2' x 2' Distribution Track Rad Board panel. The Distribution panel is a 3/4" thick aluminum-backed panel with tracks designed to "distribute" radiant lines from the manifold in each loop. Sized for the most common manifolds available today, the Distribution Track can be easily modified to adjust to larger or smaller zones by reducing onsite customization of connecting the lines to the manifold without "diving" under the sub-floor. Tracks securely hold tubing in place and provide a flush finish allowing for easy installation of your floor covering.
- Snap-In Tubing Channels: Precision-extruded tracks grip PEX tubing tightly for optimal thermal contact.
- High-Conductivity Aluminum Build: Conducts thermal energy rapidly across the floor to eliminate cold spots.
- Versatile Subfloor Compatibility: Mounts easily over existing subfloors or between joists in retrofit installations.
Maximizing the output of modern radiant heating systems relies on efficient thermal transfer beneath your finished floors. Installing the Rad Board Distribution Track from DIWH Heating in Athol, ID, provides a lightweight, high-performance heat dissipation layer for your hydronic layout. Designed with ultra-conductive aluminum, these specialized radiant heating panels spread warmth evenly across the subfloor before it rises into your living space. Integrating top-tier home heating equipment prevents fuel waste by allowing your boiler to run at lower fluid operating temperatures. Utilizing durable radiant heating components guarantees silent, rapid thermal response times throughout North Idaho's extreme winter weather. Order today.
- Ensure Level Subfloors: Clean away debris and level the subfloor surface completely before securing the aluminum tracks down.
- Maintain Smooth Turn Bends: Leave adequate clearance at loop returns to prevent kinking your PEX tubing during installation.
- Use Proper Fasteners: Secure tracks firmly using recommended flat-head screws or crown staples to prevent floor squeaks.
Common floor coverings include tile, laminate, engineered wood, hardwood, vinyl and carpet. Consult your installation instructions for these products to ensure proper installation over radiant flooring.
Use the Distribution Rad Board panel in combination with our Ultimate and Straight Track panels to complete your above sub-floor installation.
