Manifold and pump orientation.

[CotswoldDoItUpper]

Morning BHers…

 

In all of the pictures/diagrams I have found, the UFH manifold has the pump to the left when looking at it. I want to arrange ours so the pump is to the right, as in the pic below. The only issues I can see is that the thermostat thingy on the mixing valve would be at the back not the front.

 

Am I missing something?

 

thanks!

The manifold doesn't care which side the pump is on, the pump thermostatic valve kit is designed to either side also.

@JohnMo thanks! I’ve just found the instructions showing how to switch it around. RTFM.

Hello. I appreciate this topic is old (not sure if you'll receive a notification of my reply, or if others will see it has had a new reply).

I'm facing the same issue, and, based on the image above, would appear to have the same manifold.

 

@CotswoldDoltUpper.

Can I confirm? Were you able to reverse it (as in the image above), yet also manage to keep the mixing valve facing the correct direction?

Would you be able to send an image of what yours looks like now?

Is it possible to swap the pump to the right hand side, without any other negative/disadvantage?

 

Thanks.

(so in case anyone else finds this on Google years later, I can confirm that the side of the mixer & pump can be moved from left to right, without any form of compromise. i.e. The blending valve can be brought to the front also).

Whoever did it in the original image above, clearly couldn't read any instructions. (bizarre given they hadn't even fitted the flow and returns yet). As the earlier poster said... 'RTFM' (though in my case, I wanted to verify 100%, prior to purchasing). In the end I just bought one, and as the previous poster said, it is in the instructions.
