Hello,

I have the need to drill a number of holes in a residential ceiling with
ceiling heat (house built in early 70's in Oregon).

As I obviously do not want to drill into any of the elements, I need to know
a method for locating the elements.

Thanks for any help with this,

Jon

There are inexpensive stud finders that will locate metallic objects.

or use a laser pointer heat gun, turn heat on, find and mark hot
areas.

cooler areas will be safe
