I watched the whole video and I would have normally skipped the part about wiring the tstat and feeding power. You quickly said I’ll hire an electrician to do that and I was like perfect no need to fast forward that part. I’m a licensed electrician and have done that part many times but I’ve never actually laid the flooring myself, so great video.

wiring the thermostat is just running wires through the wall to a breaker i believe. Should be included in the kit

When you do heated floors, you shouldn't use them for the first month they're installed. Even though the mortar sets in a day or so, it doesn't fully cure for heating purposes for about a month. Yeah, it's cured for room temperature in a day, though. If you use the heater before the cure is fully done, your tiles will start to split in about a year because your mortar bed has gone bad.

I wonder if living in a really damp, cool/cold place would make condensation happen in the area between floors, under this heating system, which is under a porcelian tile floor of a 2nd floor bathroom, and from that condensation, mold could grow?

@Golden Key Design TY for this response back. I was hoping it would help to heat the bathroom as well. Bummer. I wonder if there's a radiant floor system that would help to also bring ambient heat up into the air as well. I'll have to research. Thanks again for your responses back and congrats again on the great job. 👍

Don't those raise the height of the floor? How do you get the floor tiles to go under the drywall with the floor raised by those? I'm going to use the liquid level to level the floor and already worried about raising the floor too high that the tiles won't fit easily under the drywall. I'm installing a new tile shower and purchased the Schluter kit for the walls. I'll be installing new tile on the floor also and a friend suggested to install a heated floor
@GoldenKeyDesign

It does raise the height as all uncoupling membranes do. You should be removing the baseboard, so if you need to cut the drywall higher, you can. Then just replace the baseboards.

@GoldenKeyDesign Жыл бұрын
The ditra mat is about 1/4”, mortar is another 1/4”, and the tile depends but mine was also another 1/4” so the total is 3/4” tall which is usually the same height as most hardwood floors. Hope that helps!

The dude who put our under floor heating down in the bathroom forgot to secure the toilet pan to the floor and it now wobbles around. I am about to drill through the tiles to secure the toilet pan but I'm worried about getting a shock. What do you suggest? I have heard about strong glue too secure the pan to the tiles which would eliminate the need to drill however I would imagine this is only a temporary solution.
@GoldenKeyDesign
@GoldenKeyDesign Жыл бұрын
You are supposed to stay at least 8 inches away from the toilet flange with the heating cable to not accidentally melt the wax ring. So if installed correctly, there shouldn’t be any heating cable where you need to drill. But if you want to be safe, the glue should also work. Hope that helps!

Thank you! In this case I just added a bit of extra mortar under the tile to pitch it in toward the shower. But you can also pitch the surface the tile is being applied to when you do the water proofing so you don’t have to add any extra mortar when setting your tile. Hope that helps!

Sorry, but not including the part of routing the heat cable into the wall thru a recommended conduit and how that is installed is a major deficiency of your video for someone doing a remodel versus new construction . Also it is critical to start at that point so that you do not have any extra heat cable when going up to the thermostat.
