When making a heated floor, it is important to choose the necessary type of wood. The wrong choice is fraught with gaps, huge gaps, cracks between the boards. When buying a tree for a warm floor, be sure to follow its shade. Scratches, cracks and cracks will not be noticeable on the parquets of their dark wooden species performed, for example: oak or tick.
To stick to the floor with heated parquet, it is necessary to use plastic brands of the adhesive base. This is recommended by manufacturers of parquet boards. The best choice will be a one -component brand of glue. But to make a choice, of course, of course you better listen to the advice of professionals.
For a warm floor, a five-centimeter screed or a gypsum screed for two to three centimeters will fit well. Do not forget to process the parquet board and wipe all the seams between parquet boards. To speed up the drying process, the floor must be heated. But do not turn on the heating at the time of laying the basis of the parquet itself. Heat the floor only after two to three weeks after applying a cement screed or a week after using gypsum.
Turn on the heating system, increase its temperature every day by three to four degrees. But make sure that the temperature does not rise above twenty -four degrees, keep such a temperature for three weeks. Then lower the temperature, daily by three to four degrees. This is very important, otherwise, having set the parquet on such a screed, it is quite possible that over time you will have to remove it and redo it all.
As soon as the temperature reaches fifteen degrees, measure the humidity with a chemical way. During such measurements, it is important not to spoil the entire heating system. Humidity is measured using special, expensive devices. The necessary humidity of the installed screed depends largely on the composition of the screed itself.
The moisture content of the cement screed should not exceed one and a half percent, the gypsum screed is not more than three tenths of percent. Only when the humidity of the screed becomes like that, you can start installing a parquet or parquet boards. Install the parquet, the teams of the installers will help you, which now, during the crisis, has divorced very, very many.
Himing a team of builders, do not look primarily at the money that they ask for their work, pay attention to their professional knowledge and qualities, ask where they have already worked, ask for examples of work.
