The PEX is not in the floor -- it just feeds baseboard radiators.

whats the big deal? makes for a great plumbing solution that does not suffer from the typical corrosion and interior pitting issues that things like copper do, and its way easier to repair when and if it splits like if the pipe freezes.
ive installed it for hot and cold water. It also expands a little better than copper, so in a situation where a copper pipe will split, a PEX pipe
might split. interesting they used if for radiant heat, any pics?
