Essential Insulation and Fixing Solutions for Faster, More Efficient Installations

Build the perfect foundation for your underfloor heating installation with our range of insulation panels, fixing systems and installation accessories. Designed to improve energy efficiency, reduce heat loss and make installation quicker and easier for both water and electric underfloor heating systems.

Why Insulation Matters

Insulation boards and fixing systems play a vital role in the performance of any underfloor heating system. By directing heat upwards into the room instead of allowing it to escape into the subfloor, they improve heat-up times, increase efficiency and reduce running costs.

  • Maximise Heat Output – High-quality insulation helps direct more heat into your living space rather than losing energy into the subfloor.

  • Increase Energy Efficiency – By reducing heat loss, insulation allows your underfloor heating system to operate more efficiently and economically.

  • Simple & Secure Installation – Our fixing systems, clip rails, staples and spreader plates keep pipes and heating elements securely positioned during installation.

  • Suitable for New Builds & Renovations – We have insulation and fixing products to suit your project.

Insulation & Fixing System FAQ’s

Insulation is one of the most important parts of any underfloor heating installation. It reduces heat loss into the subfloor, directing more warmth upwards into the room where it’s needed. This helps your heating system warm up faster, improves energy efficiency and can lower running costs over time.

In most installations, insulation boards are highly recommended. They improve the performance of both electric and water underfloor heating systems by reducing downward heat loss and increasing heat output into the room. They also help shorten warm-up times, making your heating system more efficient and responsive.

Spreader plates are commonly used in suspended timber floor constructions. They sit between the floor joists and securely hold the underfloor heating pipe while evenly distributing heat across the floor surface. This creates a more consistent floor temperature and improves the overall efficiency of your heating system.

Yes. Good quality insulation helps reduce heat loss, allowing your underfloor heating system to reach the desired temperature more quickly while using less energy. Over time, this can help lower your heating bills and improve the overall efficiency of your home.

Yes. Many insulation panels are specifically designed for renovation and retrofit projects where floor height needs to be kept to a minimum. Low-profile insulation boards can improve heating performance without significantly increasing the finished floor level, making them ideal for upgrading existing properties.

Castellated panels feature pre-formed fixing points that allow underfloor heating pipe to simply clip into place, making installation quick and ensuring consistent pipe spacing. Retrofit panels are designed for renovation projects where floor height is limited, offering a lower-profile solution while still providing excellent insulation and support for the heating pipe.

Electric underfloor heating systems typically use high-density insulation boards installed beneath the heating mats or loose cables. These boards reduce heat loss into the subfloor, improve warm-up times and increase the efficiency of the heating system. Choosing the correct insulation board can significantly improve the performance of your electric underfloor heating installation.
