So Ive seen this ProWarm ProFloor pre-routed chip and was wondering if anyone had has any experience with it? I'm giving the bathroom a total revamp and the existing floor boards will be getting replaced anyway.
The plan is, take up the old chip, insulate between the joists with celotex or similar, lay the pre- routed chipboard, fit the spreader plates and run the UFH pipes. Ive read in a few places now that No More Ply has much better heat transference than other cement boards like hardiebacker so that seems the obvious choice, they just advice you use 9mm ply over the ProFloor but wood is an insulator so would be counter productive, hence the NMP. Then, would just be a case of tiling over as normal.
You think this is the best way of going about it? I was just unsure about the amount of deflection with them not been solid boards. I guess noggin it out would help with that which I will probably do anyway.
Thanks In Advance
