floor bricks

[jonba]

Hi,does anyone know what clay floor bricks have to be laid on if they are to be used with underfloor heating..Also how long would it take to lay around 50m2 in a herringbone pattern..many thanks

Flexible powdered adhesive. Follow the instructions with the UFH manufacturer for what to lay on.
As for how long to lay 50m², then I wold ask the question, "how good are you?"

Thanks for the advice.With the difference in the reclaimed bricks being as much as 15mm guess this is going to work out as expensive!Was hoping there was something when using mortar that could be added.
Just wanted an idea of time wise between a pro and a capable diyer.
Cheers

They are double fired clay,the type that were on the floors of old farmhouses.
