Hi, I’m hoping someone can help – I need a bit of advice / help as I'm not sure if the recent cold spell is too much for the UFH in the main living space (it's a barn conversion so 25ft high vaulted area) and I've checked all I can think of. It's 15 degrees despite all looking to be OK to me...
Hi,
Hoping someone can comment on whether what I see happening at my UFH manifold is OK, or whether there is cause for concern. I'm not an expert on underfloor heating, Our system was fitted about 10 years ago and has worked flawlessly with zero issues all this time.
As you can hopefully see...
Hi folks.
Sorry this is a long one. I'll try and keep it organised.
Son has just moved into a purpose built (2013 ish) 4th floor apartment as a tenant. No gas in the building. Triple glazing.

Good Evening,
We live in an old stone farmhouse which we are steadily 'improving' as the years go by.
The heating is provided by a CTC GSi 12 GSHP feeding UFH in the kitchen and Dining Room and radiators elsewhere.
The time is fast approaching when the bathroom is due a workover. In common...

Hello,
I have a Vitodens 100-W B1KA Combi boiler installed in a new build. In the first 4 months of use the boiler has burned on average 500 litres/month. Not sure what I was expecting but that seems high. Any dieas of what I can do to improve it? I've eliminated any ramping by keeping the zone...
Hello
I have an oil fired Worcester regular boiler which suddenly has a mind of its own. Programmer totally off but the boiler is firing up. I’ve noticed that the valve doesn’t move when I turn on the programmer and click the thermostat to on. Should it? The DHW valve doesn’t have a visible...
Hi guys
Is it better to have two 2 port valves or one 3 port valve to control the flow to either dhw or underfloor heating ? Cheers
I have a client with 5 manifolds that are Pulsar Direct supplied .I know Pulsar direct are no longer. I have a few with leaking TRV (RBM -TL50) pins. How easy is it to change the pin side of the valve. . Are they standard or specific to the manifold?
Where would I look for spares. Just had 'we...
Hi, we have a leak from the underfloor heating manifold. It appears to be leaking from one of the thermal actuators (please see photos). It’s leaking about a cupful every day. So far, I’ve talked to about 10 local plumbers:–
Contacted original installer. The admin person kept telling me that...
Hi there, just after some advice. I have an underfloor system installed and at the time of laying I had a spare loop put in with a view to adding a conservatory. I've now changed my mind and want instead to add in a single radiator. I can see the unbroken loop protruding into the conservatory...
Bit of advice needed. Searched but couldn't find anything about Combi's and UFH with no rads.
Customer wants to have a combi, UFH but no radiators. Is it a good idea to have a single radiator on the system to provide a heat dump? Or should an auto-bypass suffice? If an auto-bypass then close...
Hi folks, this is probably a simple thing I'm missing but I don't want to force and break anything.

Hi everyone.

My normal supplier has phoned me today to say they cant supply the grooved cement board overlay system(18mm) till end of September.
Can anyone recommend any suppliers that may stock it ? need 230m2. Will need to make some calls tomorrow and find another source if possible.
Hi,
Having wet underfloor heating put in and been doing some reading, think pipe spacing is going to be 200 but read somewhere 100 from walls & sliding doors/bi-folds - is that correct ?
What distance would people recommend from kitchen units ? I have a run against one wall and then a 1200...
The following is a proposed very simple installation of UFH open/direct to an existing 1000 gallon fossil fuel hot water storage tank:
We are told that this won't work since the UFH pipework and pump are above the height of the tank, and therefore gravity will empty the UFH... But our...
