Hi. Got to tile my parents kitchen/ utility room as part of a building project for them. I do quite a bit of tiling as part of my general building work but never used insulation board yet. Just wondering if anyone has used THERM-A-MAT insulation board available from E-bay shop at £3.99 a sheet. Was about to order Fastwarm product until i saw this. Any experience anyone?
In fact any advice on whether installing 6 - 10mm board over existing concrete and screed slab but with no UFH, will have much insulating effect on finished tiled floor? It's about 35m2 of flooring(31x45 trav. effect Padova 80 laid brick style) and whilst not all of it would need UFH (only 11m2) it will make the tiling job easier and quicker if they don't install the heating. not to mention the added cost of the UFH itself. I must admit I hate tiling over heating cables. So as a compromise i suggested putting these boards down. Any advice or comments welcome.
Thx:yes:
