    i had quarter sawn oak put down over stadler radiant panels without using paper. came out great and haven't had any problems.

    too risky to put it down over paper. chances of hitting a tube would be tremendous.

      *Nofma.org is a great source for many hardwood flooring applications. Speak to them about radiant heat hardwood floor systems to cover your butt.Fish:)
