I started doing some reading , pretty neat stuff. I pay 27 cents a kw/h so I worry about the running cost of one of them.

my manifolds have a little pressure gauge, or flow gauge of some sort that you adjust for each run to get them all to match

I started looking into that and it was over my head. I just kinda winged it and copied off of videos I watched that had a place that was similar to my place. I learned enough to get the tubing laid out to get them as close to the same length as possible and drew up a few plans until i had it...

What is the advantage of that heat pump so I can look into them? Im not aware of them.

That particular boiler is a combi boiler, which I wanted for domestic use also, if its feasible. I have room for a standard water heater, but why use one if I can get away with a combi boiler and call it a day. Im out of my element with this stuff which is why Im asking for suggestions. The...

I put a new link up that hopefully helps.

1/2" pex, roughly 290' apiece and 15 runs total , 2 zones in the garage and one in the house that are 5 runs apiece.

I have roughly 4350' of 1/2" tubing in the floor between the 3 zones.

Heres the back story, self built place. 80'x50' post frame building, 2500 of it is garage and 1500 of it is house, the place is tall enough for a second floor but for now its just a single floor.

I got my floor poured last fall and then filled it full of ****, wish i have done a coating before but it was in the fall and it was to cold to put a sealer on. Now i get the joy of moving everything around.

In the mid west when it comes to spray foam in the walls its an all or nothing type deal, 2" of closed cell and then fiberglass or rockwool over the top of it will cause condensation to form between the layers. 2" will work as a vapor barrier, but my thought is you already have the guy there...

I live on the east central side of iowa so same weather as you. In the spring when the ground is cold and the weather warms up its going to sweat regardless. If you have electricity in the building run a dehumidifier in there in the spring for a few weeks once temps stabilize to keep the...

I own a HM126 from woodland mills, i suggest looking into this company. https://woodlandmills.com/portable-sawmills Its almost a direct knock off of woodmizer but with a few quality of life addons that woodmizer charges for, and considerably less cost over all. Once you get a saw like that you...

if the fasteners are install correctly they will last an easy 20 years if not more, and then if they do its pretty simple to pull them out and put a new one right back in the same spot, and easy afternoon worth of work even for a very large roof
