I'm to the stage were i am looking for a propane heater and a manifold with all the various components to hook up to my pex. I dont have AC power, i am all solar, all 24vt dc. although i can convert to 12 vt. Does anyone have experience with this or know of a source for dc radiant components? Im not sure about the thermostat and rely, but im sure i can make it work with a low voltage dc pump, but i need a source for these components. Thank you.

You bet its real...i need some help here. I need a pre built manifold, relay, and pump, all 24 volt. I have two pex circuits in one zone (300' 1/2"). I dont have much power (300 watts solar), so i need a small and very effecient pump. I also need a product supplier that is knowledgeable to assist me in the design. All of the sources i have contacted so far deal strickly in AC.

Just to let you know i found two sources and they are both in Novia Scotia, I guess the Americans are a little behind. Too bad, freight is going to kill me.

Hi John, sorry for the lack of response there; just FYI, the only experience we've ever had with DC components was bad. Poor reliability, loud, just not very nice.

But if you gotta, you gotta. Best of luck!
