[QUOTE="Robert19306, post: 794035"] Thanks for the replies please don't let this turn into a sigma vs Rubi thread. I have however noticed a decent amount of people say they have had trouble using the rubi for large porcelain? Anyone shed any light on it?? As to the screed preparation it has been down for 10 weeks with heating on for 4 now, it has been professionally moisture tested by someone from bal with a set on floor type tester (can't remember the name) and the Calcium carbide test both were showing the same results and it is ok for tiling. He recommend using two coats of Ardex p51 primer brushed on in opposing directions and possibly give the floor a slight sand to rough it up first. think his advice is pretty in line with what I have read up although I am always open to suggestions from the pros. As for underfloor heating i will try and have it commissioned for a couple of weeks after tiling as he also recommended no heating for 2weeks if not we will bring it on very slowly and monitor the water temperature bringing it up 5 degrees per week to operating temperature.
