non foil faced boards

I think the answer is yes ! The foil is to help performance but only works if there is a gap between the foil face and the next surface so buried in a floor build up should be fine. 
maybe wait until someone confirms this before buying ?

The calculate that it isn't worth the bother as the temperature differences are too small.

 

Thinking about it as visible light is not how it works, we can't see sound and radio waves, but we can reflect, bend and focus them.

The smaller the gap between the radiative and adsorption surfaced the more energy transferred. Conduction is only radiative transfer, but at the scale of electrons turning into photons.
