Radiant Heat - Cost Psf?


Hello....I have a rather large remodel requiring radiant heat. I have been pretty unsuccessful finding any good info when it comes to the true costs of this stuff.

Can anyone point me to a good resource (or be one) for determining the cost per square foot of a wet radiant heat install - all inclusive, with gypcrete floated over the top?

Thanks in advance for the help

you will not get that question answered here. there is no one set price, and what does wet radiant mean?

Just referring to a hydronic (liquid-based) system as opposed to an electric/mat type of setup

I would ask the HVAC guys they may have a better idea or the plumbers, I put it in my house but I did all the work so the cost was for materials, which ran me around $5,700 that inclues the boiler and baseboards I needed in some rooms, I have 4 rooms with radiant floor heating I used PEX Tubing just 300' cost me $600. now Home Depot is carrying it.
