UFH costs quotes

[gc100]

Hi,

 

I've got a 155m2 house to build and I'm getting quotes of around £4K for the UFH part (and then the ASHP/fitting on top). Does that sound about correct or expensive?

 

Thanks!

Is that supply and fit? Or just supply? Need to compare apples with apples ?

What components are being quoted for? Manifolds? Pipe?

thats a lot more than I paid for just supply.  Wunda supplied ours - 145m2 of UFH @ a cost of £1,213 + VAT (May 2016).

Depending on spec you should be around the 1k for material only. Controls can add a bit depending on what you want. Laying UFH pipes can be done yourself and employing a plumber to connect manifold at a later date.

This was supply and fit:

 

Supply & Install: Under-Floor Heating to Ground floor (Based on a Clip/Staple & Screed system) Includes: • 1 x 9-port Manifold • 1 x 7-port Manifold • 16mm UFH Pipe • EK16 Pipe Connectors • Pipe Clips/Staples • Edge Insulation – to be installed by others • 5 x Room thermostats. • 6 x Zone Actuators • Installation is to install pipe and manifold. Pressure testing of pipework. Labour & Materials = £3,895.00 VAT @ 0% Primary pipework. Pipe and installation from heat source to manifold. Labour & Materials = £300.00 VAT @ 0%

I am a bit lost with the spec. 

1x 9 port, 1x 7 port manifold and 6 actuators?

I haven't used 1st hand but a lot of people on here have used wunda ufh.

Just to add, this price is installed and supply

Is this 155m2 ground floor? 

We paid £4K for ours supply and fit, which was around 154m2 , the fit though was only the laying of the pipes and connecting to manifold and air test which cost just over £1k , we still had to do everything else connected to it which I didn’t realise at the time, I expected them to come back to install everything else, personally I think for £1k we could have done it ourselves as we had done on our previous build but I thought I was saving hubby a lot of hassle when in fact they did the easy bit!

I saw that too. @gc100 when they state “manifold” is that just the brassware or are they also including the pumps and blending valves as they can add £2-300 per manifold depending on spec.

I have no idea to be honest. I'll have to go back to them.
