Radiant Floor Heating - Q's on an existing system...

[bodean123]

We are looking at purchasing a new home, it consists on a 2800sqft shop with 1000sqft attached residential. The entire slab is heated with radiant floor heating. I have zero knowledge with it and was wondering if anyone with more experience could take a look at some photos and tell me if it appears to be done properly. We do plan to have a home inspection done, but from past experience they generally just check to make sure everything is in working order.

Damnnnnnnn. That’s a serious system. Two manifolds? Lots of zones

Everything looks good. Piping is correct zones piped reverse return first in last out. Thermometers in and out of the loops ( see how close they are to each other with system off). Didn't see a pressure gage should read around 10 lbs. Also want to sample the water see if there is glycol in system and the condition of it. Radiate systems run 5-10* above room temps max 85*. Cold system startup might take 3-4 hours before you start to feel it. Best heat ever.
