Underfloor heating consists of plastic pipes buried under the floor surface which have ho
t water pumped through them. The floor hardly feels warm bu
t heats the whole room very efficiently, more so than any other method. It is silent too.
Today, the contractor fitted more and now most of the main deck has pipes. The flooring is being fitted over the pipes and then there will be a vinyl surface to finish.
The hot water comes from a heat pump. More about that in my next blog.
Also today, the wet units (toilet/shower/washbasin) have all been put in place and a lot of the plumbing connected. The lower deck is no longer a big gaping space.
There are 14 cabins in total, each one having e-suite facilities. One of them is on the main deck for disabled use. Of the 13 on the lower deck, two of them have just two berths and the remaining 11 have four berths each. There will be underfloor heating on the lower deck as well as the main deck.
The wheelhouse is now fully panelled and even the ceiling is now finished.
There are lot of pipes and things to connect ship to shore and one picture shows the entrance point in the transome.
