The UFH will not work if the cable is exposed ???? It needs to be covered by the tile which should have the adhesive as a full bed. Any voids will cause heat up issues.

cable is contained within 10mm of SLC so its not exposed

I used a floor tile remover tool to remove them. The photos I have posted show the remians of the adhesive on top of the SLC.

Oh looks grim! How long did u wait before u turned the heating on? Looks like the tiles never stuck to the adhesive as they have come up quite clean.

No had to use an angle grinder and a heavy duty floor tile removal tool.
