Combining Grant’s Aerona³ heat pump and Uflex underfloor heating for seamless operation
Designed with the property developer, architect and homeowner in mind, Grant’s innovative heating technologies work together seamlessly. This means that those working on new-build properties can save time on the project by having the full heating system designed and specified under one roof, using the best-suited products which result in a highly-efficient, compliant heating system.
Specifically, the Grant Aerona³ air source heat pump and the Grant Uflex underfloor heating systems work particularly well together to ensure optimum efficiency within new-build homes. When developing and manufacturing its wide range of products, Grant combines both its innovative and technical insight to develop heating technologies that will future-proof new-build homes for years to come.

Available in four outputs of 6kW, 10kW, 13kW and 17kW, Grant’s Aerona³ R32 air to water air source heat pump offers a sustainable form of heating. The Aerona³ is now a popular choice among those working in the trade due to its cleaner, more environmentfriendly performance, and its ability to lower a property’s overall carbon footprint. This will ultimately help to achieve NZEB building standards.
The Grant Aerona³ R32 13kW and 17kW models have also been recognised by Quiet Mark for their quiet operation. Quiet Mark is the international award programme validating and awarding low-noise, high-performance technologies, helping to deliver solutions to overcome noise pollution throughout the world.
In terms of heating individual rooms in new-build homes, the Grant Uflex underfloor heating system is one of the most popular choices of heating emitters. This is due to its versatility and ability to work well with a heat pump, as both technologies can run at lower temperatures while using less energy, therefore providing significant longterm carbon and financial savings for the property owner.
An ideal heating solution for newbuilds, Grant’s Uflex underfloor heating system offers convenient and highlyefficient heating. This unobtrusive heat source is embedded within the floor construction and is fitted as part of the floor’s assembly process, therefore causing no delays in construction. The pipework is available in PERT and ALUPERT and is positioned and clipped into place using Grant’s tracking and staple system once the flooring’s insulation and membrane has been fitted.
After this, a flow screed is laid over the top and allowed to fully dry before heat is introduced. As the system is designed for continuous operation with heat being supplied through the screed all day, this also means that the screed acts as a thermal store.
Both the Grant Aerona³ heat pump and Grant Uflex are included in Grant’s integrated heating packages for newbuilds, and can be controlled using the Grant Uflex 230V Heatmiser Neo Stats heating controls system.
Grant prides itself on working in partnership with those building new homes to ensure the most efficient Grant heating technologies are specified. This results in a fully-integrated heating system that delivers an efficient, lowcarbon and comfortable indoor enviroment for the occupants.
