The ideal solution for reducing your heating costs: SunStone insulation boards prevent heat-loss downwards, this means that the heat produced by your underfloor heating system is retained in the room for longer. Therefore, you use your heating less frequently or for shorter periods of time.

Insulation boards play a critical role in the installation of electric underfloor heating systems. They are used to improve the efficiency and performance of the heating system by reducing heat loss and ensuring even heat distribution. Here are some key points to consider regarding insulation boards for electric underfloor heating:

1. Purpose of Insulation Boards:

  • Heat Reflection: Insulation boards are designed to reflect heat upwards towards the floor surface, preventing heat loss downward into the subfloor.
  • Even Heat Distribution: They help distribute the heat evenly across the floor, avoiding hot and cold spots.
  • Energy Efficiency: By reducing heat loss, insulation boards contribute to the energy efficiency of the underfloor heating system, potentially reducing heating costs.

2. Types of Insulation Boards:

  • Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) Boards: XPS boards are a popular choice for underfloor heating installations. They have good insulating properties, are moisture-resistant, and are easy to work with.
  • Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) Boards: EPS boards are lightweight and budget-friendly. They provide some insulation but may be less effective at heat reflection compared to XPS.
  • Foiled-Faced Insulation Boards: These boards have a reflective foil layer on one side, which enhances heat reflection. They are suitable for use with underfloor heating systems.
  • High-Density Cement Boards: Some high-density cement boards are designed for underfloor heating installations. They provide durability and excellent heat distribution.

3. Thickness and R-Value: The thickness and insulating properties of the board should be selected based on your specific heating system and the insulation requirements of your project. Thicker boards generally have higher R-values, indicating better insulation.

4. Compatibility: Ensure that the insulation board you choose is compatible with the type of flooring and underfloor heating system you plan to install. Some systems and floor coverings may have specific requirements for insulation thickness and type.

5. Installation: Proper installation of the insulation boards is crucial. They should be laid evenly across the entire floor area, with joints staggered and tightly sealed to prevent heat loss. Follow the manufacturer’s installation guidelines and any recommendations from the underfloor heating system manufacturer.

6. Moisture Resistance: In areas where moisture could be a concern, such as bathrooms or kitchens, it’s essential to select insulation boards that are moisture-resistant to prevent damage and maintain insulation effectiveness.

7. Local Building Codes: Be sure to comply with local building codes and regulations regarding insulation requirements for underfloor heating installations.

8. Professional Installation: While some DIY enthusiasts may choose to install insulation boards themselves, it’s often advisable to have a professional installer or electrician handle the installation, especially if you are not experienced in this type of work.

Proper insulation is a crucial component of an efficient and effective electric underfloor heating system. Choosing the right insulation board and ensuring its correct installation can maximize the benefits of your underfloor heating while minimizing heat loss and energy consumption.
