![]() As far as the goes, it’s the exact same PEX, with fewer loops, spaced a little wider. So instead of the whole concrete floor having an embedded tube in it, now we’re into essentially a radiator that radiates into the subfloor, then radiates into whatever the actual flooring is on top of that. But to recap, the subfloor has transfer plates on it. We talked about it a little bit in the last video Mike was in when we were doing the floor of the basement. Mike is back today working on getting the floor of the sunroom tied into the in-floor heat. He’s been installing the in-floor heat out in the sunroom, so we’re going to go take a look at some of that real quick before getting back to tearing up this floor. Definitely a very slow going thing, and I still have a lot to go. It’s been an hour and a half and I’ve removed nine tiles. Then I can come in and remove whatever’s left with the pry bar and hammer, which seems to be going faster a little faster. Instead of using the chisel and trying to get underneath the cement board and prying it up, I am coming down from the top and basically jackhammering this into bits and pieces. And I have come up with a little bit of a different strategy. So after about an hour and a half, this is how far I am. At the very least I can get the tile out of here, and then we’ll have to deal with the cement board later. The widest thing I could find is a two-inch scraper, so I’m going to see where this gets me. But the cement board will not come up without completely disintegrating, so I spent the morning going around to a few different stores looking for a wide floor scraper, which would be really nice for this. The hope was that getting a pry bar underneath the cement board would allow you to pull the whole cement board up in one big piece. The tricky part is that the cement board is then adhered to the subfloor. So we have a slate tile on top, which is set down to a piece of cement board. Donavan had hoped that the floor would come up in sheets, but that’s not the case at all. In his absence, I have been tasked with removing this floor. He’ll be back on Wednesday, and we’ll finish removing our two load-bearing exterior walls when he’s back. It is Monday, February 14th, and I am alone today because Donavan is off at one of his other jobs. Will buy again.Welcome back to our home renovation and remodel project.
