Flush Out Radiant Heat System?

We built a new pole building 2 years ago. We have radiant heat in the concrete floors. There is an Hercules Cryo-Tek antifreeze solution in the lines. How often should we be flushing out the lines? Or don’t we?

Was the system flushed well before you added the glycol? If the system is leak free and no additional fluid has been added, should be no reason to flush out that expensive fluid. You can get a test kit to check the condition of the fluid, probably from Hercules.
Is the building left unoccupied that you need glycol?Bob "hot rod" Rohr

We wanted to have the ability to be able to leave in the winters. I’ll look into the test kit. Thanks.0
