Hello,
I have recently had an extension built with underfloor heating, which runs on the same circuit as my radiators. It all works perfectly and is nicely balanced, but it hasn't yet got any inhibitor in the system. I've seen various fungicide kinda things formulated for underfloor heating, but I'm guessing that if the water's at a temperature high enough, any bacteria will get killed as it runs through the boiler. Or is it the length of the pipe run that's the issue; ie. the water is cool enough at the far end of the run that bacteria could grow?
So, can I use bog-standard Fernox/Sentinel/No Nonsense inhibitor? Or do I need something fancy?
Thanks,
Paul
