    Hi, we have UFH in our conservatory. The front panel of the JG aura unit got detached accidentally. I've clipped it back on and while it still seems to have all the settings and the little flame icon comes on as expected, it doesn't seem to actually fire up the pump and heat the floor. This...

    Can you have painted floorboards with UFH?

    We have painted floorboards throughout our victorian terraced house. We are planning an extension which will make the back of the house a very large open plan space (roughly 7m x 7m).

    What is this brass component on my UFH distribution board

    IMG_20201025_164001 by AndyCW62 posted 29 Oct 2020 at 9:37 AM This brass component is leaking. I can't find anything that looks like it online to try to get a replacement. The top bit looks like an automatic air vent, but the body? Any help identifying this would be appreciated!
