Which pipe type should I choose

PERT-AL-PERT

5-layer with aluminium core. Higher heat transfer, holds shape when bent. Our recommended choice for screed and overlay systems. Available in 12mm and 16mm.

PERT EVOH

No aluminium core — more flexible and easier to handle on site. Slightly lower heat transfer. Good for high-volume installers. 16mm and 12mm available.

Underfloor heating pipe — what you need to know

Choosing the right UFH pipe is one of the most important decisions in any wet underfloor heating installation. We stock 16mm and 12mm pipe in PERT-AL-PERT and EVOH variants, plus pre-insulated MLCP for connecting your heat source to the manifold.

16mm vs 12mm pipe

16mm is the standard choice for most installations — it delivers enough heat output to serve as a primary heat source and allows loop lengths of up to around 105m. 12mm pipe is better suited to low-profile overlay board systems where a slimmer floor build-up is essential, with a maximum recommended loop length of 80m.

PERT-AL-PERT vs EVOH-PERT

PERT-AL-PERT has a 5-layer construction with an aluminium core, giving better heat transfer and shape retention. EVOH pipe has no aluminium layer — it’s more flexible and easier to handle on site, making it popular with high-volume installers. Both are suitable for screed and overlay systems.

50-year warranty

Our WRAS-approved PERT-AL-PERT pipe carries a 50-year manufacturer’s warranty.
