Technical Details

Specifications
The document outlines the specifications of underfloor heating systems, focusing on components such as pipes, manifolds, actuator valves, control packs, and heating controls. The 15mm Polybutylene pipe features an oxygen barrier and is approved for use in central heating systems. Manifolds are made from stainless steel, available in various sizes, and include features like Speedfit push-fit fittings and flow rate indicators. Actuator valves are controlled by thermostats or programmers. The control pack, suitable for systems up to 14kW, includes a mixing valve and a Grundfos pump.
Procedures

Key Data from Tables
The document includes tables showing heat output for various floor finishes and systems, with values depending on the tog value and flow/return temperatures.
