    New 12 zone install help for newbie!

    New 12 zone install help for newbie!

    Good pointers thank you. Would you for example make a small wc off the hall a zone or pick it up off the hall? If I zone every room on the ground floor and split the large areas into two zones I exceed 12 zones? Have a look and tell me what you think?

    New screed floor, sealer?

    I'm not even sure if fresh clean screed needs sealing, that's the first concern really? I picked up mapei flexible adhesive suitable for wood I thought. The pine 18mm floor boards have had most of the varnish worn off, the two appliance slots have 18mm chipboard which had adhesive on before but...
