Frequently Asked Questions

Who should install Ecowarm® Radiantboard®?

Ecowarm® Radiantboard® is typically installed by the general contractor, but can be installed by homeowners with proper tools and basic carpentry skills. A licensed radiant floor heating mechanical or plumbing contractor should install the heat source, distribution piping, pumps, controls, etc. Follow all local and state codes for permitting and installation.

How do I buy Ecowarm® Radiantboard®?

Can Ecowarm® Radiantboard® heat all types of rooms?

Yes, but there are conditions where high resistance carpet and pad is installed in a great room with a lot of glass in a very cold climate. Under those rare conditions, the designer will recommend supplemental heat of some sort.

When is Ecowarm® Radiantboard® installed?

Ecowarm® Radiantboard® is typically installed just prior to the installation of finished flooring goods. Store Ecowarm® Radiantboard® on the job site in a dry, cool space until it is ready to be installed, in the natural progression of construction.

Is Ecowarm® Radiantboard® really that efficient?

Yes. Other higher mass concrete type systems have a lot of mass, which may sound good but they have some resistance and more response time issues. Underfloor systems have both high heat transfer resistance and heat loss opportunities resulting in higher operating costs. You want a system close to the flooring goods with high heat transfer characteristics.

Will Ecowarm® Radiantboard® heat the surface evenly?

Yes, Ecowarm® Radiantboard® heats evenly due to the high heat transfer of its aluminum laminate. In a modern home with proper radiant controls, there is no reason to experience a significant temperature difference between radiant tubes.

Is Aluminum Laminate in the grooves of Ecowarm?

Aluminum laminate is factory installed in the grooves of the Ecowarm® Radiantboard® straight panel, but the super combo panels including curves are made differently as follows:

The super combo boards with curves are first grooved for the tubing using a computerized router. The boards are laminated with the covering layer of aluminum then the grooves are indented and perforated down the middle of the grooves. Combo boards have many perforated grooves to choose from. During installation, the tubing is walked into the chosen grooves splitting the aluminum which then compresses to the side of the tubing.

This results in lower conductivity for ¼ the circumference of the tubing covering in the combo boards (about 35% of the floor surface) It also leaves the conductivity of the aluminum covering unchosen grooves intact. Testing has shown no significant impact on heating efficiency or comfort.

This also significantly lowers manufacturing costs of manufacturing Ecowarm® RadiantBoard®. The result: the best value in the market.

How long does it take to install Ecowarm® Radiantboard®?

If your plan has lots of open space and few tight locations, that makes it faster (fewer cuts and fussing). If your installer has some experience, that really helps. So, planning on 250-500 sq ft per day is reasonable with two people.
