Speaking of radiant floor heating in the shop, it would seem like a good
idea to somehow, very accurately, map the layout of your tubing in the
floor. Someday you may want to run some anchor bolts into the concrete and
it would really suck to hit a tube and have water squirting up through your
floor.


Burying the tubing 3" to 4" down should clear most bolts. If they
won't there's the expensive way - turn the system on and use some sort
of thermal imaging device to map out the pipes...

Or the cheap way - spray a little water on the floor, turn the
system up high, get down on your knees (I know, easy for some
people...) ;-) and mark where the floor dries out first with a
pencil. The marks will be right over the pipes.
