Warm Tiles DIY Installation

Sunday March 23, 2008

Andreas and I went to the house on Sunday afternoon with a planned installation of 3 sets of electrical under-tile heating systems. We had previously requested the scratch-coats to be completed for this installation.

We show up and those omni-present drywall taper guys are sanding away but they quickly left. Perhaps they only do a half day on Sundays...or they don't like working when the homeowners are around!

Anyway, first thing we notice is that the scratch-coat (only on the upper 2 bathrooms) is not quite a thick as we would have wanted. There goes our plan to install the heating systems!

Turns out that it is a blessing in disguise. The basement system took us several hours to install and it was enough for one day.

Here is the view down basement hall from the rec room - bathroom on the left with the instructions stapled up!


Ta-daaa Here is the finished installed heating system. Andreas took the picture standing in the shower....Looks fairly easy, huh.
