Self Level compound or board first? - Tile Advice

[Pritch]

Hi everyone .
I have a question to ask about my bathroom.
I'm about to install electric under floor heating in my bathroom and lay new tiles .
I've lifted the old tiles that were laid directly on top of the chip board flooring but the old adhesive is extremely difficult to get off.
Is it ok to install/ screw the 6 mm insulation board over the top of the old adhesive then use self level compound or should I self level, lay insulation board and self level again?
Thanks

You could skim over the existing adhesive , with a flexiable fast set adhesive and set your boards into that, or , as you say fibre reinforced slc first , when dry ,set your boards in tile adhesive, screw and scrim, fit ufh and latex over. Ready to tile.

As above if you have the depth if not diamond disc grinder with hood attachment and dust extraction will get rid of old adhesive in no time. You can hire them.

Take off any high spots and stick your Hardie backer down with a suitable trowel and screw, they carry out any levelling you need to do
