When you are working on an underfloor heating installation project, every extra minute adds to the overheads reducing the profitability for you. At Ambiente, we’ve invested in developing tools and materials that are designed to save significant time on your next UFH installation, speeding up project completion and reducing overhead costs.

Our latest innovations, the Ambiente T16 TraffiPipe® and SpeedGun, are two products which will optimise your UFH installations, making the process faster and more efficient while ensuring a secure and precise UFH pipe layout, you can rely on.
 

Introducing Our Ultra-Flexible Five-Layer PERT Pipe: Ambiente T16 TraffiPipe®

Here at Ambiente we always aim to set the standard in underfloor heating, and our latest underfloor heating piping, the T16 TraffiPipe®, is no exception. Built with a five-layer PE-RT (Polyethylene of Raised Temperature Resistance) construction, this pipe offers unmatched flexibility, durability, and efficiency. Additionally, the T16 is available in coil sizes of 120, 240, and 500m, allowing installers to choose the perfect length for their project needs.
 

Why You Should Be Using Ambiente T16 Traffipipe® When Installing Underfloor Heating

The T16 is the most flexible underfloor heating pipe in its class, as proven by extensive testing. It’s built using a composite PE-RT base material, known for its durability and flexibility. This makes it ideal for navigating tight corners and complex layouts, speeding up installations and reducing the risk of errors.
 

Detect and Address Potential Damage to the Oxygen Barrier With Traffipipe®

 

Green = Go

The pipe is safe and ready for installation. There’s no damage to the oxygen barrier, so you can proceed without worry.
 

White = Assess

The first layer of green has been scraped off, but the pipe’s structural integrity is still intact. You can continue with the installation, but it’s a good idea to double-check for any further damage to be safe.
 

Red = Stop

The oxygen barrier has been compromised. This means the pipe is exposed and could lead to problems like brown, sludgy water and reduced system efficiency. In this case, you’ll need to repair or replace the affected section before continuing. This system allows you to detect and address any damage to the oxygen barrier immediately, preventing common issues like brown, sludgy water and system inefficiency. This in turn, prevents costly callbacks and ensures you leave your client with an underfloor heating system they can rely on.
 

Lifetime Warranty and Cost Efficiency

The T16 comes with a lifetime warranty, ensuring long-lasting reliability. This warranty is maintained when using the SlimPul® pipe fittings, which are specially designed to be compatible with the T16, reducing wastage and speeding up repair time.

The T16 also features two-way meter marking, allowing installers to measure and cut accurately, minimising material waste. Additionally, the WrapToSave system reduces pipe usage by 5-10%, saving time and materials while streamlining the pipe layout for an efficient installation process.
 

Jam-Free Clip Installation With Ambiente SpeedGun

Our premium piping solutions are only half the story; no underfloor heating installation is complete without securely fastening the pipework. The Ambiente SpeedGun simplifies this fiddly and time-consuming process.

The key features of our Ambiente SpeedGun allows for a faster and smoother underfloor heating installation:

Non-Stick SpeedClips: Don’t lose anymore time to frustrating Tacker Gun clip jams. The SpeedGun’s non-stick SpeedClips glide effortlessly, ensuring a seamless operation from start to finish.

Comfortable and Efficient Design: Lightweight with an ergonomic handle, the SpeedGun reduces hand strain during prolonged use. It accommodates both 40mm and 60mm clips, with a large capacity that minimises reload interruptions. The quick and easy reloading system keeps you productive.

Transparent Access Hatch: The SpeedGun features an easy-access door to the SpeedClip chamber for fast troubleshooting and maintenance, ensuring you stay on schedule.

Walk-and-Tap Installation: The SpeedGun’s intuitive design allows for walk-and-tap installation, making the process quick and effortless.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pipe diameter is best for maximising heat output in residential UFH systems?

16mm pipe, like the T16 TraffiPipe®, offers an optimal balance of flow rate and flexibility for efficient heat distribution in most residential settings.

How can I minimise the risk of leaks in an underfloor heating system?

Using high-quality pipes with visual damage detection, like the T16 TraffiPipe®, and secure fittings, combined with proper pressure testing, significantly reduces leak risks.

What’s the best way to handle tight corners and complex room layouts during UFH installation?

Utilising highly flexible pipes, such as the T16 TraffiPipe®, makes navigating challenging layouts easier, reducing bends and potential stress points.

How often should I pressure test an underfloor heating system after installation?

Pressure testing should be conducted immediately after installation and again before the final floor covering is applied, to ensure system integrity.

Can using the correct pipe and clip system reduce overall installation costs?

Yes, using systems designed for speed and efficiency, such as the Ambiente products, reduces labour time and material waste, lowering overall costs.

How do I prevent airlocks in an underfloor heating system during the initial fill?

Employing proper filling techniques, using air vents, and ensuring adequate system pressure during the initial fill helps to prevent airlocks.

How can I ensure even heat distribution across different zones in a UFH system?

Correct pipe spacing, proper manifold balancing, and the use of a well-designed control system are essential for even heat distribution.
