Hello, My husband and I recently installed a boiler and radiant bb heating in our home and LOVE it. We are finishing our basement and we ran into a problem I'm hoping someone on this board can help us sort out. Our bb installation was the first for our plumber so some bbs were installed directly on the concrete floor. We're getting ready to order carpet and are concerned about the carpet placement and air flow. The bb are slant flin.

With a plush carpet and pad you might be at almost an inch or even over. • you don't want the tuck to be so tight that it looks like the carpet is being smashed under the baseboards. The carpet should look like it is just flowing under.

Best Way To Install Baseboard

What are our options for carpet in these rooms? Should we have our plumber raise the bb? Install the carpet up to the bb but not under? Do we need a minimum amount of clearance?

Thanks for your help! Under Baseboards: It must be raised a minimum of 3/4'. Have a pine strip made that 5' longer than the given length of the baseboard. If it is a 8' (96') baseboard, add 5' to the strip, now 105'.

That's 2.75' each for the end caps. Set the back panel in the strip. Cccam C Line Manager. The end caps will fit to the end of the strip. Cut the baseboards back carefully and when done, you will have a neat fit. The carpet installer will run the carpet up to the front of the baseboard against the strip. It will be a very neat and professional looking installation. That's how I do it.
