I'm planning a new house build, I plan to have an L-shaped garage with one section 24x22 and the other section 26x40. I'll have a tuck-under garage (garage under a garage) under the 26x40 section.
I'd like to at least put pex in the floor so I have the option of heating the upper garage in the future. I know the normal process is 6mil vapor barrier on the dirt, then 2" of rigid foam board, then pex on that. Do I do the same thing on top of the under-garage? Would I need to put a vapor barrier down on top of the pre-cast? I'm assuming I'd want 2" rigid foam board so I'm not heating the ceiling of my under garage, correct?
For anyone not familiar with a tuck-under, here is how they do it. -->
