Hello, we are currently considering where to install the heating manifold on the upper floor. Our concern is that the control valves may cause noise, so the manifold should not be built into a wall directly adjacent to, for example, the bedroom or children's rooms. What are your experiences with this?

You will only hear noises at the heating circuit manifold if there is air in the system. Although they are not generated there, they are the loudest at this point due to the minimal insulation.

Hello,
We have the heating manifold on the upper floor in the hallway. There are no noises audible.

Kind regards,

Andreas

All the circuits for the floor start from the distribution box. So, before the distribution box, you might have an area where the cables are very tightly packed. That’s why the room where the distribution box is located will definitely get a bit warm. For me, who also likes to sleep with an open window in winter, having the distribution box in the bedroom would be a no-go, but it would be well placed in the bathroom.

How much does that actually affect the temperature? Is it really noticeable?
If so, I should probably talk to the installer again myself.

They don’t make any noise. We have 4 units distributed throughout the house (2 on the ground floor, 2 on the upper floor). There is an additional one for the second heating circuit manifold for "hot" radiators (towel warmer, attic, garage, etc.).

Yes! My brother has the heating circuit pipes running directly through the bedroom and is very frustrated about it. We have the heating circuit for the upper floor running in the hallway.
