balancing radiant
It depends what you have for manifolds as to how to balance, if you have multiple loops in a room, but I found that once you "set to specs", run the system and use a thermal gun to check floor temp. If you installed the system or not, floor temp will always get it balanced and is the ultimate test for comfort and even distribution of heat.
We always have the customer do "the barefoot test" once the system comes on steady...they will tell you where the hot or cool spots are!
