Hello everyone,

my name is Achim, I am 40 and live with my wife and children in the house that we are currently extending and renovating. To be able to use the gained living space soon, I have a question that I would like to ask you. I registered here directly because I have already discovered a lot of interesting things about house construction in the forum while browsing.

In the extension, living area with kitchen, on 65m² tiles were laid until 9 days ago. The temperatures have fallen from initially about 14 to now 7°C. We wanted to start the underfloor heating from 11.1. I am now skeptical whether the drying time for the tile adhesive and the joints is sufficient at these temperatures. They could also fall further; the temperature has certainly not stabilized yet.

Should I heat the extension electrically? To what temperature should I bring the room?

I just turned on a 2000W radiator, but I am only worried that it will dissipate ineffectively... Alternatively, I could use fans, but they seem not very useful for regulating the basic temperature. Should I place one or more radiators? Is there a total wattage recommendation for this 65m² room?

Thank you for your advice!

Best regards Achim

How was the screed dried if the underfloor heating is not yet in operation? Or is it an electric system?

If you know the materials used, check the data sheets for processing.
