We are putting in our first underfloor hydronics system.
We want to use Radiant Engng Thermofin-C heat plates on 8 inch centers.
They recommend ViegaPEX Barrier (PEX-c) because they say PEX-c is gripped by the track better -- but it has a 9.5 min C/L bend radius. We find this troubling.
They have had noise problems with PEX-a from a company we don't know -- Mr Pex.
They don't sell Wirsbo hePEX (PEX-a) due to a Wirsbo selling a competing heat plate.
So the questions are --
Does anyone have experience with these plates and with whose PEX and type?
What about this bend radius issue?
Who is making good barrier PEX now?
Is there a overall recommendation?
