the correct adhesive method over under-floor-heating

[steve3]

thank you all for your welcome advice. the job is finished now and does look good but we have decided to wait untill the ufh is wired in and tested properly before we hand any money over. i have tested the tiles with a coin and can only just pick out a couple of places where there is a different sound and even then its not horribly hollow sounding. before they tiled they laid a slc over the mat and let it dry before they started tiling. i realy hope that it all works. i will let u all know when i have tested it fully. thanks again everyone. steve.

don't forget steve..there will probably be a commision time before you can turn the UFH on. This is usually 8 days or more...check with the mat suppliers.......

Hi, sorry for starting this thread up again but I googled the very question and came here, my questions isn't quite answered so thought save wasting time on a new thread I'd just bung it on.

I've just had UFH installed, it's the wet type, pipes and manifolds and all not electric.

I'm about to start tiling the bathroom but was wondering what's the best type of adesive and grout to use?

Do I want a cementious chemical reaction type drier (like cement for those reading who've not heard of the term before) or do I want a dehydrating type (like pva glue, the water gose and the adhesive goes hard).

THANKS!
