Pipe under screed floor.

Dig deeper my friend you will find the answer and no it's not good practice to screed over pipework with push fit fittings attached. Cheers kop

Thanks.

Where I live we are allowed to bury couplings, and I think we can even bury fittings for heat pipes. That said you will almost never see a legitimate heating journeyman do so. With pex pipe there really isnt a need to as it is flexible and cheap. We always cover our pipes with insulation if they are to be in concrete except for radiant systems.

When you guys do radiant, how often do the builders put nails/screws through it? We had one job, pex in climate panels. The guys putting the hardwood floor down put 7 nails through the radiant in just one room.

Usually we put 90psi of air on the pex when we know they will be workig above it. This way they know when they hit it and can mark it for us to fix.
