Foil Insulation, underfloor heating Insulation, electric underfloor heating insulation

Underfloor Heating Foam Insulation 3mm, 5mm or 7mm is made from closed cell cross linked polyolefin foam with excellent properties in terms of condensation control, long term thermal block and sound absorption. This  insulation distributes heat into your room and prevents losses into the floor. This insulation reduces your heating bill. Can be used under laminate or wooden floors.

XPS Boards – Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) insulation boards are a type of rigid foam insulation. They are made from polystyrene resin combined with additives and a blowing agent, which is then extruded through a die to form a closed-cell structure. This manufacturing process results in a lightweight yet durable insulation material with excellent thermal performance, high compressive strength, and moisture resistance. They provide effective thermal insulation, helping to reduce heat loss and energy consumption while enhancing the overall comfort and energy efficiency of the structure. Additionally, XPS boards are resistant to water absorption, making them suitable for use in damp environments and below-grade applications. They are perfect to use under vinyl floors.

Tile Backer Boards – Their primary function is to provide a level, durable, and moisture-resistant surface for tile installations. They help prevent moisture from penetrating through to the underlying substrate, thereby protecting against water damage and mold growth. Additionally, tile backer boards offer stability and support for tile installations, ensuring that the floor remains securely in place over time. Perfect for tiles.

Foil insulation – durability and safety

The insulation foil is made from materials such as polyethylene, polyethylene foam, aluminum foils, or a combination of these materials. These materials are chosen for their insulating properties and resistance to moisture.

Underfloor heating insulation is typically placed directly under the heating elements, such as heating mats or pipes of the underfloor heating system. This is particularly important in installations on concrete substrates, which can absorb a lot of heat.

What are the benefits of using underfloor heating insulation? Foil insulation reduces heat loss and directs it into the room. Moreover, by better retaining heat in the room, the heating system does not have to work as intensely, which translates into lower heating bills. Some types of foil can also protect the underfloor heating system from moisture from the substrate.

The use of insulation foil in an underfloor heating system is an important element in ensuring its efficiency and durability. It ensures that heat is used where it is most needed – in living spaces, and not lost on unnecessary heating of the substrate.
