Dear All,
Can I have some advise please.
I have recently installed a one room wet, pumped single manifold underfloor heating kit for my conservatory of 10m2. I have a conventional Baxi open vented boiler. I am aware that the underfloor heating should run on its own separate supply from the boiler with its own port valve but unfortunately was not possible. The kit I have is designed to "T" off from the radiator flow & return and although I know this isn't an ideal setup it runs really nicely. All the radiators in my house are running normally, accept the large vertical rad that I've "T'd" off from. The other radiator which is also running off this particular feed, and is much smaller is operating normally.
I can feel the flow to this vertical rad is hot, but the return is cold.
I'm assuming that the pump for the underfloor supply is drawing all the hot water away from it which is preventing it from gaining temperature.
Before I look at changing my rad options in my kitchen is there anything I can do to allow this vertical rad to heat up also. Is it a case of re-balancing?
Many thanks in anticipation.
