Auspex Radiant offers a quote service to help assist in the estimating and quote stage of an UFH project. Email your completed Project Estimation Form found on the Auspex website, or see your Reece branch. Include all requested copies of your construction drawings ensuring they are clear layouts with all dimensions included.

Upon receipt of all requested information there is a minimum 5 day reply with the following: Note: An Auspex quote is required if a full design is to be submitted.

• Project outline
• Estimated bill of materials
• Projected output requirements
• Sketch of assigned heated floor area

To conduct your own basic quote/estimation of the project the following process is advised:

Step 1

Determine the total heated floor area required. Calculate each room size and deduct any unheated floor area such as cupboards, benches, fixtures, robes etc. Once each room size has been determined, add all together to get a total heated floor area in metres squared.

Step 2

As an estimator’s guide for quoting purposes only, please see the following table as an example to establish what kit size is right for your project. This formula works on every 1m² requires 5.5m of pipe, therefore allowing a 10% factor for flow and return etc. (If all couplings in slab are to be avoided each circuit will need to be calculated separately.)

Step 3

Once you have your kit size established please consider the below factors that may be included in your quote:

• Electrical / wiring controls
• Boiler and flue requirements
• Gas requirements
• Zone controls
• Flow and return piping (Auspex Radiant MLP recommended)

If you require further assistance with this, see the Reece trained staff or contact an Auspex Representative.

The above allowances are calculated on each circuit being a maximum 100m / 20m² total. Auspex has the common sized manifolds as in bold above, if your job requires an in between size, manifold caps will be supplied for closing the unused ports.
