great idea to put the radiant floor in the sand, very unusual...is the radiant floor in the cement as well ? because the sand wants to move are you sure it wont sink or move with time and crack the cement floor on top? what was the total depth of sand and the cement floor ? #
@JasonYouTube7 күн бұрын
Only tubes in the sand , and sand is the most stable foundation to put concrete on. The cement is about 4-5 inches and the tubes are about 10-12 inches under cement top. So basically sand and cement have close to same heat transfer rate, but sand is cheaper per yard then concrete. Thanks for watching

This is something I couldn't wrap my head around, insulation under the slab. Heat rises, right? It only makes sense that it would go up into the building and not out into the ground.
@JasonYouTube3 ай бұрын
The ground does sap the heat but only to an extent. You would need perimeter side insulation or else the sides would drain the heat from slab and it wouldn't heat. So basically create a chimney and the ground with tubing is the fire. You do need more tubing with the insulation to properly heat the ground to make it work. Thanks for watching

So you want me to be stranded on the side of the road with a flat tire so you don't have to use a $100 pressure washer and 5 minutes to clean it up? Gee, let me think, stranded on the side of the road for hours or a small inconvenience to a tire shop? Okay I'm going with the slime. Guess what? I bought my own tire machine because I got tired of shops complaining, charging, putting tires on wrong and damaging rims. Yes, that's right, I would rather spend $2k so I can change my own tires.
@JasonYouTube6 ай бұрын
Ya you can do that but most people only buy 16 tires in their whole life! So wouldn't make sense to buy a machine because each tire would be over $120 extra to pay off that machine . So now you need to buy a balancer also , so looking at about 5k for both machines. Usually shops charge about $30 per tire to change and balance , so someone can do over 170 tires and still not pay off the machines.
@stickman-16 ай бұрын
@@JasonKZbin Well I do have 13 vehicles and we buy tires for at least 2 of them per year. We also have summer tires and winter tires for at least 2 vehicles. As for balancing, we are using the balancing beads. So far so good. Shops around here charge $40 for mounting/balancing plus $5/tire for the city. If I do it myself I'm allowed to take my old tires to the dump for free. Also, and this is the major reason, I'm sick of people not doing a good job. Most of my tires are directional and I've had shops put them on backwards only to have to go back and get it corrected. That was the last straw for me.

Watched this when you first posted . Im up in Northern Minnesota. Hows the system holding up after 2 years ? When you did you layout under the sand . What size pex did you use and tube spacing ? Im seriously looking at doing your system . With it being under the sand do you still need to run it at 120° or can you run it hotter ?
@JasonYouTube7 ай бұрын
Its been almost 4 years and about 2 years ago had a pinhole leak in 1 line. It doesn't leak , only under pressure so I closed that line off on manifold. It might of been a manufacturer defect as it holds liquid when not pressurized. But even with that line down, it still heats the same and uses same therms . The pex size is 1/2" and runs are about 290-298 feet. Spacing is anywhere between 6" - 8" depending on area. Along walls and garage doors, used tighter spacing to compensate for heat loss . I run it usually at 120 , but if its warmer ( 32-38 degrees) then I can turn it down to 110 as sometimes it overshoots the temperature by 2 degrees. You don't want big temperature swings as that uses more energy to stabilize temperature. when its under -10 degrees , I will boost it up to 130 . Raise or lower temp when its like a week of temperature extremes. Also changing temp exercises hot water heater , allowing different gas flow. Not really needed but I do it once in awhile to just mix things up. That tankless heater temp of 120 , you are only putting in between 80 -100 degrees into the floor pex , depending on how much tubing you have and the main panel setup. I have never seen 120 degrees go to the floor pex . Thanks for watching the videos
