I am renovating a cabin and have started to look over the floor in the section that will become a bathroom and will also house a 500-liter slingtank plus a freshwater tank. It seems to be double-layered tongue-and-groove planks under the masonite and the frame marked with thicker lines on the sketch are heavy joists supporting everything.
The electric boiler/slingtank will likely weigh close to 700kg when filled. Should it be sufficient to reinforce with 22mm chipboard on top of the existing floor, or should I consider another solution and, if I lay chipboard before the other sheets (50mm grooved polystyrene for underfloor heating is to be laid in part of the room), where should the vapor barrier be placed?
