Streamlining Radiant Heating Installation with Heat-Sheet Heavy – A Professional’s Guide (Part 2)

In our March post, we explored the initial steps of installing radiant heating with Heat-Sheet Heavy, guided by Kyle Stumpenhorst from RR Buildings. In this next installment, we delve into the techniques involved in setting up manifolds and arranging tubing effectively, drawing from Kyle’s jobsite experience. Collectively, these two posts aim to provide an effective […]
Do You Need A Blower Fan For Your Home’s Radon Diffusion System?

Radon, a naturally occurring radioactive gas, poses a significant health risk in homes, especially when it seeps through foundations. Addressing this challenge, under-slab radon diffusion systems play a critical role in ensuring home safety. Central to these systems is the blower fan, a component often questioned for its necessity. Here, we explain why a blower […]
Radon: Just How Harmful Is It?

Radon is odorless, tasteless, and colorless. Allegedly, Radon is also extremely harmful to the health of humans. Worst of all, the sneaky gas supposedly targets us right where we expect to feel safest — in our very homes. But the problem with gauging the true effects of Radon is twofold. Firstly, the gas is virtually […]
Heat-Sheet Heavy – The Lab-Tested Solution For Superior Under-Slab Radon Diffusion

Builders are increasingly understanding the dangers associated with radon. The toxic gas is the #1 cause of lung cancer in non-smokers; it’s invisible; it’s odorless; and it’s surprisingly good at infiltrating homes. And yet, the industry continues to rely on relatively rudimentary methods, such as a 4-inch gravel layer and a PVC pipe, to diffuse […]
How Heat-Sheet® Heavy Works As An Effective Under-Slab Radon Mitigation Insulation Layer

You may know Heat-Sheet® as a convenient solution for installing PEX tubes in hydronic radiant floors. But did you know that Heat-Sheet® also makes for an effective under-slab radon mitigation insulation layer when installed a certain way? In the post below, we’ll explain how to get the double benefit of Heat-Sheet® by using it as […]
