SubRay™ Hydronic Radiant Floor Heating
SubRay is a safe, practical and easy way to install radiant floor heating over frame or slab floors. SubRay can be installed as a whole-house heating system, or used to heat a basement or room addition.
Modular Makes It Simple
A system of header and sleepers make installation of hydronic radiant floors a simple matter.
Header Sticks hold radiant tubing at each end of the room and space it on 8" centers.
Sleepers are 6" wide (±1/8"), are installed 2-1/8" apart. They support the finish floor and provide a radiant heat channel for the tubing.
Radiant Tubing from Watts Radiant such as RadiantPEX® or Onix™ makes the system complete providing clean, efficient and silent operation.
Compared to Thin Slabs SubRay is…
Thin - 5/8" or 3/4" thick
Lightweight - Less than 2 lbs. per square foot.
An easy installation - No need to wait weeks for the slab to cure. No scheduling problems with separate subcontractors.
Moisture-Free - No hundreds of gallons of moisture to manage.
Compared to Other Slab Alternatives, SubRay® is…
Clean - No messy silicone needed.
Two sizes - 15mm (5/8") for 3/8" RadiantPEX®; 18mm (3/4") for 1/2" RadiantPEX® or Onix™.
Silent - Floating design. Won't pop squeak like some aluminum plate systems.
Quality - Header Stick, Corner Sweep and all other SubRay components are made with cabinet-grade, Group 1 Baltic Birch.
