The first problem you have is the none of these products can be shipped to NY. The Unions and State of New York Restrict all of these products to purchase by a licensed applicator only. If you know someone out of State who can purchase these products for you, then you could proceed.
As far as your treatment plan, it sounds like a good plan. The idea here is to treat wood, and not open spaces. So blindley pushing foam under the floor is not a good plan, treating the exposed wood where the termites are feeding or entering is a good plan.
My recommendation is to use Termidor in every place possible, limit the use Bora Care or even not use it. Termidor works very differently than Bora Care and will control the termite colony. Bora Care will not, it only kills termites that eat the treated wood. Very limited as to how it works.
Also, be careful and do not treat any areas where air circulation could result in vapors from Termidor or BoraCare being pushed back into the living space. If the Radiant Heat Tube does this, then don't use anything in this area.
Hope this helps.
