Then the boiler technician should have had the heat load calculated before making his offer and not offered 15 cm in the first place …. If he skipped the calculation then I would expect in return that he chooses the smaller distance without annoying me.

Alternatively, it would be possible as we did: helped a bit, if he shows you how to do it you can do it in 3 minutes too ….

Then it is a "standard" planning without proper fundamental planning. Higher supply temperature and/or intended for fossil energy sources (since you are getting a heat pump, the former). You will not achieve 30/26 temperatures with it, so it will be less effective. That is about 3 meters of pipe more per sqm. For 120 sqm, rounded up, about 400 m. A 500 m roll costs between 400 and 500€. Installation might take 2-3 hours longer. The heating circuit distributor will be bigger, the number of ERR probably remains the same. So real additional expense in € still under 1,000€. But you should also get a proper heating planning with calculation of the room-by-room heat load (considering the temperature you want - which you probably have not specified yet). HOWEVER, you will have to pay the price your general contractor sets for you. And he will certainly calculate very well for himself...

Yep, but even if it gets a bit more expensive: do it! The underfloor heating is a component you don’t want to replace after 20 years...

One does not exclude the other. You can have the heating load calculated and design for 15 cm accordingly. In that case, for example, at 35 °C flow temperature instead of 30 °C and 10 cm spacing ;)

Yes, if you want it as inefficient as possible, always gladly ☺️

It probably went like that :( I just wanted to say that one does not exclude the other.
