Floor screeds are used with underfloor heating to distribute heat across the floor and to increase efficiency by acting as a thermal store. They also provide a protective layer around the underfloor heating pipes.
As screed transfers heat very well, this gives an even temperature in the floor, keeping the room comfortable with no cold spots.
Underfloor Heating Screed provides a thermal store through its mass; it stores the energy and releases it slowly over time. Thermal mass increases efficiency by building up the energy store and then using small bursts of low temperature energy to keep the floor and hence the room at a consistent temperature.
There are several points to consider when specifying screed such as compressive strength, floor thickness, screed finish, speed of installation, curing and drying times.
Supplied by the main screed manufacturers; there are two main types of floor screed used with underfloor heating:
Traditional sand/cement.
Free Flowing Anhydrite based screeds.
Underfloor Heating Cumbria
Logic will install your underfloor heating in Cumbria with finesse. Underfloor heating systems are the stylish and efficient way to heat the modern home or office.
With energy savings of up to 20% when compared to traditional radiators, more and more homes, self-builds, offices and commercial properties are switching to the uniform warmth of underfloor heating.
The benefits:
Underfloor heating is the stylish and efficient way to heat the modern home.
Unobtrusive and simple to maintain, Logic Group-installed underfloor heating systems do away with radiators and pipe-work, freeing up space and generating even amounts of easily-controlled warmth throughout the room.
Research has proved that underfloor heating is cleaner, healthier and more energy efficient when compared to traditional heating methods.
Even if constraints of cost or installation are a factor, Logic Group underfloor heating systems can be designed to integrate with your existing central heating to provide all the benefits and cost savings.
Underfloor heating creates a comfortable, radiant heat which makes it ideal for being used in conjunction with high efficiency heating systems such as heat pumps.
Underfloor heating installation:
Logic Group can offer design, supply and installation services to both domestic and commercial customers.
However, if you prefer to self-install that’s no problem! We’ll provide you with a comprehensive list of materials and components, along with step-by-step instructions, schematics and Auto-cads for you, or your sub-contractors.
Logic Group installation engineers will install the underfloor heating pipework in line with the design supplied by us and guidelines in accordance with BS1264, the British Standard for underfloor heating.
What next:
It really couldn’t be simpler, you provide us with the building plans via email or post and our experienced team of designers and engineers will do the rest.
