Yes you can. Are you using tiles or sheet goods. Seamed Sheet goods would be preferable.

Planning on using 12" VCT tiles. We were told by an installer that we shouldn't install VCT tile on top of a radiant heated floor, but are seeking more information.

I'd drop Armstrong an e-mail and ask them or do an online chat session with them.

I have had VCT on a heated concrete floor for almost 10 years with absolutely no problems. My garage is in a cold climate. You can see my garage and floor via the link at the bottom of this e-mail. Judge for yourself.
Drop me a PM with any questions or ask them here.

Dave,
Did you use Armstrong VCT tiles and do you know what kind of glue you used? I viewed your garage pics and you have a BEAUTIFUL garage and home. We are building a new home and I want to do the black and white pattern also and will have radiant heated floors also. Please feel free to call me at 316-788-5967 anytime or e-mail me at [email protected]. Thanks.

I honestly don't know why your installer would hesitate over VCT going down on a heated floor. Realistically the slab will be between 60-70 degrees for comfort heat. It'd be alot better than not having heat in the floor then dropping something on a cold day in the winter and watching a portion of a tile crack due to it being brittle. I installed hard surface floor covering for 14 yrs.
