Using Insulation Boards with floor heating significantly reduces heat-up times and running costs.

Why should I use insulation boards on a concrete base?


Installing insulation boards over a concrete subfloor helps improve the efficiency and performance of an underfloor heating system. Without insulation, a significant amount of heat can be absorbed by the concrete, increasing warm-up times and reducing the amount of heat transferred into the room. Insulation boards create a thermal barrier that directs more heat toward […]

Why do you recommend Insulation Boards on a concrete base?


The insulation boards are used to prevent heat escaping downwards to the subfloor, improving the efficiency of the system. Insulation boards can reduce running costs by as much as 50% because they are a highly efficient thermal barrier to cold rising from the subfloor. By reflecting the heat upwards instead of losing heat to the […]

What does R Value mean ?


The R value is a measure of thermal resistance used in the construction industry. The higher the R value the better an insulator (e.g. 10mm Warmup® Insulation Boards have an R value of 0.28 m²K/W and the 20mm Warmup® Insulation Boards have an R value of 0.58 m²K/W). All buildings should strive for the highest […]

What are Warmup Insulation Board made from?


Warmup® Insulation Boards are made of waterproof extruded polystyrene with a glassfibre mesh embedded on each face, onto a cement polymer adhesive. The boards are fully waterproof, preventing any water to pass through them in the way expanded polystyrene boards do. They are lightweight, easy to cut with a knife and install onto any surface. […]

Where Can Insulation Boards Be Used?


Insulation boards are suitable for installation on both floors and walls, making them a versatile solution for underfloor heating projects and tiled surfaces. When used as a floor tile backer board, they provide a strong, stable base capable of supporting heavy loads while improving the efficiency of underfloor heating by reducing heat loss into the […]

Warmup Insulation Boards: Preparing for the Installation of Floor Heating


All surfaces should be thoroughly cleaned of all dirt and debris. When installing over an existing concrete base, it is important to remove all traces of existing finishes, contamination, etc. to allow for a clean surface.
