I can't see the forest through all the

posts! What's up with all the posts under the I beam?

Have you considered two 50 gallon indirects instead of the 119. I priced a 119 yesterday and discovered I could install 2- 50 gallon tanks and save over $600!

Looks like you are embarking on a fun project. Keep the pics coming.

50 gallon tanks

My loyalty is to HTP so its 119 gallon tanks. The specs also call for Super Store.
I am not doing the plumbing, and yes all the drops are no hub for sound.

Will keep you posted with updates.
Installation of plates next phase. Trying to staple the plates up instead of screws.

I am having a problem with bay widths. Every other bay is 12" and next is 7 ". Thinking of cutting the plates to make them fit.

WHy in such a nice home would you be installing the radiant under the joists bays???????????

Tfin?

Rich,

The radiant engineering thermofin comes in single runs 4" wide, so you wouldn't need to cut those. Stapling up plates is indeed the way to go, fast and strong. I really like Dale's products.

Good Question....

Since the framing is beefed up, why not an overpour?? The cost of a stapleup with irregular joist bays is excessive and very labor intensive. Sometimes it's most difficult to control the design and application with the architect, builder and homeowner involved. These are larger industry-wide issues that influence the system design. Sometimes the floor coverings and finished floor heights are issues. I've often swayed the argument against overpour with the soundproofing and fireproofing advantages of the lightweight overpour, and reduced operating costs of running the system at lower water temps. Often the architect (or homeowner) is determined to using conventional hardwoods, instead of laminates or pre-engineered products. You have to know where and when to choose the "battles".

Super Stores

I am installing 2- 119 Super Stores 238 gallons then we are going to mix it down.Installing a couple of car washes for showers.
The over pour issue was not considered when the house was designed. Radiant wasn't an option then either. That's why we are using staple up. Really not my choice. Rather use quick trak. But you have to remember every job has a budget..
