Hi,
I'm getting a new kitchen fitted shortly and I'm looking at the possibility of putting some poor mans underfloor heating in before it is installed. The floor is solid concrete, so I was planning on cutting out a channel and laying down copper pipes in the channels then tiling over the concrete.
I don't have any problems with the plumbing etc. but could there be problems regarding the tiling if I do this (perhaps the direct heat could cause cause problems?)?
Thanks a lot.
You're stark raving to be even considering this IMO. I have seen this on other forums where people have tracked their existing concrete or cement screeded floors to lay piping to provide UF heating. Complete lunacy.
