How deep are the underfloor heating pipes?

[hajo]

We are planning to put up an interior wall and I want to attach it to the floor. How deep can you screw without risking screwing into the underfloor heating loops?

In the worst case, it could be quite high, so I wouldn't drill so deep that it's possible to screw.

A small idea: drill, for example, 10mm deep holes in a fairly coarse dimension (10mm?) and then place bolts that protrude this length at the bottom of the joists. The joists are pushed down by the pressure from the wall, etc., so no anchoring is needed downward, but the bolts ensure that the joist cannot come loose sideways... I hope you understand my poor explanation

Do you know where the loops are located, just don't screw there

If not, you can bring an IR camera to see where the loops are.

I think it's quite foolish to take a chance.

Normally, I think it's enough for the wall to just stand "dubbad," i.e., a short plug that keeps it in place.

Thanks for the answers!

Then it might be enough to attach to the parquet that I was thinking of leaving under the sill.

I think it might even be enough with double-sided tape.

It's just an advantage to lay the parquet underneath, that way the wall can be removed later. Cut the wall studs a bit longer and secure them between the ceiling/floor, and add a few narrow screws in the parquet so the wall stays in place

If it is floating parquet, it is not entirely correct to place a wall on it...

You can always glue using, for example, pl 600 or similar. It will hold like a rock. /J

Explain.
What does floating parquet mean?
Why shouldn't a wall be placed on it?
Do you mean it should be able to move?

Best regards

Floating floors should be able to move, yes. Most modern parquet floors are floating, meaning they are not glued, screwed, or nailed. What kind of floor is it?

Fantastic with this forum. I'm just about to raise 3 walls and have the same question. My parquet floor is floating, so I'm planning to cut into it. Nubb and pl 600 sound pretty reasonable.

Is this how carpenters usually do it?
