Brilliant video again, but can you do one that includes all the dig out and MOT Type 1 installation and all being whacked down, cheers steve Sorry, ignore me,I wasn't paying attention, you've already done the floor prep
Would it have made sense to put the pipes through out all the kitchen and put insulation below the kitchen units? That way when you fancy a kitchen refurb you wont have cold spots?
Dear Expert, Thank you for the brilliant explanation. My question is whether we can install new laminate on top of old ceramics while using a wet floor heating system. Could you please guide me on whether this would prevent efficient heating conductivity, increase energy consumption, and how it might affect moisture levels? Additionally, what steps can I take to control these factors? Best regards,
Unfortunately not the footage was all done in Timelapse but at 09:06 minutes you can see him checking with a tape measure and adjusting those tripods Mick points out and the laser is top right of the screen on the floor. All he does is get a finished screed height from our marks we give him from our existing finished floor height. Hope this helps but happy to answer any more questions. Thanks for watching. 👍🏻
@@mrabuilders6723 ah, was wondering where the laser was! What would you say the max liquid screed depth should be? 50mm? My floor as the insulation under the concrete slab. There is 15mm difference in floor level so i was going to lay 35mm in some areas, with a max depth 50mm.
@@MR54TSN it’s my understanding from when I did our floor that you can go thinner with a liquid screed than a sand based screed. From memory you should be fine with a liquid screed like in this video for your depths you mentioned An exiert may correct me if I’m wrong 😂
Hi Jeff. If that was recommended I’ve got every faith that it’s what he would have done so I’ll trust that this system didn’t need 6 bar pressure test. However, I shall ask the question and give you his answer if it’s any different. Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Depends what you mean by do it yourselves mate. We have a team of qualified lads in various trades to get stuff done for us including electricians. Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Great job lads but I think it’s unnecessary to have underfloor heating when you have all that insulation 2 Vapour barriers concrete and the flooring on top.
@@mrabuilders6723 ohhh wow ok I get it, I assumed that would only heat up the floor and not the actual air space also ? I thought there was going to be a couple of radiators installed. I’ve learnt so much from you guys so by me asking questions I learn form your answers. Great bunch of guys 🙏
No worries mate we don’t presume that our viewers are all trades people so we try and explain it as best we can. We are more than happy to answer any questions for you no problem at all. Thanks for watching. 👍🏻
@@davesmith729 ufh is essentially a massive radiator. Because the surface is so large you can drop the flow temps significantly. Which is much more efficient.
Hello mate, please watch this video and call the people that are featured within it, they will sort everything out for you, just remember to tell them where you got their number please. Take care and good luck with your project. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-K4orQaNvomY.html
Hello Tom, yes mate, it has to be done. The screed fellas do it in order to effectively turn the floor into a pond so the liquid screed doesn't flow out everywhere. It's not a DPC in its true form, it's pierced all over the place by the clips that hold the pipes in place. Hope that helps?
@@mrabuilders6723 so I’ve laid the black membrane onto the block and beam, then celotex is done and taped, UFH going down at weekend, so it’s already on top of 1 complete sheet.
@tommendoza1812 from a true 'DPM' point of view, that's that done, the sheet that goes on top of your celetex is for the purpose of the screed, not to stop moisture coming up from the floor.
Probably it is down to the customer's preference how high the floors should be. One would argue that 2400mm is the ideal amount of insulation, but hey you have to account for many other factors not just how warm it can be.
@@shizzleinthenizzle not saving a penny by doing down more are you with the cost of excavating - Labour, digger, skips/grab ! Wanna be taking out the least amount possible !
