Temperature of the surface.
Underfloor heating timber floor.
Engineered wood and timber floor coverings have a good structural stability which means they perform very well with underfloor heating.
The surface temperature of the floor must never exceed 27 c.
One of if not the most important of which is floor construction.
The best flooring for underfloor heating is one that efficiently transfers heat from the ufh to the surface of the floor.
This air can warm the upper floors as well.
Joisted floor ufh where a floor deck is supported by timber or engineered joists can be a headache to install but our solutions make the job easy.
This also applies to areas next.
Solid engineered wood.
Underfloor heating can be fitted in both concrete and timber suspended floors but for other floor constructions for example we also offer a floating floor solution please contact us.
Also note that we can offer many different floor constructions for concrete and timber suspended floors if you have special requirements please.
The word derives from the ancient greek hypo meaning under and caust meaning burnt as in caustic.
With timber floors it is essential that the relative humidity of the timber not be reduced to the point where shrinking or warping of the timber could become apparent.

Both hydronic and electric underfloor heating systems work well with timber floors as timber conducts and holds the warmth produced by the floor heater and radiates this into the room.
Underfloor heating underfloor heating is ideal for engineered wood floors.
The natural properties of timber also mean that it has a fast heat up time whilst also resisting heat from escaping too quickly making timber helpful in maximising the energy efficiency of an underfloor heating system.
Solid hardwoods and softwoods are also suitable but board width and thickness can impact their effectiveness so you need to take care when specifications are being taken.
