Hoping to install UFH and two people have said to me that i would find it difficult to get my home insured as some companies will not quote you if you have UFH.
Has any one any more information or experience on this?
 
We have UFH downstairs and the insurance company didn't even ask. Insured no bother.

Thanks,
Did a few online quotes etc and UFH was never mentioned, but really needed to double check!
 
The only time I've ever heard of plumbing affecting insurance costs is in the UK when we got a 5% discount for a combi boiler (as there were no tanks in the loft to freeze/leak).

I think we are with Zurich, BTW.

Good luck.

My thoughts exactly, well i never asked for their advice, they just keep on giving it!
