    That is probably where a lot of your energy is going. With UFH it needs to be fairly balanced all the time to keep a constant heat. Cut down to 20C and see if that helps, as you are trying to reheat a floor mass all the time.

    This is so interesting! We had no clue. Excited to test this out too.

    OK. Try this, it may work. Reduce the UFH to 20C with a setback overnight by 3C, but do not try to use it like a conventional system. You can set a daytime setting to reduce the temp, but stop just using a couple of hours daily.

  • Thanks everyone. This is turning into quite an exact science!

    It is not science, it is knowing how to work things!! Make notes of what you change as you can always go back on the settings if there is a problem.
