    mono flow

    Mono flow systems don't like to push HOT water down unless you have a good sized pump on the supply side.  IF these rads are going to be in the basement. You could mount these horizontal at the ceiling.

    monoflow question

    thanks steve,i read in dans book pumping away that if using a monoflow system and the rads are below the piping you should use two monoflow tees.i just like the idea of the manifold as i can feed each rad individually and running the pex will be better as there is not much space.
