Default Re: comparisons of heat mat costs and performance

Wouldn't the sand cause water to go stagnant due to it holding water? The sand and tile would be heated to same temp as tile would be in basically mortar causing direct contact and radiating heat off. What you lining this with to keep the water from destroying the building material due to direct contact with the water and sand, as tile installed properly would make its own seal to water out.
