UFH manifold position

[RichS]

When I eventually get started with this build of mine I intend to have wet ufh on the ground floor and also in the master bedroom on the first floor as this is above an unheated garage.

I am struggling to find somewhere for the manifold on the ground floor. Is it feasible to place one manifold on the first floor to run all the circuits. I have figured out a route for the pipework to get up there and the manifold would also be fairly central.

I appreciate it will use up approx 6.0m of the circuit pipework but I don't think I will have any circuits with which that would be an issue.

That's a yes then ?

Cheers Nick

Yup. Worked like a dream on the last one like it, and one loop was around 130m. ?

[RichS]

Even better

I'm thinking of going the other way with this- manifold in the GF plantroom with risers to the FF circuits (bathrooms only), bottle air traps on the top of the risers to ensure the loops stay full..

Nothing wrong with that TBH. ?
