I have just begun a 1100sqft basement remodel.
First step Radon Test. Came back 12.4.
So I will have a mitigation fan hooked up to the currently being installed drainage sytem.
Next Step is a vapor barrier for the floor. I am going with Delta FL membrane.
Once the membrane is down I was considering a radiant heating system such as raupanel, quicktrack or warmboard. Anybody have any suggestions?

I have used the warm board and it is pricey but its performance is exceptionaly good, be sure to insulate under what ever you put down

Warmboard is a fine product but would be an expensive misapplication in your case.

If the slab is not insulated, I typically recommend Roth panel if floating floors or tile can be used.

So any suggestions? I was looking more into Zmesh, can't seem to find the cost anywhere. The hydronic systems are still an option but Zmesh seems to be a very quick and easy install.
