[QUOTE="Ed-Wood, post: 554296, member: 37873"] [B]ProDave:[/B] the UFH is my biggest concern (in terms of practicability) for all the reasons you mention. Practicability is not always my wife's first consideration (especially if 'her friend's got one and it's brilliant'...). Rest of the house is gas fired central heating on a reasonably modern condensing combi boiler. Plus a log burner in the lounge. But the kitchen is the coldest room as a big chunk of it is extended out from the main body of the house. [B]Murdoch[/B]: I'll fit the floor when I do up the kitchen - at some mystical point in the future. Even if I don't, the expense of a few metres of cable and 15 minutes drilling out some joists won't seem like much of waste, especially compared to the alternative of ripping up carpets and floorboards above at a later date. [B]Binky:[/B] floor is solid concrete. I'd add as much extra insulation as I could get away with - not too much of concern if the final floor level is raised by a few cm. [/QUOTE]
