Brockway Solar is a 80% wool, 20% nylon twist with a published TOG value of 1.56. Solar is an 80% wool, 20% nylon twist rated 1.56 TOG. The nylon content adds durability, and a low-TOG underlay is needed to clear the combined limit over a heated floor.

Using the UHMA rule, in-situ resistance is carpet plus underlay minus 1. To keep Brockway Solar under the 2.5 TOG limit the underlay must be no more than 1.94 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.
