This is a view of the main floor with the reflective foil insulation partially installed, and the "boots" (the black cones) installed for the plumbing. A double layer of the wire mesh will be installed and tie-wrapped together, and then the Wirsbo tubing will be fastened to it. The electrician will be coming on Friday to install the boots he needs for the electrical, etc.It was really surprising how effective that reflective foil is. It was a decent day - not too hot - but if you stood on top of the foil bubble wrap, it instantly felt like it was about 10 degrees hotter!
This is a photo of the crew preparing to put the wire mesh down. Steve, for example, is tucking the foil backed bubble wrap between the plywood and the steel joists. This is so the concrete will not stick to the plywood at the edge and to help seal that joint to prevent any leaks.
