Hi , I’ve just bought a house and there’s a big towelrail on one of the radiators, it looks really ugly and no use to me , I want to remove it and wanted to ask if it is ok to remove the towelrail and put blank cups on ? Would it affect anything else with heating?
Hi, I have 5 bed house with underfloor heating on all 3 floors.I also have converted attic. UFH was installed in year 2000.
I want to put low temp rads in attic (it currently has no heating!) and feed water from UFH on floor below.

The (rather sparse) manual with the controller that was supplied with my UFH (Hettaj describes the start sequence as - when demanded by the stat - valves open then pump runs.
As the programmability of the stat is very basic, I’d like to replace it with a smart controller the same as I use on...
Hi
I have a 4 zone / 7 loop UFH system.
2 zones (4 loops) always get hot when the system is on when the zone thermostats and actuators are off.
The video posted shows when I turn on another zones the flow meters drop. (Kitchen prep and kitchen TV are the issue, two at either end of the...
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...

Hello,
I'm looking at installing a new central heating system with UHF on the ground floor and normal rads on the 1st Floor. The design was initially to have at its heart an Ideal System Boiler and a Telford Tempest 500l Indirect Cylinder but I'm considering changing/modifying this design to...
Hi - some advice would be appreciated.
We are doing a refurb and are having water based underfloor heating installed.
The top layer will be 15mm engineered wood (floating).
Our builder has done things in a backward way so I need advice on what is the best solution given the circumstances...
So vinyl instructions say limit is 30c, but that means it'll take longer to get the room hot, which i don't wanna wait. But I also don't wanna destroy the new vinyl I've just laid.
So I thought why not test it.
I have a sous vide machine which will heat water to a consistent temperature, I...
Hi
Installing single zone ufl with Grundfos pump/mixing valve and heatmiser thermostat - not crystal clear from the diagrams how the control connection to LR/LS should be wired (i.e. red on the pump control diagram)
Any advice much appreciated!
Hi all,
I have a Heatmiser UFH installation, 7-8 years old now. This week we noticed that a few of our heating zones were not warming up, even though the thermostat was showing the flame symbol. They were working fine last winter. I knew from when I looked at the installation in the past that...
Hi, I am trying to see if anyone recognises the brand of this underfloor heating manifold? I think it's about 22 years old. I'm trying to get more details to see if I can change the faulty actuator. Any suggestions welcome. Many thanks, Mark

Anyone use a...
Hi. I have underfloor heating controlled by these actuators. One of the behr actuators is stuck on. Can anyone help advise how to turn it off? The newer one on the right is easy to remove and see the pin. The other two don’t seem to have an easy method of removal. Can anyone help?

Thermostat is starting the pump, and lights come on. Pipe is very hot at point 1 - and cold at point 2

Hi .there, can anybody give me advice on how to set up this digital clock. My ufheating is not working and I am trying to figure out if it is the timer or the pump.

Works okay but perhaps could be better. Top of house is coldest.

I spotted this dark stain on my wood floor around 3 weeks ago, last time the underfloor heating was on was in December. Yesterday I switched it on again and it seems to be getting bigger. The stain is dark, no cupping or crowning, no sign of water or moisture. Any ideas whether it's a chemical...
Are there fundamental differences in some of these TMVs?. The attached one, below, would seem to be the better type where a shuttle moves to balance the hot&cold flows, as it increases one flow it decreases the other to keep the mixed flow constant, necessary say in showers etc. I have seen...
