Improved Installation Techniques,
Innovations in installation methods have made it easier to retrofit underfloor heating into existing homes, minimizing disruption and enhancing compatibility with various flooring materials.
Versatility
Today’s underfloor heating systems can work effectively with a wide range of floor types, including tiles, laminates, and solid & engineered parquet flooring, which opens up aesthetic versatility for homeowners
Considerations for Flooring Installation
Solid parquet flooring can be used with underfloor heating, it is crucial to select materials that can with stand temperature fluctuations. Engineered wood is often recommended but with parquet flooring you can use Tumbled or Beveled solid herringbone with specialised gluing systems .
