DIY Water Underfloor Heating - Part 1

This is Part 1 of the DIY Water underfloor heating series.
I had previously posted a full-length video showing the whole project from start to finish but found it to be too long for 1 sitting. So I am reposting it as a three-part series.
This also helps to break-up the stages of the project, so it's easy for others to dip and dive into the sections of the project they are most interested in.
=======================================================
If you are new to the channel, this is a quick summary about me and my project:
I worked in an office job for over 13 years and decided to switch careers at age 30, to follow my passion in construction. I have limited experience and am mostly self-taught.
I'm renovating my own home, which is a 1930s semi-detached house. My mission is to make it as beautiful and comfortable as possible, without spending a fortune.
As a result, I am, doing it all myself and learning along the way.

Thank you 🙏🏻

Thanks man, I'll soon renovate my own floor, depending on your tutorial here, you might be able to convince me to put floorheating in my floor too :)

[@scott_diy]

That's ace! To be honest it wasn't that expensive to do it myself but it was hard work

@@liamdavis9017 sorry for getting back to you so late, I missed this notification. It only code about 2.5k so that’s pretty good for a job that’s usually £10k plus. It adds value to the house too

Thanks for all the valuable content ❤ - do you know if you can use Alkathene pipe (the blue or black stuff farmers use to connect to a trough in a field) ? It’s difficult to find videos on that!

[@scott_diy]

I’m not sure actually! But it’s a great question. I hope someone can answer it for you

[@FE59FE59]

Google tells me it's an old pipe standard and replaced by MDPE pipe. I'm not an expert, I'll use HDPE pipe to run water to my garage which is seperate from my house. This seems like a better solution to use outside under my driveway. What are your plans with this pipe?

[@iamthemobey]

Loving the video. Did you put a steel in where the wall was taken down?

[@iamthemobey]

Ignore that I can see the steels now. I got a little worried for a second there!

[@albinfiskare]

no insulation underneath the slab?

Is this floor going to be heated by gas burner or electric?

[@scott_diy]

Gas 👍🏻

Great video. Except for the super annoying electronic music. All of the music in this video is super annoying!! 🤮 I had to mute the sound every time there was music! Plese consider just having the ambiet sounds play, instead of that electronic atrocity. Even speed-up ambiet sounds are ok.
