Radiant Floor Heating Second Edition by R. Dodge Woodson. Consider this book your survival guide in the ever-changing world of heating systems. With it, you have plenty of opportunities to grow and prosper. Look over the table of contents. Thumb through the pages. Look at the numerous illustrations. Scan the reader-friendly text. It will only take a few moments for you to see that this single book may be the most valuable tool in your arsenal of money-making tools. You are holding the power of the future at your fingertips. Don’t let it get away from you. Radiant floor heating systems require only a low-temperature fluid to do their job. This translates into lower operating costs. The PEX tubing used to create most radiant floor systems is very inexpensive when compared to copper tubing. Since radiant floor heating rises
from a floor, it actually heats more space than perimeter heat emitters do.
