pipe sizes for complete heating/DHW system

[Gray0689]

Lol uponor are a massive company mate huge in Europe can't see them going under and I'm building a house soon and that's what I'll put in my own house
I already have the manifolds c56 I 76 and the didital wireless stats

Ps if there that many in house hot water consumption going to be high
You thought about solar panel?

What's the plumber charging for standing time?, waiting for materials or the builder?

 

[chris watkins]

Never mind standing time, SimonG, just imagine his surprise when he get uni-strut & munson rings instead of the plastic clips that he priced for installing. You can just see this one turning into a bun fight quick as anything. what do you reckon one, maybe two weeks tops ?

 

[SimonG]

I was thinking a couple of weeks, if you can get cracked on. Trouble is big jobs never go well, co-ordination is always an issue and the plumber ends up in the mushroom shed. (kept in the dark and fed a load of crap)

ok all you party people, hows it going? gone abit quite on this thread ..... got a quote from a screed it firm offering to supply and install underfloor heating to entire property (240m2) including insulating 235mm depth of EPS insulation and DPC membraning on the whole of the groundfloor. The 1st first floor and loft floor to also have UFH. The builder to install the insulation on battens on the top 2 floors. The heating manifolds and PEX pipework will be Emmeti. All the controls will be Wireless Heatmiser (PRT-W) thermostats. The whole of the groundfloor will also be fully Liquid Screeded to a depth of 65mm. This installation does not include any pipework up to the manifolds. The plumber will have to do all that. They are quoting me approx £10,000 for the whole job. Does anyone know if these Emmeti brand and heatmiser brands are any good?.... someone was telling me that Emmeti is/was linked to Uponor!... is this true?... also how does this price sound to you guys?... pls advise

Get a couple or three quotes and then decide from there.

 

[pappasmurf]

Howsie yes i will be doing that, but i just thought that someone on here might have an idea or two on the price

 

[Howsie]

Of course we have but to be honest, it's a little like my dog chasing her own tail.
