Default Floor tiles - to seal or not to seal ?

We've got "wood effect" porcelain "planks" which are going to be laid in
a herringbone pattern apparently but the question is, should either the
screed or the waterproof chipboard need sealing (SBR I'm guessing) to
keep tile adhesive workable for longer?
Also, where the screed meets the old hall/doorway and goes to chipboard
should I create a junction between surfaces to allow for the different
UFH zones and different heat-up/expansion rates between floors etc.


Apologies for duplicate post earlier tonight.
Thunderbird on one machine went tits-up and I searched high & Low for
this message or evidence of it being sent and it had gone.
Now I've found and deleted all data files related to uk.d-i-y (repair
folder didn't work) it's sorted it's self out and here it is.

Thanks all for replies to this one and the one posted a few hours ago.

Cheers
Pete
