Xps Insulation Boards For Underfloor Heating systems
Available in 6,10 & 20MM Depth options
Living Heat XPS Thermal Insulation Boards offer an efficient, cost-effective solution for improving the performance of electric underfloor heating systems.
Suitable for both concrete and wooden sub-floors, XPS insulation is a versatile choice for a wide range of flooring projects.
These lightweight and durable boards are the recommended underlay for Living Heat Aluminium Foil mats when installed beneath rubber-backed LVT flooring (minimum thickness 5mm).
With the correct insulation installed, this will maximise heat output and energy efficiency of your UFH system.
