Pipe Clips, Tacker Guns, Decoilers and Pressure Test Pumps Explained

Underfloor heating installation accessories help make the system easier to fit and more reliable once installed. Pipe clips and clip rails secure pipe to the floor build-up, a tacker gun speeds up clip installation, a pipe decoiler helps unwind pipe without twisting, and a pressure test pump is used to check for leaks before the floor is finished.

Accessory What It Does When You Need It
Pipe Clips Hold UFH pipe in place on insulation boards or suitable fixing layers. When clipping pipe before screed, levelling compound or floor covering installation.
Tacker Gun Installs pipe clips quickly and consistently. For larger UFH projects or frequent professional installations.
Pipe Decoiler Unwinds pipe coils smoothly and helps reduce twisting or kinking. When laying long UFH pipe circuits from coiled pipe.
Pressure Test Pump Pressurises pipework so leaks can be checked before the system is covered. Before screeding, boarding over or commissioning a heating system.

Best Uses for Underfloor Heating Tools & Accessories

Pipe Fixing Use barbed pipe clips, pipe clip rails and tacker guns to keep UFH pipe secure and correctly spaced during installation.
Pipe Preparation Use cutters, reaming tools and bending springs for cleaner pipe cuts, better fitting preparation and smoother pipe bends.
System Testing Use a manual pressure test pump to check underfloor heating and plumbing pipework before the floor is finished.
Timber Floor Installations Use aluminium spreader plates to distribute heat in joisted, suspended or timber floor underfloor heating systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What tools do I need to install underfloor heating? Common UFH installation tools include pipe cutters, reaming tools, pipe clips, tacker guns, pipe decoilers, bending springs and pressure test pumps. The exact tools depend on the installation method and floor build-up.
What are underfloor heating pipe clips used for? Pipe clips secure underfloor heating pipe to the fixing layer, helping keep the pipe layout in place before screed, levelling compound or floor boards are installed.
Do I need a pipe decoiler? A pipe decoiler is useful when laying coiled pipe because it helps reduce twisting, kinking and installation time, especially on larger or professional UFH projects.
Why pressure test underfloor heating pipe? Pressure testing helps check pipework and joints for leaks before the system is covered by screed, boards or floor finishes. This is an important part of UFH installation and commissioning.
What are aluminium spreader plates used for? Aluminium spreader plates help transfer heat from underfloor heating pipe across timber, joisted or suspended floor constructions.
