- Martin Allen, an approved Uponor installer, introduces the new manifold range by Uponor and shows you how to correctly fill an underfloor heating system. The key steps include:
1) Firstly, isolate the system if it is already connected using the isolation valves on the manifold.
2) Put a hose pipe onto the flow bar (top) manifold and turn on the water to pressurise the hose.
3) Turn on all flow meters to full and shut (using the valve caps) all the pins on the bottom bar of the manifold. please note: do not use actuators as these tend to be half-open when new.
4) Connect the bottom tap onto a hose into a bucket of water and open the valve
5) You are now set for filling. Firstly open the top tap on the manifold to pressurise the top bar. Then working from left to right open the valve cap- you should see the flow meter drop to show the flow. Then keep an eye on the bucket- you are looking for a steady stream of water into the bucket with no bubbles or microbubbles.
6) Shut that loop and open the next, repeat this for the entire manifold.
7) Switch off of the bottom valve first then the top valve.
8) It is recommended to then turn off all loops and open the 4-way valve to full and reconnect the hose pipes, but in reverse. This will ensure water is pushed through the pump and stops an airlock around the pump.
9) Once all completed, you now have a mains filled system ready for testing. This must be done before laying anything over the pipe system.

On promotion Video you should at least install protection tubes (red and blue ) between heat loops level and collectors and make that straight. Looks very unprofessional.....hmmm
Hello - I’ve had 4 ‘experts’ come around to try repair my Uponor 4 port manifold. None of them can resolve the problem. I think it’s because they don’t understand how it works. My thermostatic head appears to not operate properly and the pump over heats and switches off. Know anyone in london who can help me?
Hello sir can you have work i need pulmbing job please
Nu poți face un videoclip și cu traducere în limba Română. Thank you.
Followed to the letter and not a sign of any air. Many thanks for posting the video.
I purchased this manifold and later saw this video for temp valve and pump kit. They seem to be made for this manifold. I would like the same ones from the video or most similar. Do you know brand/model of this kit?
Hi Martin
how do you know which is the hot water flow into the blender before the red and blue shot off valves are on ??
cheers
Rotometers are on supply side...
How come none of your western manifolds have air vent valves on them?
western? Uponor is finnish company, twat.
