Eco Friendly Heating supplies the best underfloor heating systems. Included is the Warmup Inscreed Underfloor Heating System. This underfloor heating system is the perfect solution for underfloor heating in concrete floors. Specifically designed for new builds with concrete floor constructions, the Inscreed Cable System offers efficient and reliable heating performance.
The Inscreed Cable electric underfloor heating system is ideal for installation in concrete screed thickness ranging from 50mm to 100mm. To ensure optimal heat-up times, it is recommended to use insulation boards if insulation is absent or if the concrete subfloor is more than 100mm thick.
The Inscreed Heater is suitable for almost any flooring finish, making it a versatile choice. Whether you prefer wood, carpet, vinyl, or even plan to change the flooring from time to time, the Inscreed Cable system ensures consistent and comfortable heating.
Suitable Floor Coverings for Inscreed Cable
Almost any floor covering can be considered with Inscreed Cable. Since the heater is safely embedded in cementitious screed there is less of a risk of harming the heating cable if the floor covering will be changed from time to time. The following floor coverings are suitable with Inscreed Cable:
Tiles
If a tiled floor is being laid on top, flexible tile adhesive and grout must be used with the Inscreed Cable electric underfloor heating system.
Laminate/Wood
With laminate or engineered wooden board floors it is essential that the flooring is no more than 18mm thick to ensure that the heat can transfer through. If you are using a layer of soft insulation beneath the flooring it must be compatible with installation on top of an underfloor heating system.
Concrete
Concrete provides quick heat-up times and retains heat well, even storing the warmth produced by solar gain, making a heated polished concrete floor a great option to improve the comfort and warmth of your home.
Installation of Inscreed Cable Underfloor Heating on Concrete Floors
Prior to installation, carefully read the installation manual provided. If the concrete base is thicker than 100mm or the subfloor is uninsulated, it is recommended to apply insulation boards and lay the wire directly on the insulation. For concrete bases less than 100mm thick or insulated, the wire can be laid directly on the concrete slab. However, insulation directly below the heating cable improves system efficiency.
Before beginning the installation, ensure the subfloor is suitable for screeding, rigid, and free of dust and debris.
The Inscreed Cable should be laid at least 50mm apart and a minimum of 50mm deep within the screed. Metal fixing strips are used to secure the Inscreed cable to the subfloor. These strips are laid out perpendicular to the heating element and fixed to the insulation board or concrete floor using fixing nails or adhesive, ensuring stability. The heating cable is then laid in a zigzag pattern and clipped into the metal fixing strips, evenly spacing the cable for an even distribution of heat.
Once the cable is in place, the next step is to screed over the heating system by carefully pouring cementitious screed over the fixed Inscreed Cable to a depth of at least 50mm. Place the floor probe supplied with the thermostat as close to the final floor finish as possible, embedding it in the screed. Complete the installation by wiring the heating cable to a thermostat.
After the screed or leveling compound has fully dried, you can proceed to lay the final floor covering of your choice.
