Under floor heating

Well the time has come to do the floor in the kitchen. First of course we had to de-camp the kitchen into the salon. After that there was was a little reparation to do to the floor where the window seat will go and then down with the insulation:

This starts quite easily but gets harder as you have to cut more boards to fit into door and windows. The board i'm using is a French product desinged for underfloor heating. Its EFISOL in 56mm thickness.
All in all it took about a day to lay the boards and then fit the insulation round the edge


 Next was the pipework. This was a kit off the internet and I have to say the quality of the kit was very good, a good branded kit, delivered next day and clear instructions. There are loads around but mine came from: http://www.theunderfloorheatingstore-onlineshop.com


 The kit comes with the manifold and all the tools to cut the pipe.


 Now ready for the screed..

  1. Under floor heating is a fantastic way to warm your house and an excellent alternative to standard central heating system which uses radiators. Under floor heating has many advantages the main one is that you can do away with radiators, this alone can make a room look a lot bigger and in general it just looks better and gives a room a much cleaner minimalist look.
