Heatmaster Underfloor 3 Channel Floor Plates for Wooden Floors 1000mm x 388mm

Suspended floor systems include both joisted floors with conventional joists supported on end walls of sleeper walls as well as solid floors with battens fixed to the floor. The underfloor heating system consists of aluminium diffusion plates fitted between joists or battens. These are grooved to accept the underfloor heating pipework. The aluminium is used for its excellent thermal conduction as well as its low weight. The floor void must be insulated with either loose fill insulation, such as vermiculate, or mineral wool insulation, such as Rockwool. It is essential that air movement in this void is reduced to a minimum otherwise excess heatloss will occur.
