Limestone tiles and UFH question.....

[stretch]

Just tiled and sealed and grouted and sealed 15 sq metres of limestone tiles.

Plumber wants to know how long before he can fire up the UFH - it's a wet system

Many thanks!

I always say 14 days and then in small increments (5°)per day until full temp achieved and then back down .

It should have been bought up to temperature slowly giving the screed chance to expand and bought down again, have you fixed any un-coupling membrane ? I fear you could be looking at trouble ahead.

I've just done the tiling. The screed has been down about 6 weeks already

Yes but was it commisioned before tiling ?

How deep is the screed ? 6 weeks drying, was there any heat in the place ?
