11.0 Floor coverings
The following points in particular should be noted:
1.
Use water based adhesive under all floor tiles.
2.
Any expansion joints should continue through to the hard floor coverings eg ceramic tiles
or wood.
3.
Use standard hair underfelt under carpets. The use of very thick underfelt or extra heavy
carpets will retard heating and reduce the system’s efficiency.
4.
Do not use rubber backed carpet underlay as this can result in the concrete “sweating”.
5.
Do not be lay floor coverings until the slab has been thoroughly dried and the heating
system has been in use for a minimum of 30 days.
6.
To ensure that all parquetry floors or other timber floor coverings are thoroughly kiln dried
to eliminate shrinkage. It is recommended that timber floor surfaces be laid whilst the
heating system is operating.
7.
When laying timber flooring, store the material in the room with the heating turned on. To
reduce the effects of shrinkage, the moisture content of the wood must not exceed 8%.
8.
