Uponor range of underfloor heating products has been chosen for a private residence at the Elgin Road complex, to be installed by a self-building client.

The client had no previous experience in installing underfloor heating; and the idea that the Elgin Road complex should offer 'spacious, discreetly heated rooms where the clients are as comfortable as possible' lead to the natural choice of underfloor heating. They took advice and were supplied with all the necessary Uponor pipe, manifold and controls.

For self-installers who have not installed underfloor heating system before, it is of utmost importance to have some aspect of technical referencing to ensure the project runs smoothly. The client contacted a company who had experience with the Uponor range and who therefore could offer this advice; specifically on techniques, tips and one-on-one advice.

Underfloor Heating has without question experienced a surge in popularity in recent times, due to the education and exposure the pipe manufacturers have dedicated to this sector. Due to the flexibility of not needing to be regulated; self-builders are quickly discovering that it is possible to install underfloor heating system with relative ease.
