does heat transfer through 3/4" Advantech subfloor the same as plywood when using staple up radiant system? Since Advantech flooring is not 100% wood will it retain the heat as well?

    It's the most common

    subflor used in nthis area. I'll bet the heat transfer is a tad better than regular plywood or OSB types. It seems so much denser, and heavier!

    I used Advantech in my infared research product, it sure is a nice flat smooth product for fastening transfer plates to.

    This is Watts Radiant Onix stapled below. Notice how well the metal staples transfer! Also the closest half has carpet, which helps spread the heat around better.
