Floor Construction

When fitting ECOFLEX cable to a timber sub-floor it is essential that standard precautions to stabilise the floor are taken to prevent floor movement. All chipboard & timber floorboards must be covered with either ECOMAX insulated tile backer board or 18mm Plywood.

• TOP LAYER - Tile / Stone floor
• SECOND LAYER - Tile Adhesive / Self leveling compound
• THIRD LAYER - ECOFLEX Cable
• FOURTH LAYER - ECOMAX Thermal Insulation
• FIFTH LAYER - Suspended Timber Floor

For optimal performance it is recommended before laying ECOFLEX cable, a layer of ECOMAX insulated tile backer board is fitted. This will minimise heat losses & ensure quicker heat-up times for the floor. ECOFLEX can be laid directly onto an uninsulated floor, however this will increase running costs & heat-up times.

• FOURTH LAYER - ECOMAX Thermal Insulation
• FIFTH LAYER - Concrete Floor
