Raising garage floor for changing into utility

[Benway]

Morning gents.

I'm planning on converting half the internal garage into a utility, in doing so having to raise the floor to that of the house. Have read a few posts in here I now have a plan. Attached is my plan, hopefully it's the correct way to go?

What do you expect the UFH to do?

 

[Benway]

2 options.

1. Bring a warm glow to the tiles and maybe the room.
2. Waste my money and time.

 

[ban-all-sheds]

2 is more likely.

I'm going with my plan is so awesome and correct no one needs reply?

If you want to waste your money, and end up deeply regretting your choice of heating system, I guess it's fine.

Pray tell us; why would it be a waste of money?

UFH.

Big mass of concrete.

Large thermal lag.

Uselessly inflexible and slow-to-respond way to heat a room.

Looks ok - providing your house floors are solid and not timber.

All floors are concrete.

Cheers.
