    Electric floor heating - what should I expect.

    Matts are 160 watts. I placed 10mm Insulation boards underneath them and they have about 10mm of laytex screed on top. I definately noticed a difference between the floor parts that were not heated (that area was cold). Don't think the problem is due to the floor scensor either, as the power...

    Electric floor heating - what should I expect.

    Guys, I have the mats down and laying in about 10mm of screed. I have four mats totalling 28 square meters. After the system had been on for 35 mins, the floor was no longer cold, but also didn't feel warm (like the demo systems they always have in the tile shops). What should my expectations...

    Megaflow - Why so expensive to install.

    Discarding the price of the megaflow, the lowest I've been quoted for installing one is about 1600 quid (inc VAT). This is in KENT (bromley area). Is this the best I can hope for?

    6mm latex screen poured to 10mm

    Help. I've poured a latext screed to a depth of 10 mm, the bag said 6mm, but what the hell I though!!! It's cracking like there's no tomorrow. Would it be doing this anyway, or should I expect worse to come?

    Large fire hoods

    My electrician will not install my spot lights without firehoods (they are large (L505 W185 H172), but for the life of me, I can't find any (not quite true, I found some fire cages, but they have to be put in from above, which is not an option - above is a new tiled floor). Can anyone help me?

    Latex screed is cracking.

    No and no. The builder was aware of the underfloor heating, but I'd be amazed if that made a difference to his choice of screed (cheapest wikes had to offer no doubt). I'll certainly check with the tile supplier on the cement however. I bought the insulation boards from uheat of the phone and...

    The insulation was loose laid and are EkoBOARDs . The heating matt has not been turned on (not wired up yet). The tiles are Stonker (ceramic porcelain mix) and are rated for outside use (I think they are pretty tough). The grout will be flexible and I will mix it with a further flexible...

    I've just laid a latex screed over electric matt underfloor heating (about 8-10 mm). The matt sits on top of insulation boards (10mm), which in turn sits on top of a concrete floor). The latex screed has cracked in multiple places and if I press hard with my foot, I'm not certain, but I think...

    What is part P?

    We have all the cabling in place, from the boxes in the kitchen to dangling wires in the garage (where the fuse box is located). Still, nothings moved for a while and I'd like to know I have the option to get this guy out of here and not be held to randsom with the part p threat.

    What is part P?

    I have a wayward electrician, but my builder wont get rid of him because "I won't be part P certified". I this nonsense. Surely I can just get another compliant electrician to finish the job off.

    Wiring in underfloor heating.

    The electric matts are already laid out and all of the parts have been provided. All this guy needs to do is wire in two thermostats and make the connection to two spurs. Is 330 Quid + VAT taking the ****?
