Hello dear ones,
we prefer laminate/vinyl throughout the entire house and specifically want to lay vinyl in the bathroom. Now, at the specialty store, we were rather advised against vinyl because of the underfloor heating. The vinyl would be damaged at floor temperatures above 28 degrees. Is that true?
Who of you has vinyl in the bathroom and how did you lay it? Floating or glued?
We wanted to lay it floating and then seal the edges with silicone joints.
Is that possible?

so 1. we get vinyl glued everywhere except in the bathroom (because of the barrier-free shower). 2. it doesn't matter if the floor covering is more durable, because normally you don't heat above 28° anyway...

Vinyl in the bathroom is possible, why shouldn't it be, it’s not going to be a sauna, right, but please fully glue it in wet rooms and seal the edges well. The floor layer should know what he’s doing; in Dk this is done a lot, but they even pull the vinyl a bit up the wall instead of using a baseboard, with a rounded cove.

if I have a craftsman who is better with tiles, I’d rather take tiles than have vinyl that’s not waterproof. But it doesn’t matter, this was about the temperature - since we don’t live in it yet, it’s just theory for me, but you probably haven’t set the bathroom temperature above 28° yourselves, have you...?
