Excellent book for a DIYer planning on installing a hydronic radiant system. Gives basically all the information that you need to plan and install a full system. Some of the topics are pretty involved and require some basic math, but the book walks you through everything with great detail. Covers:
1) Determining heating load estimates
2) Required water temperatures and flow rates
3) Pipe installation, including pumps and expansion tanks
4) Several approaches to zoning
5) Laying PEX tube for radiant panels

The book was very useful. The only drawback was the "Hydronics Design Kit" was not included. This costs an additional $76 from Oikos.com and is referred to many times in the book. Therefore, it is almost a requirement during use of the book.
