Hi all,
I thought you may be interested in seeing our inslab heating pipework. It is Pexal piping, and our kids and I laid it to cover the slab area, except for where built-in cupboards will be. I've made a plan with the exact measurements of where these areas are, colour coded with the five different zones all drawn on, so that we should never drill into it. I'll be building the built-ins, anyway, so at least I will be working with total respect for what's under the surface of our slab!!! We're not sure at this stage how we'll heat the water - but some options are: solar (perhaps Polysola pool heating - we have a corrugated roof), with backup from a Quantum hot water system, plus wetback in our wood heater, and pipework in the big wood-fired oven I plan to build in our conservatory. We'll have terracotta tiles on the floors & perhaps some stone in some areas.
Cheers,
Jill
