Gray0689 well i can't vouch for any builder as you must also know!...the cylinder will be going on the ground floor ontop of the concreted soild floor which will be the whole of the ground floor and then liquid screeded.

[pappasmurf]

Gray0689 the plumber will only commit to hard copy quote if i want to go ahead with the quote discussed verbally. so don't have anything on paper i'm afraid. but it is as per i've listed previously (posts 82 and 95).

 

[Gray0689]

So it's £10.5k exclusive of vat for labour only of fitting boiler cylinder copper work for kitchen & utility all copper work for 4 times shower rooms witch will have 1x wc 1x whb & leave for shower supply underfloor installation complete commission of said boiler & cylinder.

Builder will be doing all floor insulation and tanking for liquid screed insulation round external walls for cold bridge
All soils and wastes for above kitchen utility and shower rooms & fitting of all sanitary ware

 

[pappasmurf]

Gray0689 yes!... the insulation on the ground floor and tanking+screeding will be done by the builder the plumber to lay all floor panels both on the ground floor and upper floors for underfloor heating.

 

[Gray0689]

Floor panels?

 

[pappasmurf]

Gray0689

 

[Gray0689]

Aw spreader plates on first floor
You can use any kind of mat or rails on ground floor
What mate of underfloor you looking at

 

[pappasmurf]

Gray0689 have a look at this you tube video....Thermoboard System Plates - YouTube

 

[Gray0689]

Will do mate

 

[Gray0689]

Looks grand but I would not be recommending wavin under foor heating pipe
Normally use glo myself and its 20 mm pipe not 15mm or 16mm and uponor is good stuff too

 

[pappasmurf]

Gray0689 never heard of them!.... the only makes i know of are Polyplumb (have this in my existing house), Wavin, and emmeti. Wavin now give a 100 year guarantee on their pipework!!!!! and their composite manifolds are very robust looking and entirely modular 🙂 Thermoboard Composite Manifold Installation - YouTube

 

[Gray0689]

Emmeti and uponor are very similar
I'd go with emmeti or uponor imho
I prefer stainless metal manifolds

 

[pappasmurf]

ok but i think i will go with Wavin brand 🙂 + they have very good RF controls. one RF wiring centre per Manifold

 

[Gray0689]

Check out uponor imho C56 I76 and wireless digital controls

 

[pappasmurf]

Gray0689 your having a laugh!....have you seen the price?!!!.... Uponor ucs radio i-75 i/face with c-55 control

 

[Gray0689]

That's a high price can get a lot cheaper than that

 

[Gray0689]
