Explore Our Underfloor Heating Range

Our category range is organised into four core product groups to support efficient site procurement for water-based underfloor heating systems.

Underfloor Heating Fittings

We stock mechanical, push-fit, and compression connectors for securing subfloor pipe circuits. Our selection includes manifold Eurocone adapters, pipe stiffeners, straight couplers, repair splices, and many more.

Underfloor Heating Pipes

Supplied in continuous coils to minimise subfloor joints, our pipe selection provides high thermal conductivity and structural durability. The range covers standard barrier pipes engineered to prevent oxygen permeation, protecting the wider boiler system from internal corrosion.

Underfloor Heating Controls

Controls regulate how the system operates, allowing users to manage room temperatures and heating schedules. The range includes thermostats, programmable controls, and electronic components that help improve efficiency and maintain consistent comfort levels across different zones.

Underfloor Heating Control Packs & Kits

Control packs and kits provide a convenient way to manage water temperature and flow within the system. These typically combine key components such as pumps and mixing valves into a single unit, helping ensure the system operates at the correct temperature for underfloor heating applications.

What is Underfloor Heating Equipment Used For?

Hydronic underfloor heating components work together to convert a floor area into a low-temperature radiant heat emitter. Primary boiler water is directed to a central manifold, where control packs blend it to lower temperatures suitable for floor structures. The distribution header then pushes this regulated water through continuous subfloor pipe circuits, distributing heat evenly across individual rooms. System controls monitor ambient room temperatures, signalling thermal actuators on the manifold to isolate or open specific circuits to maintain independent zone profiles.

How To Choose The Right Underfloor Heating Pipe For Your Floor Type

Selecting the correct pipe material depends directly on the subfloor structure, the finished floor covering, and the required installation flexibility.

Solid Screed Floors. Standard polybutylene or PEX barrier pipes are highly practical for traditional sand-cement or liquid screed applications. These pipes offer high flexibility, allowing installers to form tight bend radii around standard floor clips and insulation tracking without kinking.

Suspended Timber Joists. Installations using spreader plates beneath timber floors benefit from multi-layer composite pipes, such as AL-PEX (aluminium-polyethylene). The internal aluminium core allows the pipe to retain its moulded shape once bent, preventing it from lifting out of the metal heat-diffuser channels during installation.

Low-Profile Retrofit Overlays. Grooved insulation boards for existing floor renovations typically require specific 12mm or 16mm continuous barrier pipes. Engineers must verify the exact channel width of the chosen overlay panel to ensure flush pipe seating before final floor finishes are applied.

Installation Guidance

Underfloor heating systems require careful planning and installation to achieve effective performance. Pipework must be correctly spaced and securely fixed before floor finishes are applied, and all connections should be tested to verify system integrity. Controls should be configured to suit the property layout, particularly in multi-zone systems.

Underfloor heating is typically installed during construction or renovation, making early system design and product selection an important part of the process.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best underfloor heating pipes for residential use?

Pipes designed for water-based underfloor heating systems are typically used in residential installations. The correct choice depends on the floor type, system layout, and installation method.

How do you install underfloor heating fittings?

Fittings are used to connect pipework to manifolds and other components. Installation should follow the manufacturer’s guidance, with secure connections and pressure testing carried out before the system is covered.

What is the standard diameter for underfloor heating pipes?

Most underfloor heating systems use pipe sizes of around 15–16 mm, although smaller sizes may be used in low-profile systems.

What is included in an underfloor heating control pack?

Control packs typically include a circulating pump and a mixing valve to regulate water temperature and flow throughout the system.

Are these parts compatible with electric underfloor heating systems?

No, our components are designed for water-based underfloor heating systems and are incompatible with electric systems.
