ᐅ Underfloor heating beneath the bathtub and shower

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!

I meant more that you cannot install underfloor heating beneath a shower tray made of plastic. According to the manufacturer, this is not allowed due to expansion and other factors, right?

Are you then only allowed to shower at 28°C (82°F) because of expansion?

With today’s design temperatures, I doubt that any expansion would occur here.
