Floor Heating System
Solid floor
Polyplumb floor heating can be permanently built into solid concrete or
screeded floors. As required by current Building Regulations, insulation
is built into the floor directly beneath the unique Polyplumb floor panel.
The heating pipe is simply slotted in and then permanently covered by
the screed. Suitable for all floor coverings.
Solid floor systems can incorporate 15mm or 18mm pipe.
Suspended floor
For installations in suspended floors, Polyplumb floor heating uses either
double or single heat spreader plates. Alternatively, pipes can be laid on
top of insulation between joists. Standard tongue and groove floorboard is
laid above the system. Suspended double heat spreader plate systems use
15mm pipe. Single heat spreader plate and pipe only systems can use
15mm or 18mm pipe.
Floating floor
When installing in floating floors, Polyplumb pipe is simply pressed in to
the preformed heat spreader plate, which sits in grooves within the floating
floor insulation panel. The floating floor system is then covered with 18mm
chipboard sheeting. Suitable for all floor covering. Floating floor systems
can incorporate 15mm or 18mm pipe.
Overlay™
Overlay™ allows floor heating to be installed into existing spaces quickly,
easily and practically. The unique system is a patented low profile panel,
which is laid over existing solid or timber floors. Tiles and laminate can
be laid directly onto the system. Carpet and vinyl require a capping layer
of 4-6mm plywood. Overlay™ is perfect for kitchens, bathrooms or
conservatories, where minimal wall space is available and total design
freedom is required. |
