Underfloor heating on concrete slab

[Aparky50]

have a large concrete screed with underfloor heating in pipes which has been down for over 12 months
It requires tiling but heating will not be connected for a further 6 weeks
Could anyone advise me if it would be safe to lay the tiles before heating up the slab?

Thanks

UFH would need to be commissioned first.

As above!
What would be the scenario if you had a leak!
If it could be pressure tested you could then lay a decoupling mat before tiling.
What type of tiling are you having and what advice has your contractor given?

Here, almost all ufh,
Are not commissioned.
The pressure is carried out with compressed air.
In the event of a leak, the manometer confirms it.
Here, we are a bit crazy.

And are you sure it's a concrete screed!

John, is it a question, or an exclamation?

I have an electric heater that I can connect to wet ufh. I connect it up to manifolds and then leave it on until the floor has reduced to an acceptable level for tiling.
Where are you in the country?
I think there is a good business out there hiring these out. Mine is 6kw and has heated a 80m floor.

So used to using an exclamation mark ! that it went in instead of a question mark ? - that's me corrected in English grammar by a foreigner !
