Nu heat underfloor heating

[Sharp Point]

Hey guys n gals,

Anybody had any dealings or fitted their ufh heating products. The customer has decided to go with these people, because the thin trays are retro fitted to the floorboards and something like a 30mm screed put on top, so the customer can tile everywhere. It’s a huge very old property. I’m more alarmed that it’s goimg to have 6 manifolds... 3 up 3 down and they’re all served by one pump in the boiler room, meaning there’s no blending valve or pump on each manifold. This doesn’t sit good with me.

Thanks

How many zones ?

 

[Sharp Point]

11

 

[Sharp Point]

275 m2

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Total or each manifold ?

 

[Sharp Point]

Total and 10mm microbore plastic

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Sounds too much

Wants a llh with two pumps one for up one for down mixers and either two main blended or one at each man

I didn’t consider putting a llh into the equation, but yes one pump supplying everything seems bonkers. But apparently they have some sort of assurance policy that comes with the system. They design everything, even all the pipework feeding the manifolds.

He was bragging on how they’ve got a massive % of the market.

i would get something written up and get them to sign it

design done by x and x installed to spec etc

The quote for all the kit is 16k and the custard is going for it too.

I can believe the low stuff isn't cheap but saves having to dig out etc

 

[ShaunCorbs]

I would try and think ahead if it doesn't work so do two runs and join them back by the pump etc

Just connected to something similar but not quite so big
By nuheat
There is a boiler with LLH, heating zone, hot water zone and then the UFH has a pump module which supply's all UFH

I think that’s the same company Scott

Like I said earlier Shaun, they design All the pipe runs too, there’s a schematic drawing with pipesizes to the manifold.

Follow spec then you can't be held accountable

Yep I've fitted Nu Heat on a job, 1 pump station for 2 manifolds which I thought strange but it works well for the job.

I didn't like the pipe that much and they were short on on of the circuits by about 9 metres!
They gave me 2 options, 1st they would supply a compression coupler and more pipe or 2nd they would send a longer coil of pipe, went with the longer pipe for piece of mind!
