Can Climaboard® be fitted in tiled rooms with tiled upstands?
Yes it can, and it looks very attractive too. Given the choice in countries where tiled floor are the norm, it is desirable to use a reduced height upstand of about 25mm (1 inch) to allow for better air flow and easier floor cleaning. Q17. Can anybody install the Climaboard system? A very competent DIY expert should be able to cut Climaboard® to size and attach it to a wall paying particular attention to cutting mitres into any corners that are not absolute right angles. Such a competent person may even be able to connect up the plumbing to the hot water supply. It is however recommended that this work be undertaken by a qualified plumber or heating engineer. Any electrical work such as installing thermostats, programmers, switches etc. must be done by a qualified electrician or heating engineer. Any gas work such as installing and connecting a boiler must also be done by qualified person, for example CORGI registered if in the UK.
