Hi,

the company that installed my UFH omitted to commission it. I found out about this step after tiling was done.

I want to take all measures in order to prevent any cracking/lifting, please offer me some advice.

Details of my setup:

- cement+sand screed laid April 2018
- around 20 sqm rectangular areas, expansion joints in the right places
- wood boiler fired up for one day in August, pushed 35-40 deg. celsius water in the system that day only
- porcelain tiles laid in October, half the house with adhesive spread only on the floor. After pointing to the tiler that it should apply adhesive also on the tile, he continued the rest of the house in this manner
- waited 3 weeks before turning the heat on
- now it's been 2 weeks since we turned the heat on. First couple of days the temperature was set to 35 deg. celsius, then I lowered it to 28 after reading some stuff over here.
- since it's a wood bolier, the temperature in the system varies a lot depending on my available time to load it.
