I didn't add the metal plates usually used to improve heat transfer, since the water comes out of the boiler at 175 degrees F. This setup works great; the floor is slightly warm and the kitchen is at a comfortable temperature, even though there's only a single six foot baseboard in the kitchen. (I also added a "toekick heater" to add a bit more capacity; it's difficult to get enough baseboard into a kitchen because of all the cabinets.)
