Hello

I'm looking at the different pipes for UFH, the prices vary a lot and I'm not sure about the differences between the products.

I'm doing two zones, one 127m the other 70m, both will be under screed.

JG barrier pipe will cost £400 but Pert-Evoh-Pert is only £170. Both say they are 15mm but I'm not sure if this ties you down into their manifolds.

Floorwarms do entire kits for £650 whereas if I continue with JG it will be £1300 without the controls

Obviously, once the screed is down there will be no possibility of correcting any pipe mistakes, but on the other hand, I dont want to overpay.

Any help on choosing brands and pipe type will be greatly appreciated

 
Mlcp I would use eg pert al pert

@Uheat – Jake cab supply you some good quality tweetop mlcp and euro cones for the manifold
 
As Shaun mentions drop Uheat a call and they'll spec it and do pipe layouts for you. We use MLCP for UFH and loads of general plumbing, it's great and really easy to work with. I've done dozens of full ground floor UFH systems through them and all work exactly as you would want.

Hi, Short version: I have about 4" of pipe sticking out of a concrete floor in a cupboard. It makes a 45-degree bend as it exists (bent, not with elbows), the last cm before the open end is pretty much straight, but as a result of the bend it is not perfectly round. I mean it is pretty much...

I am generally a decent handyman, can usually make 2+2=4 and take care of most things to avoid troubling experts with just the basics, but know also not to bumble around blindly beyond that. We moved house last week and with the glorious hot weather we weren't bothered about the heating, more...

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...
