Heating system question - new build

[daveb]

Hello chaps,

I class myself as having good electrical knowledge and good at my job. However, heating systems is something I have little to noooooo experience on. Anyway, I digress....

I've been asked to quote for a new build today and the only thing that fears me is the heating system. From what I can see, each room is having a room thermostat -something I've not seen before. My own house is relitavely new and only has one controller in the downstairs hall.

I suppose my question at this point in the quote comes to what I need to keep in mind for pricing? Ie does each room stat need a three core and Earth run to it back to the hot water tank cupboard where all the manifolds are? What else - a three core from the boiler to the hot water tank cupboard?

Help would be appreciated -go easy on me as the job doesn't go ahead until December so have plenty time to read up on the type of heating system it is and how to connect it but would like to cross the first bridge now re which cables to rough in and to where (to quote for at this stage)

Thanks peeps

Well, the good news is that I'd asked the potential client if he wanted me to quote for the UFH parts and he's said not to quote for this at this stage. Happy days

Thanks all again - I'll be back if I win the job
