reverse return on joist heating?

Steve Lamprey

I AM DOING MY FIRST JOB WITH A REVERSE RETURN SYSTEM SUPPLYING WIRSBO PEX TUBING SUSPENDED IN THE JOIST BAY.
WIRSBO HAS NO INFO ON THIS TYPE OF SYSTEM. HAS ANYONE DONE THIS AND ARE THERE ANY PROS AND CONS?
THANKS STEVE

Reverse return

works well if you loops are within 10% of each other in length. Although, I have many manifolds that are direct return with no issues. Your manifold must be pumped correctly (GPM & pressure drop) to make either piping scheme work.

Warm Regards,
