What a cold weekend for Brian and I.
We worked out in the sunroom to get the in-floor heat tubes down. The wind was quite cold on Saturday so I blocked up a couple of the doorways to keep from freezing. Even then our hands and feet were stiff by the time we finished.
The rolls of tube had to be held in the air and only let out a few feet at a time. That was me hold the roll for about an hour and a half at a time while Brian tied it down. That took three rolls of tubing done in a very precise pattern.
It was so hard to work with because of the cold it did not go around the corner well.
The wire underneath was also pulled up because the tubing would not sit flat in the cold.
We just put in some rebar anchors we had sitting around.
It is still not hooked up and tested which is what we have to do before we can pour concrete.
Brian is waiting for Bardon to deliver some washers he needs that are special to this system.
Ah well progress has still been made.
