Radiant Heal install

[leiterch]

Wondering if I could get a bit of help.

Here is my install.

30'x48'x12' Pole barn
2" foam
6" zone 1/2" pex tubing
6-zone manifold

I have the pex run, the concrete poured and the manifold purchased.

I am going to be using my outdoor wood boiler for heat.

Here is my current plan:
- Run insulated pipe from my boiler to the pole barn (the boiler has separate pumps for the house and the barn? aprox - 120'
- Run the pipe from the boiler to a water to water exchanger. size?

This is where i am stuck. I know that i need a few things, but I am not completely sure.

I assume that I need a pump and a thermostat to control the pump when the barn needs heat, but I am not sure if I need anything else or what size pump I would need.

Any help you guys could give me would be great.

You can do a "search".....top area of the page.....for 'radiant floor heat'. Lots of info and pictures. Good luck.
