anyone have any experiences to share about diy installing electrical radiant floor heating? i found a product online. it’s a mesh that is laid in a thinset layer, just before laying tile.

Only been using it for a year and a half and as a supplemental source. I've been satisfied with it, the electricians have been satisfied, but most importantly the clients have been happy. Because of the choice of sizes we have been able to avoid the costly custom mat route. Remember it just needs to be warm where they walk.
thank you for your input.
There's an FHB article a couple/three issues back on it, too.
I want to say we had a bit of discussion on the article in the "about fhb" folder, as well.
I have several of the NuHeat brand mats installed under tile floors in my home. I thing thae "mat" version was less expensive than the mesh version.
Installing these is easier than laying the tile. Comes with fairly complete instructions.
laid one last month -- make sure you get enough self-leveling mix -- $30 a bag and to cover my area was 6 bags - inexpensive, a HD internet purchase -- can't wait to use this winter -- think the dogs will enjoy sleeping in new addition with the 'Garden Room Heated Floor' they send good directions and a video. very easy to do -- all the best - Dudley
