Brockway Rare Breeds is a 100% undyed wool with a published TOG value of 2.05. Rare Breeds is a 100% undyed wool carpet rated 2.05 TOG. On its own it is near the combined limit, so it is a poor match for underfloor heating even with the lowest-TOG underlay.

Using the UHMA rule, in-situ resistance is carpet plus underlay minus 1. To keep Brockway Rare Breeds under the 2.5 TOG limit the underlay must be no more than 1.45 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.
