Tiling a floor which has Under Floor Heating

Champ · 2024-01-22 08:51:57

Hi, A query for you folks who have experience with under flooring heating please. Some sites suggest placing an "Anti-Fracture Mat" on top of the screed before installing the tiles. Would this be considered an optional extra if you have funds to spare or in practise is generally not done? Thanks.

Not always done, but a good idea if you can afford it.

Just put it over expansion joints on the screed, even at that it’s optional
