B.5.1 Rapid Grid considerations
Installation of the Rapid Grid panel
1. Using a box cutter or key hole saw, remove
the tongue portion of the interlock from both
the 4' and 2' dimensions; every time a panel
touches a concrete wall the tongue should
be removed so that a full 2" of insulation is in
contact with the concrete.
2. Place a full panel in the upper left corner of
the north wall; it is usually easiest to work
from left to right.
3. Place the next panel to the right of the
rst panel so that it locks into the groove;
the 4' dimension should be at the bottom
(horizontally) and the 2' to the right (vertically).
4. Move along the rst row, lling in the panels
and interlocking them together.
5. Upon reaching the east wall, measure and cut
the nal panel to ll that row.
6. When starting the next row, begin by
installing the remnants of the nal panel from
the previous row; this is done to eliminate
waste as well as to keep the seams from
lining up. If there are no remains from the
previous row, a panel can be cut in half to
start the next row.
7. Continue lling the rows in this manner until
the oor is covered with panel.

Installing the tubing in the panel
Review your radiant design to nd the proper
spacing for the tubing. To ensure that the runs are
properly spaced, count the number of knobs and
ats in between the tubing and multiply by 3. For
example, in Figure B-5 the spacing would be 9".
The minimum spacing should be 6" on center and
increase incrementally by 3" ( 6, 9, 12 …)
1. Place the tubing between the knobs.
2. Using your hand or foot, push the tubing in
between knobs.
