Concrete backer board for tile
I would like to install ceramic tile over radiant floor tubing.
Can I do this with acceptable results? 1. Install PEX on top of existing subfloor and use furring strips of appropriate thickness between loops. 2. Install 1/2" concrete backer board on top of furring strips. Heat transfer plates and thermal mass not an issue at this point. I am more concerned about structural integrity, i.e., will back board be strong enough to support tile without flexing or cracks in either tile or mortar. -- ================================================= Franz Fripplfrappl |
