The reason I was thinking along the lines of a buffer tank is that I know UFH systems operates at a much lower temperature than that required for radiators (which are not an option) and oil boilers are either on or off affairs and thought that a store of water for the UFH to draw from would reduce the cycling of the boiler so that when it is running it does so for a efficient length of time.
From what has been said it would appear that I could run the UFH direct from the boiler but the water would need to be obviously lower than that for DHW.
Would the UFH come off the primary or the secondary water circuit?
The weather compensation sounds interesting so looking into that, that said I can regulate the temperature in each room/zone manually using the distribution manifold, very low tech I know but works a treat.
A mate has mentioned a mixing valve to control the temperature of the warm water for the UFH; any advice would again be welcome. Come to think of it a rough drawing might be good so I can get my spinning head to stop! Cheers everyone.
