Vinyl Under Floor Heating

When installing under floor heating with vinyl floors it is important that you use a low temperature system that will not exceed 28°C.

 

The flat ribbon under floor heating is the favoured choice for Allbrite however the carbon under floor heating system is very effective in this type of installation.

 

The flat ribbon under floor heating is suitable for all room types, but the carbon film cannot be installed in bathrooms or kitchens.

 

There are two installation methods when using the flat ribbon system with vinyl floors,

 

1. Using a latex level compound over the top to give a smooth flat finish

 

or

 

2. Using heat-pak overlay board to give a smooth flat finish

Allbrite recommend the second option as it is more cost effective and less labour intensive which also keeps the installation cost to a minimum.

 

When installing vinyl with the carbon film under floor heating system you must use Heat-Pak overboards on top of the heating elements before laying your vinyl floor.
