RADIANT SYSTEMS & DOWNLOADS

THE RADIANT FLOORHEATING SYSTEM IS INSTALLED INTO THE VERY FABRIC OF THE BUILDING

It is therefore very important to plan how it is to be installed into the building before work begins. This is most critical with Timber frame buildings, because a lot of pipes will have to 'pass through' joists and beams. With planning however, these routes or accesses can be made ready during the erection of the timber frame. Click here for a step by step guide.

Radiant will prepare a colour coded CAD layout of all the floor heating pipes. You will also recieve a detailed installation manual covering every aspect of floorheating installation and operation. All your components will be delivered in an itemised and easy to understand form. We can even arrange for one of our engineers to make the delivery, so that you can recieve optional on-site training. For particular applications we also supply innovative insulation materials for floating and suspended timber floors.

There will always be certain floor structures or site difficuilties that require an innovative solution. Radiant Floorheating Systems have all the solutions to ensure a comprehensive package every time.

BENEFITS OF THE RADIANT SYSTEM

  • The Radiant System gives you a 'pipe-in-rail' fixing system for simple one person installation.

  • Easy to lay, shape retaining multi-layered pipe made especially for Radiant by Unipipe

  • Pipe coils supplied at the correct length for each room or area - no calculations required.

  • Easy compression fittings at the manifold for fast, secure and leak free connections.

  • Simple to follow CAD layout and instructions for all the floor circuits.

THE RADIANT SYSTEM

Why we use 16mm pipe for our underfloor systems

In simple terms it all comes down to basic hydraulics and the resistive nature of liquid passing through a pipe. The pump creates the pressure to circulate the water, but the pipe will offer resistance to that circulation. Over a fixed distance a small diameter pipe will have more resistance than a larger diameter pipe. So pipes with a diameter of 10-12mm must be kept to a shorter length than pipes of 16mm. Which is fine for small areas such as a bathroom, but when installed into a whole house, these shorter pipes would require joints or more manifolds points. However, 16mm pipes can be used for much larger areas without the need for any joints. Extensive research by Radiant Heating Solutions and our European trading partners has shown that 16mm pipe is the optimum size for all underfloor applicatinos. This is born out by the fact that an increasing number of our competitors are switching to 16mm pipe.
