As everyone said, in-floor hot water heat isn't a great choice for building that you don't need to keep heated. But if you did the job right, it should not matter whether or not the pipes are filled. If you did the job wrong, filling the pipes won't prevent cracking, anyway.

You should have cut control joints in the pad if it's very large. And the pipe underneath the joints should have been covered with some sort of tubing to allow a bit of movement between the slabs. Whether or not you need control joints depends on the size and thickness of the slab, I don't recall what the rule is.
