PEX pattern for pasv solar gain redistribution?
Within a 16x16 4" slab that has the front half in direct passive solar exposure is there a best pex layout pattern for both standard hydronic heating and distribution of solar gain by running pump more or continuous? I can think of concentric outer to center layout, back and forth from front to back and side to side front to back. Any modeling or work in this that anyone has come across.
The adjacent 16x16 loop of 16x32 floor does not have more than 25% solar exposure so the potential or need to redistribute solar gain is limited. |
