- Hi, I was just wondering if anyone knew roughly the cost of running electric underfloor heating?

- Hi I am in the process of fitting a new En suite out and have recently bought a 2m2 heat mat with digital timer. So far I have chased through the walls, ran the electric feed to a fused spur (3A – it's only 150w rating) and ran conduit to the floor ready for the […]

The floor was 'scarified' using an orbital floor machine with a rotating disc with points underneath. The floor was then treated with a primer apparently suitable for anhydrite screeds ( […]
- Hello, I’m new to tiling and to forums so my apologies for both if there are any etiquette failures! I’ve scoured the internet and can’t find any tangible advice on tiling on over overfloor heating. We installed the Wundafloor EPS 400 system ourselves (other half and I) and are concerned about the loops which sit […]
