Re: Polished Concrete and Slab Heating 9Nov 28, 2010 7:51 pm Hi, Friends of ours have slab heating. They are in Wallan in Victoria. They run there heating for 6 ish months a year and last year there Electricity bill was in the $2700 (Thats the whole house including electric hot water. House size 20 sq.s I think Mrs may correct this later) They had to get 3 phase power. Issues they have had is the heating broke in master bed room... and unless they rip up the slab it can't be fixed. Frank The concreter will take and reuse. In my case I bought structural LVLs and scraped them back and used them as joists. 1 5150 yep, clearly mark where the infloor heating pipes are before drilling or nailing 1 6056 Building Standards; Getting It Right! is this for a residential dwelling or a shed?
