      Yeah everything is. Lasts 50+ years which, IDK if you’ve ever had a furnace replacement, but they’re not cheap and easy especially if it’s tucked somewhere weird.

        50+ years? I have yet to see one last more than about 10 before needing to be replaced or fixed. Most often just shut off and go back to traditional heating. Our new-to-us home is about 25 years old and the previous owner said most of the in floor heating was already shot when they bought it 12 years ago.
