Discuss Two seperate manifolds on two floors in the Water Underfloor Heating Advice area at PlumbersForums.net

Hi

I installed ufh on two floors. My question is can I run two manifolds on two floors with one pump and mixing shunt?

How do I go about connecting the manifolds together, do I run a T straight after the pump before it enters the first manifold or do I connect the second manifold after it enters the first manifold?
 
This is what it says on danfoss website about the mixing shunt.

"These are designed for 1 to 3 floor heating circuits and contain both a small mixing shunt as well as 1, 2 or 3 group manifolds"

According to this its possible. Or am I misunderstanding?
 
What sizes are the manifolds? If they're under 12 ports in total you could run the system off one pump and have a T after the pump going to each manifold.
Ones a 5 port and the others a 6

Should I put the pump upstairs? Do I run it with a T after the pump or from the end of the manifold to the beginning of the other.
