Unless your leaving properly empty for a extended period not required.
Even then better to use a frost free setting on thermostat.

It used to be insurers insisted on a minimum temperature of 12C although my insurance is with Admiral and they say I have to take reasonable care and leave the heating on or drain the system if I am away for an extended period in the winter. I set my fallback temp to 18C when at home and 16C when we are away to avoid anything freezing.
Sixteen degrees Celsius? To avoid freezing?
You do know what temperature water freezes at, don’t you?
Thank you for your advice.
Unfortunately the UFH is not yet in commision, and that part of the building (in process) is not yet occupied.
But the pipes are charged and maintaining a good pressure, but the circulation pump has not yet been used.
The floor has been screeded.
