broken radiant floor heat pipe

[SNations]

Do any of you have experience with what a water leak in a radiant floor heat system looks like with infrared?  I don't really understand what I'm seeing at this bathroom floor.  Other areas of the house with radiant floor heat look just like you'd expect.

Ceramic tile? It's inconsistent contact with the thinset causing the hot spots visible in the image. No hot spot, no thinset.

Just close the feed to  the boiler and watch the pressure gauge for any drop. Too many gadgets require lots of experience to analyze properly.

 

My bad.  I edited the original statement.
