Routed floorboards under a wall?

[linkan77]

I will be laying grooved floorboards in my hallway and the bathroom that I am renovating. I will be tearing down the wall between the bathroom and the hallway. Can I then lay out all the boards and pipes, etc., and then put up the wall?
The pipe loop will also go under the wall.

Yes, you can do that, I've done it without any issues. I have tracked foam sheets with aluminum plates that I laid laminate flooring on top of and then a wall on that.

So you're going to have the same loop in both rooms? If one of the rooms is going to be a bathroom, it might be good to have two separate loops. It could be useful to have some heat in the bathroom even during the summer, which might not be necessary in the hallway.

Thanks for the answers, it becomes so much easier to categorize them under.

I'm still wavering between whether I should have one or two loops. I will have tiles in the bathroom and in the hallway, so I think I will run some summer heating in both spaces. But it would be nice to be able to control the rooms separately.

I would have installed separate loops, we have them in every room regardless of the room's use. We even have 2 loops in the hallway, one outermost by the door and one further inside the house.
