After switching on your heating your floor tiles will warm up in about 15 20 minutes even on a cold concrete floor.
Warm up thermal insulation board.
With a 78 fast ramp up time your system will save you 71 in electrical usage.
On a wooden floor it has a 2 degree increase every 10 minutes from startup.
S pecial care must be taken to avoid contact between the electrical floor heating system and the insulating board usually by means of a thin layer of adhesive or by installing a metal mesh on which the heating cables are attached.
Heats up times in our testing facility were cut down from 2 5 hrs.
This is because the insulation board prevents the thermal mass from escaping downwards significantly reducing the amount of heat absorbed by the subfloor.
By reducing the amount of time the room takes to warm up and cool down the room can spend longer at its.
To just 25 minutes.
The uncoated insulation boards are water resistant and are made of extruded polystyrene.
Our underfloor heating by acting as a very efficient thermal barrier.
The r value is a measure of thermal resistance used in the construction industry.
This is because the insulation board prevents the thermal mass from escaping downwards significantly reducing the amount of heat absorbed by the subfloor.
This allows the underfloor heating system to warm the floor and the room up faster and ensures the floor cools down faster after use.
The wib boards will save you money by acting as a very efficient thermal barrier.
This data applies to warmup heating products only.
10mm warmup insulation boards have an r value of 0 28 m k w and the 20mm warmup insulation boards have an r value of 0 58 m k w.

The higher the r value the better an insulator e g.
They reflect the heat upwards into the floor tile instead of allowing heat to warm up the concrete slab below.
Heat up times with floor insulation in testing heat up time was cut from over 2 hours to just 25 minutes.
The board is designed for use under a screed coating.
This is because the insulation board prevents the thermal mass from escaping downwards significantly reducing the amount of heat absorbed by the subfloor.
The high compressive strength of the board 30 tons sqm ensures the integrity of the floor is maintained.
