What are the Mulveys Under Flooring Heating Guideline?
Canadia Guidelines for installation over Under-Floor Heating 1. The maximum transfer temperature through the screed may not exceed 28°C. 2. The under-floor heating system should be a Water-based system, not electric matting as they may develop extreme temperatures when covered up. 3. If gluing down use only glue specified for use over under floor heating, If a liquid Damp Proof Membrane is not be used moisture content should be below 3% in the concrete. 4. If floating, TUPLEX underlay must be used, the concrete moisture must be below 3.5% 5. Keeping a stable Relative Air Humidity (RaH) is required to avoid excessive gap forming between the individual boards. Recommend RaC is between 45 and 65 %. 6. The warm water tubing needs to be installed in a fine or medium distance pattern, not exceeding a distance between the tubes of 500 mm. 7.
