radiant heating coils

18 years ago

Who ever gave me the advice on my last question thank you it was very helpful in making my decision.

I don't know what kind of a company to call for this one. I have to replace my asphalt driveway, and when it is dug out I want to install radiant heating coils to melt the snow in the winter. Then replace the asphalt if I can use asphalt over it. Maybe I need to put cement over it. I don't know of any companys that do that and I don't how to look up a company for that job either.

Does anyone know?

Look for a good radiant heat contractor that does snow melt jobs. Find one with references and experience, as you only get one shot at it and a redo is expensive.

I wouldnt install Oxygen barrier pex directly into asphalt, it is typically installed in concrete or if you want asphalt in a sand base with the asphalt over that.

Have you looked up Radiantec online? They have people you can call to ask questions and they sell their products as well.
