Have oil fired system in place, would like to convert using as much of existing system as possible.

Not really, the radiant floors usually work off of a mini hot water heater and use a separate circuit dedicated to it if possible. I guess if you tried to do it yourself you could do just about anything. I wouldn’t recommend it though, it takes a dedicated separate system for it to work properly. Radiant floors are great but also come with their own set of problems. I would get it installed by someone that is certified, if not you could run into all sorts of problems with them operating correctly and efficiently.
