Customer Reviews for VEVOR Radiant Floor Heat Transfer Plates 4' 50 pcs Omega Aluminum for 1/2" PEX

I bought this for two flooring projects, 1) above the subfloor and 2) a room with under the floor. The \"above the subfloor\" went onto new OSB sturd-floor in a portion of a cabin that is 100 years old. I didn't trust the floor joists to hold k-crete. So I put 2\" styrofoam with foil face under the floor and sealed it with spray foam from can. I laid down the transfer plates between 3/4\" plywood sleepers and put the pex inside it. It went down smooth and with the pex it sits a hair below the plywood. The old cabin floor still moved alot and the 3/4\" plywood sleepers being screwed and glued really stiffened it up! Glad I did it this way. No need to worry about tight tolerances between the plywood sleepers, it's better to have a little leeway, 1\" gap is fine. I initially tried getting close to really sandwich the pex and transfer plate in but it was more work then gain. I am not sure what the blue plastic coating is on the transfer plate, we peeled it off in most cases, but left some on. We we were laying the transfer plate down into the gap so the blue was on the down side. The u-turns, I call them, are where the pex turns around. This gap is 5/8 wide and deep. The pex fits tight in that. Holds it in place. Those were router with bushing guide and a template I made. I put underlayment over the transfer plate/pex to smoothen it some. Will put floating LVP over that. Be very careful to not hit the pex when stapling. Mark out the underlayment where the pex is. Made sure I put a few staples in the transfer late too, just to hold it. I originally ordered 100 plates from eBay and it was supposed to be Omega, it wasn't. But the eBay order said faster shipping, like a week. I used them with no issues, they were Vevor. So for the same price I ordered the next batch of 100 from Amazon. Amazon indicated 2 weeks shipping time, they arrived in like 6 days. I don't see where the Omega will help that much. I'm sure there is some physics involved but these fit t

These worked great for the job. Under floor heat works great. Thank you for the crazy fast delivery. I will definitely recommend you to anyone who needs to purchase these for a job or improvement project.

These are great, same thickness as other similar options. They arrived quickly in good condition. The only thing is they come with a blue plastic film on the outside that's a bit of work to remove from every single piece. I suppose maybe you don't have to remove it, but I am and it's some extra work. All in all though, I'm happy with the purchase. The 2 footers are generally easier to install, but the plastic coating is slightly more difficult to remove than the 4ft, at least the batch I have.

As always these plates are of equal quality at a beter price compared to its competitors. I have yet to be disappointed with a Vevor product.

Work out nicely. pretty easy to install I used a staple gun. Only problem is I ordered to many pieces. thanks, Craig

These plates do what they say, i have a baseboard system im adding floor heat to. I used a 1/2 crown staples w an air stapler for an underfloor installation but had to back the air pressure way down to avoid blowing the staples through the plate. Not sure why people are complaining about the blue film, i just left it on, it doesnt impede the function of the plates at all and in most installations they wont be visible upon completion.

These are easy to install, fit perfectly over pex tubing. And help with heat transfer. It does not cause any leaks. It’s not flexible. And for the money it has cheap for the money on heat transfer

As ordered and as advertised. Will make pex tubing install much easier and heat will be transfered better.

I recently purchased to install retro infloor heating in my home. I have yet to fire up this new zone as I'm still plugging away at it. But these were super easy to use and install.
