Snow Melt Systems
Shown:
Heated Concrete Drive
Concrete poured over heating tubes on reinforcement,
extruded rigid insulation on compacted fill and undisturbed
soil. |

Building code requirements for insulation and vapor barriers.
Both ACI and CSA have requirements for embedded pipes in concrete which includes allowable fluid temperatures during curing cycle and allowable depths of tube.
These topics have been discussed in the online forum. |
