Hi all
Would like to ask if anybody has experience of tiling onto the Polypipe Overlay wet UFH system.
Briefly the system is polybutylene pipes slotted into preformed grooves of a large panel system that are stapled together at the edges.According to the tech data sheet the panel is gypsum fibreboard.
The system has been laid on top of a 15mm ply that has been screwed onto another 15mm ply and does feel firm.
Polypipe say it's fine to tile directly onto the system using a flexi adhesive and grout.
Weber say use a fibre modified screed,a SPF and wide flexi grout.
Bal say backerboard,SPF and wide flexi grout.
Also when purchasing the tiles the manager said due to the heat using Bal fast flex direct would be the best option.
Possibly all are correct.
Would prefer to use the backer board method but would appreciate to hear how anybody else has tiled onto this system or if anyone can see any possible pit falls.
Cheers all
