Hi all, first time poster here.

last week I laid loose wire UFH on top of cement insulation boards, and then laid mapei renovation screed over the top. I went back today, and all seems well apart from one area that has only just covered the loose wire and the tape that was holding the wire down. As a result this area of SLC has airlined on top of the UFH cable. The SLC has bonded well to the insulation boards.

Do you think I should lay another layer of SLC on top to completely bury the wire? Or is it OK to tile over the top?

BTW, I'm laying 30x30 gulf stone using mapei granirapid adhesive.

Thanks in advance
jim
