Brockway Gatsby is a 100% wool twist with a published TOG value of 1. Gatsby is a 100% wool twist and, at 1.0 TOG, one of the lowest-resistance wool carpets Brockway publish. It leaves generous underlay headroom over a heated floor.
Using the UHMA rule, in-situ resistance is carpet plus underlay minus 1. To keep Brockway Gatsby under the 2.5 TOG limit the underlay must be no more than 2.5 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.
