Floor Construction

Before laying ECOFILM^SET on either a suspended wooden floor or concrete sub-floor it is necessary to install a layer of ECOMAX-LITE thermal insulation. This will minimise heat losses and ensure quicker heat-up times for the floor. It will also act as a means of sound deadening which is required for laminate floors. Next roll out the pre-cut lengths of ECOFILM^SET taking care to locate the "cold tails" on the wall nearest the thermostat connection box. Trim to length as required and insulate trimmed ends as per instructions before taping the element into position. Always take care NOT to overlap the heating elements. Cover the total floor including non heated areas with a layer of Polyester Vapour Barrier (PVB) before laying the chosen floor covering.
