REFERING TO J SIEGENTHALERS ARTICAL APRIL 2004 PM MAGAZINE TITLED THE LONG WAY AROUND. DEALING WITH EXCESSIVLY LONG LOOPS. I CURRENTLY HAVE INSTALLED THIS TYPE OF SYSTEM, WHERE A HOME OWNER LAID THEIR OWN TUBING 1/2" HEPEX SERVING ONE ROOM 12" O.C. 1 1/2" GYPCRETE NO UNDER FLOOR INSULATION. IM ONLY TRYING TO CORRECT THIS ONE 650'LOOP, CURRENT RESULTS 20 DEG T AT FIRST START UP. HAS ANY ONE ELSE TRYED THIS METHOD? WHAT KIND OF RESULTS HAVE YOU SEEN? IM ALSO THINKING POSSIBLY SNOW MELT WITH THIS SYSTEM?
