OK. The ISP lost their ATM uplink to BT's 20C network. Ow.

But it's back, I have the email and it looks like:

Marmox 20mm and EasyPanel 25mm [1] are *very* similar in price.
PEX pipe and manifolds are comparable to the rads/convectors I would need.

So - insulation vs insulation+UFH is comparable. Either is 2k more expensive
than doing neither (what I originally intended).

I think it would be worth getting a sample of the EasyPanel for
examination - after I run a crude heat loss calculation...

[1] The PEX pipe is 16mm, so even in 25mm, some of the pipe will have a lot
less insulation between it and the floor slab. 20 vs 2

Cheers

Tim: the heatloss down to heat loss up ratio is entirely dependent on
the ratio of insulation underneath to isnualation above `(flooring,
carpets dogs/cats sofas etc)

50mm is probably the minimum for a screed floor but this should work
well enough.
