I dont have water heat in the floors but do have insulated rock skirting around the edge and in the joists there is fiberglass and under that is 2" of foam and everything is buttoned up tight, no air leaks. But we have to have the stove going to be barefoot. It used to get -20 every winter, but much milder the last 10 years but still way too cold to start diesel cars with a off grid system, too hard to use the block heaters. The dogs have a very nice cozy warm nest though. mAX
