Me and my partner are buying a new build home and we wanted to fit underfloor heating downstairs, we have worked out it will be approx 15sqm of matting 100w matting...
I tend to run a mile from underfloor heating as its a pain in the backside to put right if it goes wrong.
Got a regular customer whose old manual thermostat has died, power goes to it, but nothing else, its dead. Tested resistance of the heat mat and the values pretty much same as paperwork when...
Got two underfloor heating systems to install- both on timber with a tiled finish. Both bathrooms are around 2 x 2.
What systems have people installed and what recommendations have you got?
Any recognised / best practice methods / conduit types for routing cables under floor. I’m looking to feed an island kitchen unit so will be looking to supply an induction hob and sockets.

Hi All,
I've taken a look at a consumer unit today and noticed that the previous electrician wired bathroom underfloor heating using a 20A circuit breaker. There are a range of spare CB's and having made my own calculations, just wanted to check what you all thought.
According to previous...
Hi all, I have had an electrician round doing some rewiring. Whilst most seems good i have had a few problems with him crossing lives and neutrals, connections coming apart and a broken pump (blew whilst he is working here says it was nothing to do with him though). I am trying to persevere...
Evening all,
Just a technical question, I repaired a heat mat today with heat shrink that was supplied in the repair kit. It was very stiff compared to regular heat shrink.
Am I right in thinking that it is stiffer to offer more cable protection but still has the same properties as regular...
Hi, so I have 3 zone valves in place for my heating;
1 - for underfloor heating
2 - 1st floor heating
3 - 2nd floor heating

The 2nd floor has a missing room stat cable so will have to opt for a receiver for a...

Not necessarily electrical but looking for some advise for my own house.
I am currently doing up my en-suite at home and hoping to have a wet room with walk in shower.

I've been asked to install some electric underfloor heating, as part of a bathroom refurb. Never installed the stuff before myself, in fact 'cos of some of the nightmare stories I've read here, I've managed to avoid it. However, got to do it this time. I was wondering if those that have put some...
As above I need to track down a fault on underfloor heating electric mat or loose cable system as to get a guy to come and find fault area from u.k. is around £2,000 apparently and repair etc.. I'm almost certain that it's going to be a joint on the cold tails but any kit that could be used to...

Hi all,
Having trouble wiring up a two zoned wet underfloor heating system which is part of a manifold and controlled by one 4 wire actuator. Ive wired the room stat controlling both zones as normal (which is working), but then i'm unsure how to incorporate the connections for the "NC" 4 wire...
