Brockway Beachcomber is a 100% undyed wool loop with a published TOG value of 1.59. Beachcomber is a 100% undyed wool loop pile rated 1.59 TOG, a natural-tone berber that works over underfloor heating only alongside a low-TOG underlay.

Using the UHMA rule, in-situ resistance is carpet plus underlay minus 1. To keep Brockway Beachcomber under the 2.5 TOG limit the underlay must be no more than 1.91 TOG.

TOG measures thermal resistance, so a low number means heat passes through easily. For a floor covering over underfloor heating that is what you want. A comfort underlay chosen for warmth underfoot does the opposite job and is the usual reason a heated floor underperforms after a carpet goes down.
