Hydra Posted August 12, 2021 Posted August 12, 2021 Howdy folk, Just reading through the kingspan advice for insulating above a concrete slab and I make note that they suggest a batten under door transitions (understood) and toilets / stairs. As i'm doing a downstairs WC with a hidden cistern i'm just curious how folk would arrange or attach a batten in this situation. a) Running perpendicular to the toilet like a Joist. b) Within a notched out bit of the PIR (Perhaps a square box?) c) Lengthways along the toilet and fixed to the wall behind the toilet lengthways? Not seen a single video on the tinterwebs that covers this and would like to avoid a bouncy toilet. I'm all ears! Cheers
markc Posted August 12, 2021 Posted August 12, 2021 (edited) Flooring chipboard or 18mm ply set into the insulation. It’s just something to spread the load and give you something to screw into. or a wall hung pan and you don’t need the batten under the toilet … but you would be needed under the frame unless solely supported from the wall.
