    Quick overview video showing how to install wet under floor heating system using low profile 15mm overlay panels made from dense fibre. The finish floor is tiled. Video shows how to install underfloor heating pipework and panels to be later tiled over. I also give a short explanation of how to install a one zone wet underfloor heating system.

    Good video, there are so many retrofit options out there now.

    Well presented and really interesting, thanks for sharing! Quick question, can UFH replace an existing radiator and just run off the main CH loop, and if you wanted have a seperate zone valve on the manifold itself? My plumbing is located in a pretty awkward location. For that sake could you sacrifice one radiator and run manifold to multiple rooms, assuming standard 15mm CH pipes?

    Have you ever used Novatherm 20mm panels, 200mm centres and 16mm pipework? Do you know if its best to fix these panels to the floor or use as floating? Floor cover to be floating engineered wood

    What's the heatloss on a system like this? If its lay over a uninsulated 200 year old slab is it gonna provide enough insulation?

    Is this type of dry underfloor heating system as efficient as a wet (screed) underfloor heating system? That is, I guess the wet system means you heat a mass (screed) and it stores the heat longer? Or are these dry panels so well insulated they hold heat?

    Hi, I have another question for you, do you know if you're tiler used a coupling mat of any kind such as Ditra? certain companies are suggesting that you tile directly on to the UFH system but I have never seen tiling done without a coupling mat. Perhaps the coupling mat takes away from the heat output tho.. your thoughts? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks

    • @UrbanPlumbers

      Yes all those matts put to much resistance on ufh

    liked a subscribed, thanks for the informative video. I'm currently looking to use this system in my home, 36sqm on all of the downstairs, the issue is that it is straight on to concrete, i'm worried that i might not get a good heat output from the system. using it with a worcester 35Kw boiler and floor covering is tile. would it put out sufficient heat and not cost loads in gas bills? Thanks

    • @UrbanPlumbers
      @UrbanPlumbers  2 года назад

      You will get around 50watts a square meter from those systems. Downward loses are not that big. Expect around 1.5kw output if done correctly.

      @@UrbanPlumbers great thank you, I will double check my heat calculations, I've got double glazing and polystyrene insulation pumped into the cavity of external walls so i'm feeling more confident that 1.5Kw will do it, thanks again!

      Isn't the heat loss through the floor in a house only usually around 10% as heat mostly rises not the other way round?

    Do you know of a way to have multizone opentherm? I know you can have multizone load compensation with Vaillant boiler and controls but you need to invite the whole Vaillant family which it's expensive as hell.

    I’ve installed 6 x actuators for 6 x individual zones and a new combi boiler. Client has requested for Google Nest to be installed. Is there a way of installing just one ☝️Google Nest to control the 6 x zones. Or would you need to install 6 x Google Nests?

    What about heat loss into the concrete slab as there is not likely to be any insulation under it?

    • @UrbanPlumbers
      @UrbanPlumbers  2 года назад +1

      Heat loss does not change with UFH or radiators - it is still the same. UFH makes it more comfortable and economical even without floor insulation. Panels provide some degree of insulation.

    Hi. I called a company to give me a rough quote on a wet underfloor heating. He’s giving me a quote that seems expensive. Two rooms at about 12m2 each and is charging me nearly £3000. Does that sound unreasonable? He stated at the very beginning that they weren’t cheap. What do you think?

    Why didn't you turn the boards in such a manner to have the grooves perpendicular with the wall where you have the manifold behind ? This would have allowed you to also run nicely in the other room ..
