    You can use any screed under underfloor heating. (providing moister is correct and not run to hot)

    Also to note that you can not use a surface DPM over underfloor heating or on subfloors with rising damp.


    SCREEDS-

    Ultraplan Renovation
    = Fibre Reinforced compound (water based) Can be used on wooden subfloors
    Latex plan trade = Normal latex compound but with very high strength. Can be used under DPM

    PRIMERS-

    Eco prim T = water based primer. Can be used on absorbent and non-absorbent floors. Can be mixed upto 1-4
    Prim Grip = Primer has built in grit.Resistant to moister and wear (can be laid in advance of screeding) USE= Non-absobent subfloors

    DPM

    1k Turbo = no mixing and sets in minutes. No waste as can put lid back on.
    Mapeproof ESM = 2 part epoxy. PURE EPOXY RESIN has high penetration compared to other epoxy's
