Help!: Use of electric underfloor heating with tiles

[jazzytrowler]

Hello i am new to this forum and i am a tiler in the Essex area. My client has just purchased a 200watt per m2 electric underfloor heating system. Are these systems compatible with Tiles? The client will be running the system with a floor tempreature of 30c. Will this play havoc with the adhesive or/and grout?

Im not sure if these electric underfloor heating systems are any good. I will report back if we go ahead with the install.


Thanks

Electric under floor heating is very common these days and as long as you use correct adhesives, grouts etc there should be no problems.

Yes that is corrct i am a DJ on the weekends but this needs funding. Are you a robot on robot wars in your spare time? Can you introduce me to Sir kill a lot? Im a big fan ; )

Thank you for the information though! I will check the correct adhesive and grout is being used with the underfloor heating manufacturer.

Out of interest ... how did you know i was a DJ?

200w/m is the warmest of heating cables and it's brilliant stuff. Make sure you use an insulation board under the heating system so that you don't lose any heat in the floor below.
