Installing electric underfloor heating - Step by Step Guide

Re: Fitting electric underfloor heating.

I hate the tape on the mats!, I think they should just do away with it.

Do you guys trowel out the SLC by eye or use markers? I tend to go by eye over UFH unless the floor is really bad then I use markers.

Did you see polishtradesman's post the other day with the metal rails that he lays level and then brings the slc up to it? Looks like a good idea.

Re: Fitting electric underfloor heating.

Nice one Bri,

I am just about to lay insulation boards prior to UFH. Unlike yours mine have come without instructions so curious whether I should butt joint or leave expansion gaps. Most info on web suggess that you leave expansion gaps and fill with Flexi ady.

What do the experts think?

Thanks in advance
 
If in doubt, leave a 2mm expansion joint. May be worth contacting the manufacturer or supplier to see what they recommend.
