Just had heat pumps installed. We have radiant heat typically. Going on snowbird trip (6 weeks to 3 months). We typically turn radiant heat to 65. What should we do with pumps. Turn off? Need info ASAP. TIA

Is it an air to air heat pump separate from the radiant or is it air to water?"If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough"

What climate are you in? A 2 stage heat thermostat to back up the primary heat source should have been installed. If there's an electric heat element in the heat pump you'll need a 3 stage heat thermostat. Depending on your region, neither radiant nor heat pump might be sufficient to maintain temp on a design day. I would get a good WiFi thermostat so you can monitor the temperature while your away.0
