[QUOTE="Sharpend, post: 455142, member: 17152"] Sorry Luke I've lost the trail here a little. Are you saying that the pipes for the lower floor, come down a void from manifold and then are sunk into concrete slab to each radiator? If so then that to me is a real poor design, copper and concrete are not a happy mix, I had a bungalow whereby the 15mm copper pipes were run through the slab, these were protected with the hessian but unfortunately the hessian had been disturbed when concrete was poured thus resulting in a pin hole leak on the pipe, although it took a number of years to show. I thought the whole point of the microbore was so that the pipes could be run more discretely without the need to bury them? :C [/QUOTE]
