panels showing the ship-lap interlock backwards was due to a last minute request to videotape. Some of the panels were taken up to begin videotaping that segment again and the panels were from the end of the building where the last panels were installed,resulting in what showed the ship-lap being backwards.Proper install is with the male half of the ship-lap facing upwards and the female portion connecting into it as the panels are installed. First time users loved this product. The project called for 2″ of insulation but the Crete-Heat Panels, which were donated for this job, were only available at the time in 1″, so the other 1″ insulation was used underneath to obtain the 2″ overall thickness.

www.concretenetwork.com Concrete floors no longer have to be too cold to walk on with your bare feet! That’s just one benefit to Radiant Floor Heating. This heating system can save energy too, because heat is distributed evenly which can allow the thermostat to be set two to four degrees less than a forced air heating system.
