Cormar Ultimate Sensation and Tredaire Ambience: combined TOG for underfloor heating
The combined TOG for Cormar Ultimate Sensation over Tredaire Ambience, worked against the UHMA underfloor heating rule.
Combined against the UHMA 2.5 TOG underfloor-heating limit. Under 1.5 also suits a low-temperature heat pump.
| Carpet | Cormar Ultimate Sensation (2.2 TOG) |
|---|---|
| Underlay | Tredaire Ambience (2.37 TOG) |
| Published sum | 4.57 TOG |
| UHMA in-situ correction | minus 1 TOG |
| Combined in-situ TOG | 3.57 TOG |
| Standard UFH limit | 2.5 TOG |
| Heat pump target | under 1.5 TOG |
Cormar Ultimate Sensation is rated 2.2 TOG and Tredaire Ambience is rated 2.37 TOG. Laid together the combination is what the underfloor heating has to warm through.
The published TOG figures add to 4.57, and even after the UHMA 1 TOG in-situ correction the pair sits at 3.57 TOG, 1.07 TOG over the limit. The carpet is fine; the underlay is doing the damage. Keep Cormar Ultimate Sensation and drop to a low-TOG underlay such as Duralay Heatflow for Carpet (0.75 TOG) or Duralay Technics 5 (0.56 TOG), which brings the combined figure back into range.
