My In-floor radiant heat system in my pole barn workshop is finally complete. My system includes 3 runs of 1/2" PEX 300' long and a 30 gallon Power Vent water heater. The system also contains a pump and controller, manifolds, strainer, water separator, and expansion tank.

This heating system for my shop is working great. Once it came up to temperature the system barely ever runs. I have been out in the shop working for 6 or 8 hours and the heating system never kicked on once. My guess is that it only runs once or twice a day to maintain 60 degrees.

For reference, I started my system on December 10th and filmed this video on December 29th. I live in Michigan where the temps have been in the 20's at night and 30's during the day. I'm sure it will work a bit harder once the temps get into the single digits.

I am not an HVAC professional, so this video is only demonstrating how I set up my own personal system.
