Underfloor Heating - My House Build Pt:17

House update video! Turn on the CC for captions. This episode will cover the floor insulation, underfloor heating and dry screed. I started with hydro insulation, a bitumen primer and then the bitumen sheating. After bitumen, we installed the thermal insulation with heating pipes on top of it. Everything was covered in dry screed as the final step. Much more details in video subtitles.

Surely a full-length presentation of all videos combined would do well at the box office. Nice to win an Oscar for best documentary. Then the rest of the world can be as entertained as most of us, your subscribers, continue to be.

[@jesscneal]

This is such an incredible build. I bet it will be so cozy warm in winter with all that insulation in the floors. This will be the last standing house on earth probably 🤣

[@lignumchannel]

:) Yeah, I think I'm on a right track, a week ago, the temperature in the morning was -5°C and inside was 15° with no heating turned on for 2 weeks..

[@jorisstrickx]

This house is going to be a fortified bunker dressed up as a nice home. I have never seen someone put so much effort in the details, just to be sure of things that could and might happen in the future. And I thought I was bad. Better safe then sorry. And it seems like you know who to ask for the particular jobs. I'm curious for the final home decoration and style.

[@janklaas3242]

I think when somebody is gonna fart in your house, the house is heated at least for a week! Well insulated!

Im impressed that you are able to pump that dry pack mortar. The hose looked like a snake regurgitating it's last meal! 😄

Indeed, have pro's for dry screeding your floor, noth worth the hassle and the mistakes you can make for the price they offer you. Very well done, and you being a carpenter I suppose you come up with a solution to get the whole distributor with air vents in a nice cabinet.

[@MrUzaren]

Все как и у нас но отличие в последовательности. У нас сделают стяжку а потом маляра усрут ее в край что потом никакой плиточный клей не удержит плитку. Здесь же покрасили стены а стяжка в конце и кафель на девственно чистый цемент, красота. Я в восторге!

This has all been so interesting. Your home is going to be so much more rewarding to live in because of all of the blood, sweat, tears, and love that you both have put into it. Thanks, as always, for sharing it all with us.

[@marcustait79]

Old School plumbers are 100% correct! I had 3 attempts at getting my bathroom radiator to stop leaking with PTFE as I didn't have any hemp to hand. After rummaging in the shed I found hemp string on a sack of potatoes and applied that and it worked a treat!!!!🤓

[@lignumchannel]

Nice! Two months have passed here and so far no leaks detected.. I hope it stays this way!

[@SVanHutten]

Indeed, hemp combined with modern synthetic thread sealant works like a charm. Very useful when dealing with non-conical thread metal fittings, different materials and poorly manufactured fittings with loose tolerances.

[@jimurrata6785]

Hemp is legendary If you want a modern solution, Loctite PST. it's indicated for use in petroleum refineries and chemical plants. Withstands tremendous heat and pressure. Works fine with steam👍

Hi 👋 , that was a great job, well done, well worth the effort, I live in a very old moulin in France, I wanted to put in underfloor heating, my ex, just wanted log burner, put in, I’m now thinking of undoing some of my work that I’ve done back in 2013 14, and now installing underfloor heating, Good luck with your project,

[@simonr6793]

I wasn't too sure about the design of the building but i have to say now that it's actually built i love the whole thing, its definitely taking shape . Also i take it that the whole process of what you are doing is to make sure you're new home is carbon neutral and with that as cheap as possible to heat etc 🤔. At first when I watched you pouring the bitumen on the floor i actually thought you might have gone mad but then realised that the intention was to seal the whole floor from any moisture coming up from below causing a damp problem. Great idea and honestly I wouldn't even have thought of it. Especially when we are more likely to see that product put on the roof of a shed or outbuilding. I recon it took alot of foreign people by surprise seeing you doing that 😅. As alway's guy's 💯% 👍 🇬🇧.

[@lignumchannel]

Yes it always surprises me when I read how the things are done in the other parts of the world. The plan is to use as little energy as possible and what I can see during this winter, things are better than expected. When days are sunny, I can work in short sleeves all day and night with outside temperatures going to -5°c or lower. South oriented glass wall was a bingo. This bitumen water barrier is a standard here and probably was for more than 50 years, I know my grandfather did the same thing but they had to melt it in a bucket on site and it was a very dangerous process. Now it's safer to apply it but the solvents will knock you out..XD Thank you very much for following Simon!

[@traildad604]

wow, well done as always. I'm excited to see how it performs during a cold winter. Looks so well insulated and the in floor heat layout looks great.

[@lignumchannel]

Thank you very much! Next winter will be a true test and I hope all the effort and insulation will be worth it..

I put underfloor heating in the woodshop I built last year. It is so comfortable and very efficient. You ran your loops really close together - definitely won't have any cold spots!

Yes I hope I will have the same experience.. Depending on the area and screed thickness, I spaced the pipes from 10 to 15 cm apart.

[@James.......]

@@lignumchannel That'll work great. My loops are 12 inches apart which is twice the distance you have. You definitely won't have any cold spots because I don't with my spacing.

From earlier videos it looks like you already casted a concrete slab? Why didnt you put all isolation under the concrete slab and put the floor heating in the concreteslab you castedbefore you started with the walls? Seams like dubbelwork to me? Or is this the way you do it in your country?

[@sheldon...]

@9:00 - I see the introduction of a cable spool; did you not fancy continuing to fight with 100m of pipe by hand? 😆 Seeing all the extra insulation you're putting in, I assume you're aiming for quite a high energy efficiency target?

Imas li iskustva sa dvokomponentnim tekucim bitumenskim hidroizolacijama ? Moze li ona posluziti umjesto klasicne ljepenke ?

[@lignumchannel]

Nemam s dvokomponentnim bitumenskim ali sam koristio sikinu cement polimernu ispod bestonskih zidova i serklaža. Puno jednostavnija za nanošenje a prema specifikacijama, jednako kavalitetna. Samo se zamiješa s vodom u točnom omjeru i dva puta premaže četkom. Sad je čak prema pravilniku za građevinare po novom i preporučeno koristiti polimer cementnu ispod zidanih zidova jer takav spoj bolje podnosi posmična naprezanja za vrijeme potresa za razliku od skliske ljepenke.

[@pasqualesantoriello1558]

hello good evening, I was wondering why you lay the bituminous sheath on the concrete

[@lignumchannel]

To prevent any capillary moisture from rising. I insulated the outside of the foundations as best as I could but there is still a chance for some water to climb from the bottom of the foundations, that's why there is a hydro insulating barrier between all the walls and the slab, and also now between the slab and all the layers that come on top of it.

[@barthanes1]

She is the hottest construction worker I've ever seen on the job.

[@michaeld_aus_b]

nicely done. differently in details: for example in my house they added fibre to the screed instead of the rebar, and the water pipes were stapled to the insulation. Question: Why no hydro insulation under the stairs, so there might be water vapor coming up. I thought the water barrier must be one piece. Cheers

[@lignumchannel]

If you watch closely you can see that there is a gray layer underneath the bricks. I'm sorry but that scene was shot with a cellphone cos I forgot my camera that day so quality is not the greatest.. Anyway, that is sika polymer cement hydro insulation coating. The bitumen sheets are connected with that coating so there is no break in the barrier. I will insulate the area underneath the staircase later on with bitumen and also drainage waterproof foil. This area will be indoor garden and the soil will be flush with surrounding flooring.

This is a mix that has very little water and needs specialized mixer like this one in a video. It is usually done this way here. The house is ready for technical inspection at this moment but I have so much work that I'm forced to edit with a little bit of delay..

For a channel that prides itself on beautiful wood projects, it’s a shame your own house is so unenviromental! Loads of concrete, plastics and oil-based products; a missed opportunity to show off what could be made from your glulam wood.

[@Thoreaue]

He did say in his earlier videos that they changed their plans due to unexpected high wood prices ...

[@lignumchannel]

Unfortunately invasion of Ukraine and jump in glulam prices of more than 150% forced me to change the building structure to more classical (affordable) method. Original design was glulam and visible concrete so I share your opinion. In my defense, I tried to insulate the house to bring the future energy consumption down to a minimum.

[@MegaSureshock]

I'm sure someone has asked this before, but are all of these techniques part of the building code for that area or more of a "I can do this, so I will"? This build has been a pleasure to watch, such inspiring craftsmanship 🤌

[@lignumchannel]

This is a classic building technique in this area and most houses are built similarly but some things I wanted to do better. I wanted a few things extra during the build like insulating the foundations, a bit extra insulation in the roof, better bricks with better thermal and seismic properties etc.. Thank you very much for watching!:)
