I have skimmed over the posts and from what im reading you are ALL wrong in some way or the other. Suggestion for the regular posters on here. As most know i run the FloorSkills training centre, we do sub-floor prep courses. If one of you want to arrange a 'DIYNOT' training day then i will...

the consumer expects this as miss sold . However as my above post you should not raise temperatures up and down fast.

Thats correct, providing you dont expect to be able to heat the flooring up by more than a few degrees.

Underfloor heating should not be turned on and off. It should not change its temperature by more than 2-3c over a 24hr period. Floorcoverings fail when it is turned on and off. So the answer to your question, it should take no time to heat as it should always be running at a low...

most water based compounds can only be used over a dry base ( below 75% RH) . A base takes approx 1mm per day to dry. As for teh concrete subfloor teh bouilder has supplied, well he should of been given a specification to work to. In domestic property in is normally SR2. SR is a reg that...

6mm plywood for flooring should be installed with ring shanked 22mm nails. Switch to RING SHANKED nails.

I have 4 PIR's. 1= Hall 2= Kitchen 3= Lounge 4= Dinning room. As for the other zones i dont think they do anything. The bell box is same age as alarm (10+ years) It is protected from rain as sits under the eaves of the house roof. I cant get a picture due to where it is mounted. I...

Tech question here then as what you say has got my brain working for the first time in a while ! (interested basically and totally off topic with my original question) So on a average street there is 3 phases and a neutral . My question is - is that neutral cable the same size as the phase...

thanks for the replies. I have not done this personally but seems very common with a lot of floor layers hitting pipes when using gripper that is pre-nailed to the correct BS standard for floor-coverings. I run a floor-coverings training centre and we often gets calls regarding the...
