can i ask how much it cost and the floor area?I used https://www.jk-gb.com/ to retrofit wet UFH in my refurb. They chased into the screed - did a great job.
You could talk to them about your floor construction and see what they recommend.
Yes its like night and day particularly if you have hard flooring like tiles etc.Retrofitting it honestly seems like more hassle than it's worth. Is wet ufh really that much better than modern rads?
Agreed, it's a huge upgrade.Yes its like night and day particularly if you have hard flooring like tiles etc.
We had it since our last house and i would not go back to a house with radiators.

I would say, who are these people and what is there experience/skillsetI've been considering the retrofit option, but reading around people seem to state that you lose too much heat downwards without at least 100mm Insulation. Has anyone actually fitted the retrofit methods (On slim insulation boards or milling the existing concrete slab for the pipes) and can comment on how it has performed since installing it? I can see some here are in the process of doing it, but no one who has done it and posted how they find it...

Cost of channeling, manifold, pressure testing and flex seal over the pipes was almost 4k.
I was replacing a warm air fed system, so i had no pipes or rads in the house.

What was the warm air system you're replacing like in terms of comfort and running costs? Did you consider getting a MVHR unit?Downstairs is approx 130 m2
