Your tubing layout is top drawer, BTW. Very professional. You will snip off the cable ties, I hope. haha.

Thanks...the cable ties will look cute coming up between the tiles, don't you think?
Check out:
Multi-layer insulation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
I've seen a two or three layered, quilted, reflective bubble insulation that I'd like to use probably just placing it on top of the fiberglass batts when I push them up into the voids between the joists. It will be imprecise, but there will be a space between the foil and the subfloor just from the settlement of the fiberglass over time.
