We did try at the time but as the company went bust, they said we would be right at the back of the queue of creditors... It's a shame as they'd been going 30 years and and we did do our homework. However, like a fair few other companies they didn't survive the changing of the government schemes in the mid 2010's. Thankfully we have 2 wood burners so we can heat downstairs, but the original cheap laminate flooring I put down to try and help is now looking a bit worn so I thought now is the time to either a) get the original system working or b) bite the bullet & replace it with one that does.

Thanks all for your help, I really appreciate your time & comments.

Not a drawing as such - but photo?

Thanks will give that a go. The house is pretty well insulated - under the floor, cavity wall and loft so it should work. However we left the ufh on for 3 days and it couldn't get it much above 16c.

Thanks for responding so far. This was a system that replaced an old gas boiler and rads. Trouble is, the company that did the installation went bust a couple of months after, so we've had no support. The install was insulation between joists then spreader plates above that. The radiators upstairs work great, but the ufh doesn't heat the room - we've left it on for 72hrs + and it made little difference. If you lift a floorboard you can feel the heat - but it isn't enough to heat the rooms. So is there a material that I can put down instead of the boards that may work?

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help with our issue. We had a heat pump installed which runs upstairs radiators and downstairs underfloor heating (suspended joists). The radiators work great, and the ufh works - but we can't feel it through the floorboards. We have the thinnest laminate flooring I could find but that hasn't helped. Can anyone suggest something to replace the floorboards with that would allow the heat through ( need to keep the floor level the same). The floorboards are the original ones that were put back down over the ufh and are 15mm thick. Thanks 🤞
