Hi there
As you can see from the video below, our pump exploded. The question I have is, this pump is added to a firebird condensing boiler and when we found this mess the boiler and pump were stil operating but the pressure in the boiler was reading 0. Should the pressure switch have kicked in...
Good morning, wondered if anyone can advise please on a resolution?
My set up at home is that I have a 4-bed detached with 21 radiators (includes 4 towel rails), a 6m x 4m orangery/conservatory that was built last year with under-floor heating, and a Megaflo for storing hot water. The UFH...
Hi,
I have an 1904 redbrick 2,500 square feet house.
We have UFH on every floor. 3 Floors
House is reasonably well insulated but far from perfect.
Would there be any point in installing a "air to water" heating system that could link into my existing UFH??
Can anybody identify the make of this divertor valve. Actuator is missing!!
Cheers.
Hi guys. Just bench testing my wiring centre. It all performs as it should but the relay makes a bit of a racket while it's waiting for the valves to open before it calls for heat. Only does it on a UFH zone, if using the rad zone its silent as I guess as it's not delaying/activating the pump...
Hi folks, hoping someone can help with a problem that's been perplexing me since just before Christmas..... I have a wet underfloor heating system installed in 2003 and manufactured by Underfloor Direct in NI - Now out of business. It's one of their triple tube systems and hasn't given me much...
Evening all,
I’m currently in the process of refurbing my house, and have opted to wet UFH for the whole of the downstairs.
The upstairs will be radiators.
The flooring I’ve chosen is 14mm thick engineered wood and I just wanted to know the best way to do things.
At current, the builder was...
Hi there, I'm considering having my heating system controlled by Honeywell Evohome. I have a question about the underfloor heating controller....
I have a single zone water underfloor heating in the kitchen. The controller is currently a Wunda. I've never been all that happy with it because...

Hi guys,
I have a set up with rads upstairs and UFH downstairs. I have installed the manifold for the UFH along with 2x Honeywell 2port values, one near the manifold and the other on the radiator side. I will be using Nest 3rd gen thermostats to control both the upstairs radiators and...
Hi will be using 12x1.6mm MLC for a project and would like to terminate into a fitting other than an UFH manifold, eg, regular 15mm copper. Can't seem to find a coupler for that - any ideas out there? cheers Andy
Morning,
Doing some work on our UFH manifiolds and was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to let me know what the T-fittings in the picture are, thought they might be some kind of tektite fittings?
Many thanks.

HI, we have replaced 3 manifolds (1 upstairs 2 downstairs) with new Warmup units. The installation manual from Warmup states that to fill the system you have to fill each circuit in turn using the fill / drain points on each manifold. However, my plumber said that he always uses the filling loop...
Hi, we had UFH installed dowstairs in our house recently, and I'm not 100% sure that it's connected correctly. I'd be grateful if someone could have a look at the diagrams and tell me if what the plumber did makes sense. The house is heated with an A2W Samsung/Joule heatpump. The buffer...
Hi all! So yes, Richter level 7 earthquake at least. I need to plan an underfloor heating for a 4x4 expedition/overlanding off-road vehicle, and it has to be able to withstand hundreds of miles of Australian corrugated roads and many thousands more of very bumpy roads of all sorts. A shaky floor...

I have isloated it to the UFH and not boiler or radiatets could this be anything other than a leak...

Hi,
I have had an extension built with underfloor heating installed.
The area is open plan and some 64 sqaure metres. Two pipes of 100m each were used - so the manifold has two "ports".
I have a couple of questions if anyone can help please.
1. Is the 200m of pipe enough for the size of the...
What are the disadvantages of low profile wet UFH boards, in comparison to conventional pipe-in-screed systems (those in which there is at least 50 mm of screed)? Would these disadvantages be as relevant in a small bathroom (wet room) application, for which the total floor area is less than 10 m2?
After balancing the flows, one of these blighters has started to drip very slowly from under the red cap. It feels loose to turn, so I suspect the seal around the spindle is to blame. It won't be 'worn' as such, as they don't get fiddled with for years, but this tiny adjustment was seemingly...
I have preformed a Factory Reset and re-calibrated the Thermostat. Can anyone tell me if I now Set the Temperature Control will that cover the total 24 hour period.
I have tried to do this and then found the stat set at 5oC hotter - not a great idea in these cash-strapped times!!
Hi

Any advice much appreciated!
