    The information you received was a mixture of decade-old objections that have since been solved and suits against inadequate materials now past. Radiant floor tubing has been coated with an oxygen barrier for over ten years now. The new pex-al-pex products used have a built-in metal oxygen barrier to prevent this problem.

    There are suits against a rubber tube product and a polybutylene product that are still in settlement and no longer recommended, but these objections do not apply to all radiant floor products in use.
