Hi All,

 

After some advice about turning on our UFH after tiling.

 

The screed was laid in December and the system was run for a few months during the winter. The tiles have been laid over the last couple of months and the final grouting was finished on Monday.

 

I have read lots of different information about turning the heating back on slowly and how to do it but I cant get my head around it, the tiler suggested waiting a week and then turning the system on and setting the room stats to 2 degrees above what they are reading and increasing it by 2 degrees per day - they currently read around 19 degrees (will normally run it at about 22 degrees)

 

The blending valve is set at about 38 degrees.

 

Your thoughts and advice are welcome:

 

Thank you, Wozza.

 

 

 

 

So after doing even more reading, my plan is as follows:

 

Set the blending valve to 5 degrees above the average room temps (we have 4 rooms - 7 loops)

Set the room stats to 2 degrees above the room temp (max 22 degrees)

Increase the blending valve by 5 degrees each day until I reach 40 degrees.

 

Any thoughts?

It’s the water temperature not room temperature you need to be concerned about so just turn the blender down and as you say increase by 2-3 degrees a day from 20 up to 38/40 or whatever it’s designed to run at.
