For the tubing, you actually use both.The copper is needed for the manifolds to your heat source It does depend on you application though.I think Kitec is the best for putting on the floor. You can drive over that stuff if you want to. Kitec has a few features others don't. It has a layer of aluminum within the tubing for extra flexibility and heat absorbtion. If you're pouring concrete where there was no floor to begin with, you'll need to cover the entire space with wire mesh. This is usually customary for cencrete appplications. Most concrete supply houses have these little wires that they sell buy the thousands. They're relatively cheap and are what you use to fasten the tubing to the mesh. You can also use small plastic cable ties found at any hardware store. The plastic ties will save your hands from blisters.If you are planning to tile or carpet the infloor area, you should use Jip Crete or Gip Crete not sure on the spelling. It's lighter than concrete and works best in that situation. A pressure test is necessary and the concrete will not seal it. You must go back and find the leak, then cut it out and put a fitting in there to get it back together
