Underfloor heating system design?

Why would it be so low as you put it
A 2inch sand cement screed will crack like mad better make sure they put a lot of fibre in it

Liquid screed and more insulation is your best betv

Doesn't matter if the screed cracks we use a 28mm pug screed cracking doesn't affect the thermal performance of the screed

Be great if tiled

 

[markfxy]

we're talking 1st floor pug screed you wouldn't use 100mm upstairs, and yes it's great for tiling on :icon4:

 

[Gray0689]

I'll stick to properly insulating and a liquid screed anyday
But that's just me

 

[markfxy]

why would a pug screed be any less insulated?

Not for me

You wouldn't use liquid screed on the 1st floor though would you?

 

[Gray0689]

Yes as I have never done a joist house with underfloor upstairs
Always hollow core slabs

Not for me

New that was coming!, Yes you're right mate you should stick with what you know I think you're getting confused:yesnod:

I should have said last night that I meant timber floor.
