Popular Mechanics wet heat article

Jan 2005 Popular Mechanics gives some interesting opinions on radiant heat. I always wonder who the editors talk to. They give new system WA install cost 2000sqft house as 5 to 8K$ and "professionally installed" hydronic floor system as 10 to 14K$. They do say you can save 2K$ by putting the tubing in yourself, they show a staple up with edpm rubber although they also mention Watts Radiant pex. The heating controls as panels is also interesting. No boilers shown. No wonder the average HO is confused.

Sounds like the editors surfed the net.
