What it takes to install Radiant Slab Heat
Prep-Work & Material not required when using a Warmboard
This cost should remain the same unless you add the slab after engineering.
This cost could be substantial pending the final engineering.
Additional 2 X 4's needed,
Additional Labor to install blocking.
