Staple-UpFoil-faced batt insulation.Insulation needs tomake contact withthe header beamto create a sealedcavity.TJI JoistOpen Web Trusses offer several advantageson large construction projects. Webb Trussfloors can carry heavier loads and can spangreater distances.Typical TJI (Truss Joist International) cross-section.To help seal the joist cavity, the insulationneeds to be placed up against theheader plate of the truss. This will preventair from moving from bay to bayand from moving downward to theenvironment below. By doing this, a2" air gap is no longer a possibility.If the insulation is placed so it justextends into the header space, a 1/2" -3/4" air space should be easily maintained.It still remains critical that theinsulation does not touch the radianttubing.Layout ExamplesFloor: Step Frame by Floor: Step FrameStep Floor: by Stepby StepSupply ManifoldSupply ManifoldSupply ManifoldSupply ManifoldSupply ManifoldSupply ManifoldSupply ManifoldSupply ManifoldReturn ManifoldReturn ManifoldReturn ManifoldReturn ManifoldReturn ManifoldReturn ManifoldReturn ManifoldReturn Manifoldove illustration The above shows The illustration a above serpentine illustration shows layout a serpentine shows a serpentine layout The layout above illustration The above shows The illustration a above sperpentine illustration shows layoutsperpentine shows a sperpentine layout layout The above illustration The above shows The illustration how above to illustration "pick shows up" how a shows bay to "pick how up" to a "pick bay upanded areaThis illustration shows a serpentine layout with awith a running banded with parallel a area banded running to the area exposed parallel running to parallel the exposed to the with exposed a bandedThisareaillustrationwith a running banded with perpendicularshows a serpentinea area banded running area to perpendicular running thelayout with a Thisperpendicular to the to whenillustrationthe the previousshowswhen circuithowthe previous when terminatesto “pickthe circuit previous mid-run.up” a bayterminates circuit The terminates mid-run.

To ensure balancedflow through each circuit, a reverse return method is recommended. A reverse returnmanifold requires a third copper line to be installed. This extra line allows eachcircuit to “see” the same total manifold length, thus creating a balanced system.For more information on long manifolds and other manifold options, refer to theAppendix.Supply ManifoldFlowCapped EndCapped EndFlowSupply ManifoldCapped EndFlowFlowCapped EndReturn ManifoldFlowReturn ManifoldFlowWatts Radiant: Onix Installation Manual page 25
