Underfloor heating

[py rookie]

Hi peeps quick question... Can I tile on to under floor heating?straight on the floor? Or do I need some sort of matting?

 

[J Sid]

What's the subfloor? Tile type? Area? Electric or water ufh?

 

[py rookie]

Water ufh,screened,has been on for aover a month. Topps own oak effect porcelain tile 200m+600m roughly 6mm thick

 

[J Sid]

If 6mm thick then uncoupling membrane, otherwise shouldn't need uncoupling, but u can afford it then I would as its an extra insurance.
Make sure you put movement joints in

 

[py rookie]

OK do you mean expansion joints?

 

[J Sid]

Expansion joint will follow through from the subfloor. If you have none then movement joints across doorways, round perimeter and across large runs of 8mt or 40m2 area

Does the OP mean the plank tiles are 200mm X 600mm?
