when to put down the moisture barrier?
Radiant heat shop floor:
Top soil has been removed
very hard base ground (use a breaking bar to be able to dig in it)
3-7" of 3/4" crush gravel
moisture barrier HERE?
2" polystyryene extruded foam insulation
moisture barrier HERE?
concrete reinforcement mesh
1/2" pex heat tubing
4" concrete with plasticizers and fiber reinforcement
Everyone in the businss has a different opinion if it's below the foam
or on the foam.
Concrete engineer says on the foam
radiant installer says below the foam.
