dusty concrete floor with UFH

    hi people

    I have a question that I can't find the answer to anywhere (maybe i'm just not looking in the right places!)

    just about to move into a new build where we have ufh downstairs and upstairs. we're going to live downstairs and do upstairs when we've the money.

    the problem is that there seems to be a Lotta dust coming from the floor upstairs (anhydrite screed self levelling one "easy screed"). I an going to"paint" the floor in my shed to keep the dust down. my query is if I painted the screed to do the same would it affect the thermal conductivity of any future finish I put on it in years to come.

    the reason this comes to mind is I had to use an acrylic primer before I tiled the bathrooms which was advised to aid conductivity through the adhesive.

    has anybody experience of this or what would ye recommend. I don't mind that much a dusty floor. but if possible and if it didn't affect future thermal conductivity I would paint it

    thanks in advance

    Uni Bond painted on to the floor kills the dust to concrete floos , with a clear finish . I can also be thinned out to .
