I'm trying to decide how best to heat our upstairs bathroom and because we want to tile the room, figure that UFH is going to be best for comfort.

I've looked at electric but am concerned about the cost and so would prefer to use wet UFH running on the oil based system, possibly on it's own zone.

Minimising raising the floor height is important and so I'm wondering about a low profile system using 10mm pipes. And now I've found some modular boards from Wavin but can not find a price for them anywhere on line.

Has anyone used them? I would probably prefer the plywood option rather than chipboard

Thanks

Steve
 
I think that these are new , Wavin sent info to me about 2 weeks ago . I havent installed any yet , but the system looks good to me . You could contact Wavin direct and they should tell you where to buy the materials .
 
polypipe have a system thats been around a while and ive personally seen a large commercial job with it put in and it honestly was the bees knees.

The issue for yourself will be the cost of a manifold, and seperate run offsetted against the likelyhood of you getting it zoned so you can have you boiler fired up just to heat one room. The electric systems tend to be a lot more cost effective for bathrooms IMHO, especially for domestic households
