This is because the heat is evenly distributed throughout the floor, creating a steadily warm environment throughout. Improved comfort: Radiant heating systems provide more stable temperatures when compared to traditional forced-air heating systems. There are quite a few benefits to using Crete-Heat insulated floor panels with radiant heating systems, but first some broad benefits of using Radiant Heat in your floor: The panels create a grid to hold PEX tubing in place and keep the heat from being lost into the ground. These panels are made of high-density expanded polystyrene foam (EPS), which is a lightweight and durable material that has excellent insulating properties.
Simply push them into place and they’re firmly held where you want them.Read our review of the panels below and visit Barn World today for more information, a quote, or for help planning your project.Ĭrete-Heat insulated floor panels are pre-engineered, modular panels designed to provide insulation for radiant floor heat in residential floors, garages, driveways, and commercial buildings. There is no taping or tube-piercing staples needed to secure the fluid-carrying tubes in place. You can immediately see how the heat source will be dispersed into the slab.Įach of the knobs uses 3″ centers so there is no guesswork on spacing and the pex won’t move when the cement is poured. The raised knobs securely hold the PEX tubing in place and make laying out your design easy. The pex knobs allow a single person to layout the tubing grid and protect the tubing while holding it in place during the pouring of cement. This feature frees up others and can produce tremendous savings in labor. The insulating properties make these boards quickly pay for themselves but they also shine during installation. These panels keep the heat from dissipating into the ground and focus it upward where it’s needed, They’ll improve the heating of the floor surface by as much as 2/3! Floor Heat Panel Installation Keeping the heat above the ground so it can warm the concrete above is important to maximize the heat sent to the slab. Properties of Floor Insulation Thickness of the Insulation Not everyone requires the maximum R-15 insulating properties of the 3″ thick panels so ratings of 6 and 10 are also offered. The panel insulation is available in three different thicknesses and provides varying R-ratings. The knobs also protect the tubing from damage when walking on the panels or rolling over with a wheel barrel. The modular boards create a Lego-type design that holds the tubes in place. They also keep them from moving when the cement is poured on top. The foam boards themselves measure 25″ x 49″ overall and are designed to link together to prevent movement and help with layout. The Crete Heat Floor Panels offer a simple and effective barrier to reflect and retain heat on your floor. To keep your heat from being lost in the ground below, floor insulation is necessary. The insulating panels are made for use almost anywhere and are popular for use where concrete or gypcrete is normally installed: main living area slabs, basements, garages, and above-grade installations. Hydroponic heat can be simply installed and provide a warm and economical heating source for decades.
Floor insulation panels make sure the heat stays above ground and in your slab.
Heating the concrete floor beneath your feet is a quiet and extremely efficient means of providing whole room warmth throughout your room.
