Cat here,  the way I am planning my in ground heat is to put air tubes into 
the foundation.  I have a step farm and will have my heat source in a green 
house below the house.  The thought is that the heat from the greenhouse and 
masonary stove will rise into the tubes under my earth packed floor with 
Spanish tile or whatever on top.  No fans no electric just heat rising with 
some plugs in the green house to regulate the amount of heat.  I have 
cannibelized an old brick building so I may make my chanels of small arches 
of brick packed against my foundation dirt.  Also look at 8 sided structures 
they give the most space for the least amount of roof and foundation!  Very 
cost effective as well as labor saving!  Hope this gives you some ideas!
