Hello everyone,
firstly about my apartment. I am getting a retrofitted underfloor heating milled in.
I consulted the PCI advisor and he recommended after the installation
1. to prime the milling
2. then to level it with Nanocret R2
3. and then to prime the entire floor
4. to install edge insulation strips and
5. to level with Periplan Extra.
Now my questions regarding this.
1. I have to level the whole apartment, do I have to separate each room from each other?
If I separate with a wooden beam (at the door frame) for example, a 3mm height difference builds up compared to the next room. If I then change rooms. The living room would now be finished, I go into the hallway, I remove the beam and the living room is now 3mm higher than my hallway. Now I no longer have to separate my hallway from the living room, so my hallway will then level itself to my living room in the end? Or do I understand this wrong? In the end, I then basically have 1 level surface in the entire apartment?
2. If that is the case, how problematic is it if the living room has already partially hardened and I start with the hallway so that the hallway and the living room perfectly blend to one level?
3. Or do I have to separate each room from each other so that a gap basically forms in front of each room?
4. How do you manage to get exactly 3mm height, for example? I have seen several videos where they spread the material with a trowel or squeegee, how do they know that 3, 4 or 5 mm has now been reached?
Thanks in advance for the answers.
Regards tester
