Instalación y prueba del sistema
Punto críticoCómo verificar
1. Verify pressure test was performed before covering tubing (should maintain pressure for 24 hours)
2. Check manifold location — must be accessible for service
3. Verify tubing spacing matches design (typically 8-12" on center)
4. Check that tubing is properly secured (no floating or shifted sections)
5. Test system operation — all zones should heat evenly
6. Check surface temperature — should not exceed 85°F (29°C) for most flooring
7. Verify thermostat controls each zone independently
8. Check for proper insulation below tubing (prevents downward heat loss)
Problemas frecuentes
- No pressure test before covering (can't find leaks after concrete is poured)
- Tubing spacing too wide (cold spots)
- Manifold not accessible (can't service or adjust)
- Surface temperature too high (damages wood flooring, uncomfortable)
- No insulation below (heat goes down instead of up)
- Zone control not working (can't adjust room by room)
