Owner heat traced water lines and tanks, He still froze up
ya when they did my floor of my addition they made me build covers around the plumbing so that they were open to the floor above but insulated below. when they sprayed the heating runs they did each side and then the bottom so the top had nothing between it and the floor. they said when they encapsulate water lines they can freeze and for the heating vents the floor heat will keep the a "room temp, if they insulate all the way around them you will get a blast of cold when your furnace starts up.
