Underfloor Heating and Floating Floors

FoilBoard Floating

FoilBoard Floating

LowBoard

A floating floor consists of a floor deck supported on a continuous layer, usually insulation, that is not directly fixed to the subfloor. With any floating floor it is important to use insulation that has the appropriate compressive strength for the intended floor loads.

There are three methods of installing a floating floor over an existing subfloor:

The LowBoard system enables underfloor heating to be installed in a low build-up construction. The LowBoard panel is 13mm thick and laid over an existing floor, ideal for retrofit applications.

FoilBoard Floating system consists of panels manufactured from extra-high density insulation and available in any thickness to suit your construction. A T&G floor deck is laid over the FoilBoard Floating panels to complete the floor.

The FoilBoard SRB system is a 25mm floating floor panel with a screed replacement board (SRB) laid over. The system has excellent acoustic properties and is intended for separating floors. The conductive nature of the SRB improves the heat output making the system perfectly suited to heat pumps and other sources of renewable energy.
