UFH help! Wrong SLC used - TilersForums.com

Seriously don't go any further until you know what happening with this everbuild gear. It will only cost you more money in the long run.

What colour was the primer ?
Green or blue ?
Or was it white ish ?

Thanks guys. The primer was from the underfloor heating store that came with the kit. It was white and very running.

Do you suggest a procedure for getting it up to temp? How hot and for how long would you say run the heating for?

 

[Spacey]

OK I know what it is.

It the UFH visible or even still sticking up through the screed ?

Everbuild is a cheap diy make, I completely agree with @Spacey with this. This will fail and anything you do above it will be relying on a sound substrate which this is not. The builder has cut the wrong corner here I'm afraid.

If the leveller isn't flexible it won't survive.

Exactly!
Builders are not experts in 'everything' lol.

It's totally enclosed within the 708 now.

Crazy isn't it. If I didn't call Everbuild I would be none the wiser.
