Tile Backing Insulation Boards----------------------------------------
This is the perfect way to insulate any room when laying underfloor heating where an adhesive is required to stick the flooring down (i.e. ceramic, slate, stone, marble, etc).
Uninsulated floors will act as a heat sink absorbing most of the heat energy created by the underfloor heating, if you choose not to insulate the floor before installing underfloor heating you will find that the power usage will be at least double that of the same system with insulation.
By installing insulation between the subfloor and the underfloor heating system the heat energy is forced upwards through the floor covering, this will ensure the rooms ambient temperature is reached more efficiently and allow the thermostat to switch as needed.
By adding insulation boards to your installation you will immediatly save upto 50% on your heating cost compared to installing on a bare subfloor.
Lightweight and very Strong
A high ratio of mechanical strength to weight gives excellent spanning capabilities and makes our insulation boards highly portable and superb on-site managability. They can support weights of 30+ tonnes per meter square.
High Water & Moisture resistance
The closed cell structure of the insulation boards minimises water absorption offering protection against damage or deterioration when exposed to the damp.
Bonding properties
The smooth, dust free, surface provides an optimum base for bonding and laminating.
Application
The generic form of insulation boards are used as an insulation in double glazed doors & windows, caravans, lofts, wall cavity insulation, floors and much more.
What is an insulation board?
A load bearing Insulation Board is similar to a standard construction board, but does not include the cementitious outer face.
