Hello,
What is the standard nowadays? We want to do without individual room controls and install a brine heat pump that is sized as optimally as possible and operates efficiently.
To achieve these goals, is underfloor heating nowadays also installed under the bathtub and shower? Does this cause any issues (for example, the bathtub not being installed on the raw floor but on screed or something similar)?
How have you solved this in your homes?
Thank you!

From a purely practical point of view, nothing. But you won’t find anyone who will build it with a warranty like that. I’ve also heard that you can’t install underfloor heating beneath a shallow shower tray because it can expand or shift, and the heating engineer wouldn’t do it.
The heating engineer would only install underfloor heating under the shower area if you have a level-access tiled shower... is that what you mean by warranty?

If nothing is installed under the bathtub, the heating is done by the loops positioned next to it.

If the heating pipes are not embedded in the screed, they obviously have no protection and could be damaged. That’s why I said no one would do it with a warranty, even if it might be possible and reasonable.
