    Watts Onix Tubing

    We are installing Watts Onix tubing for the first time in a concrete slab. What should we use to attach to the insulation below the slab. The pipe is 1 1/8" OD

    Watts Onix Tubing

    From what the GC has informed us is that the tubing will be below the wire mesh and the mesh will float when they pour the concrete. I am thinking of stapling it to the insulation below. Do they make a staple to fit over the tubing? or should I tie it to the mesh and let it float?

    Thanks,

    Ron

    Check out the Crete-Heat product

    I used it on habitat job recently with some Onix. Simply walk it into the posts.

    I also use it on a job with some Viega Fosta pex. Quick, clean,excellent r value and vapor barrier.
