Hi,
I am trying to achieve a low floor build up including wet UFH over a new suspended timber floor in our barn conversion. The area is large, 21m x 8m. Having spoken to various UFH suppliers I have come up with the following:
I am planning to us expansion joints at 5m intervals. I have been told that I do not need a decoupling membrane with the No More Ply.
My target is to keep the overall build up excluding the chipboard subfloor to less than 50mm. I have investigated overlay panels but the seem to be a very expensive option and I am told that they do not perform as well as the PUG mix. I appreciate that what I proposing is a lot of work.
Please can I have your views, good or bad.
Many thanks, Captain Scally

- 22mm chipboard subfloor (already laid)
- 25x25mm battens at 200mm centres
- 16mm PEX pipe UFH nail clipped to the sub floor
- 8:1 PUG mix dry sand & cement packed around UFH pipes
- 6mm No More Ply
- Flexible tile Adhesive
- 15mm Natural limestone floor tiles
