Anderson Floor Warming

Pipe Fixing Systems to suit all types of floor construction
Anderson Floor Warming has an extensive library of different floor construction details, including screed floors, concrete, battened, timber suspended and floating floors. We offer assistance on choosing the most suitable pipe fixing method to suit your floor construction and can provide CAD / PDF details on request. Technical advice on the most suitable floor screeds and coverings for your application are available on request.

	Pipe in Rail
	The Pipe-in-Rail system can be used indoors and outdoors and laid in screed or concrete construction. The pipe clip rail eliminates the need for wire mesh and is suitable for 12mm to 22mm o.d. Pex pipes. Rails can be laid on any type and thickness of insulation.

	Pipe-in-Board
	Pre-formed plastic castellated boards retain the pipe at variable centres without the need for specialist tools.

	Pipe-in-Staple
	The Pipe-in-Staple system provides a much greater degree of choice of pipe layout and spacing. Anderson Floor Warming’s staples are available for Pex pipes 16mm to 20mm o.d and will fix in standard, medium and high density rigid board insulation, eliminating the need for expensive laminated boards. Automatic staple guns are available for self installers.

	Pipe-in-Plate
	This system is most suitable for timber joist and battened floors. The aluminium grooved plate retains the pipe and diffuses the heat into the floor. The plates are available in twin or triple grooves for 400 and 600mm joist centres. Plate systems are ideal for first floor timber joist construction and for renovation on timber floors.

Pipe-in-Twist Clip

Twist clips screw into medium and high density rigid board insulation, fixing Pex 16mm o.d pipes. Twist clips, like staples, can be fixed into any position, which provides a much greater degree of choice of pipe layout and spacing, without the need for specialist tools. This makes twist clips a popular choice for budget conscious builders for smaller areas. Twist clips are often supplied with Pipe-in-Rail systems as additional fixing for pipe runs to and from the manifolds.

Slotted Board EPS 16mm System

This system is for laying on load bearing floors only, giving exceptionally low construction height. The system is made up of grooved insulation panels, 16mm thick with an aluminium heat distribution plate, 0.5mm thick factory fixed. The heat distribution plate covers the entire surface of the insulation panel. The grooved panel, turn panel and feed pipe panel are made of high density EPS and provides extremely high resistance to short and long term compression.

“Mixed Systems” Fully Integrated System Packages
Anderson Floor Warming supply a wide range of Pex pipe manifold connection packages.

Heating Primary Connection Systems consist of joint free, large bore Pex pipe, equivalent to standard metal pipe sizes, self ducted in conduit or insulation, supplied from forged brass manifolds, connecting boiler to underfloor manifolds and radiator/towel rails manifolds.

Radiator Connection Packages consist of joint free Pex pipe, self ducted in conduit or insulation, supplied from forged brass manifolds, connecting manifold to radiators. The most popular domestic systems consist of underfloor heating on the ground floor and radiators on first floor. The connection packages allow easy integration of both systems.
Hot & Cold Connection Systems also consist of joint free Pex pipe, self ducted in conduit or insulation, supplied from forged brass manifolds, connecting hot & cold primary manifolds to hot & cold secondary manifolds, with built in isolation valves to each appliance.

Pex pipe manifold connection systems have the following advantages:

	Pre-designed complete packages speed up and simplify installation.
	Flexible pipe from reel uses fewer joints.
	Flexible pipe can be threaded through drilled joists, thus avoiding notching.
	Self ducted pipe in conduit can be laid in solid walls and floors without the need for purpose built ducts.
	Corrosion and scale free plumbing pipe.
	Low noise self ducted pipe, greater frost resistance.
	Flexible joint free pipe reduces maintenance costs and condensation.
	No need for soldering, bending or threading tools.
	Light and easy to transport & store.
