Obvioulsy all things can go wrong, lack of vapor barrier can cause freezing damage, bad underlayment, too thin.....

The heat sources on my jobs were done by others and used refrigeration rejection heat to warm the water. I don't remember the temperatures off hand, but the supply was something like 70 deg F. The return coming back was very cold to the touch. So much so that we had to insulate it to prevent sweating. Probably 50 deg F or less. Again, the point is to just keep the ground from freezing - nothing more.

You might want drains in the freezer itself in the even of a water leak or something else, but I don't think you need them for the permafrost protection.
