Does heat loss software for radiant differ in that you need less btu/hr because of the mass that is transmitting the heat to the space/people?

You've actually got a safety factor built in doing that, if you're doing reset water temps/consistent circulation. Not a huge one, but this is a decent band-aid method until software catches up.0
