If UFH is the only heat emitter in the system then the flow temp may be excessiveThe pipes coming in to this assembly are piping hot,
It's part of a circuit that mixes the colder return from the UFH with the hot supply. UFH shouldn't be run at the same temperature as radiators arethe pipe leading from the top of the pump to the inlet section of the manifold still hot, but not piping hot,
Yeah but the flexi piping is plastic. Invest in an infrared thermometer rather than going by the feel of itand the flexi piping leaving the manifold to each individual circuit seems barely warm.
Not the whole system, just the pipes that run through out of the manifold top rail, through the floor and back through the bottom rail, through the pump and back into the top railQ; Does the blending valve control the overall temp of the whole system?
I wouldn't necessarily go by any numbers I could see on the valveThis is currently set at a smidgen over 50 -
I wouldn't assume it's Fahrenheit; an 11C circuit wouldn't feel warm, because your hand is typically warmer than 11C, so it would feel coldassuming this to be farenheit. for it's not clear, that's around 11C ....
No, it's not just a case of that; there are probably flow regulators on the manifold that may need adjustment too. What is the floor covering? What temperature do you measure at the floor in each zone, the top rail and the bottom rail?Is it just a case of turning the blend valve higher to coax the whole system to a higher temp?
