OMNIE UFH SYSTEMS SELECTED FOR PORTHCAWL CHURCH RENAISSANCE Cilgal Baptist Church, at the heart of Porthcawl, is nearing the end of the first phase of an refurbishment project and a new underfloor heating system featuring the OMNIE Staple and TorFloor systems will provide a warming welcome for all. OMNIE’S Staples system, which has been used across a large proportion of the church as well as the office, is installed by clipping the continuous pipe runs to rigid insulation, itself secured across the concrete subfloor. The entire area is then screeded to make full contact with the pipework and achieve excellent levels of heat transmission. The specification switches to OMNIE’s versatile TorFloor system for areas like the kitchen, toilets and other parts of the church. The circuits are designed for a flow temperature of 55 C to give a return temperature of 48 C in order to maximise the performance of the condensing boiler. www.omnie.co.uk
