Hello,
The thoughts are wandering from grooved chipboards and EPS boards to embedding the underfloor heating coils in self-leveling compound instead.
So, I have a small loft on a part of the house, 30-40 sqm.
Insulated wooden flooring that I'm considering laying waterborne underfloor heating on.
Currently, there is a chipboard floor.
What needs to be done and what to use?
Prime the floor? Moisture barrier? The room will be used as a regular room, not a bathroom or anything like that.
Reinforcement mesh attached to the floor? - material thickness?
12 mm coils? attached to the mesh? or special plastic holders for it?
Self-leveling compound - fiber leveling?
How high above the heating coils should it be/must it be/should it be self-leveling compound?
I want to achieve a floor that is as low as possible but at the same time shouldn't crack...
On top, parquet flooring.
 
Why putty at all? You have a wooden floor. Use products that are made for it and let it stay at that.

Hi Stefan1972, got that advice from the plumber. Maybe he earns more then?
Thanks for the answer.
 
Yeah, I don't know, I'm not an expert. It just feels silly to start slapping and casting on a wooden joist if there's no reason.
