CONNECTIONS AT MANIFOLD:

Manifolds are usually located in a space with an access panel, near the heating

zone they serve, in places like in the back of a closet. The tubing may be routed

to the manifold in four ways:

1) Insert tubing directly in the grooves, which works with few loops ending adja-

cent to the manifold location.

2) Drill holes, dive the tubing under the floor and bring it up again at the

manifold.

3) Place solid MDF sheet next to the manifold into which supply and return

lines are custom routed to the grooves of the Infloorboard™.

4) Or, tubing may be run out of the Infloorboard™, stapled to the subfloor and

routed directly to the manifold. A grout may then be used to cover the tubing

and level it to the Infloorboard™. If needed, sleepers are placed in between tub-

ing to provide a nailing or screwing base for floor coverings. Use nailing plates as

necessary to protect tubing from damage.

Depending on how many circuits are on a given manifold various sizes of sheets

or grouting area are required.
