I am planning on having an orangery built at the rear of my home. Planning has been allowed for this. We plan to have open access into the orangery from our lounge (no doors to go through from the lounge into the orangery) so that the orangery can be used all year round.
We have a radiator central heating system throughout the house and our boiler is located in the garage. For our orangery, we would like underfloor heating since the flooring will be tiled. We are not looking to install underfloor heating in the downstairs to our house due to the sheer cost and disruption that will occur.
For our underfloor heating (UFH) in the orangery, one option is to run new pipework (flow & return) from the cupboard where our Megaflow is located, into the orangery via a manifold. I have had some plumbers come over who have suggested this is the best method to allow for UFH in the orangery.
I have read up about air-to-water heat pumps and with the price of gas rocketing, would it be feasible and possible to have a heat pump installed just to heat up the UFH in the orangery?
