Description
High-Density Fibreboard (HDF) & Chipboard Overlay Panel for Underfloor Heating
The HDF & Chipboard Overlay Panel is a durable and versatile solution designed to complement the Profloor foil-faced OSB board in water-based underfloor heating systems. Whether you’re working on a new build or a retrofit project, this panel provides exceptional strength, stability, and thermal efficiency, ensuring a smooth, stable base for various floor coverings.
Key Features
Premium Material Composition
- High-Density Fibreboard (HDF): Stronger and denser than MDF, HDF is made from compressed wood fibers, offering superior rigidity and load-bearing capacity. This makes it an ideal choice for supporting floor finishes over underfloor heating.
Optimized Overlay Design
- Smooth & Stable Surface: Designed as an overlay panel, it provides a flat, stable base for floor coverings such as laminate, engineered wood, vinyl, or carpet (with appropriate underlay).
- Protective Function: The panel shields underfloor heating pipes from potential damage while ensuring uniform heat distribution across the floor.
Enhanced Heat Transfer
- High-Density Construction: The combined HDF and chipboard structure promotes efficient heat transfer, optimizing energy use while delivering consistent warmth.
Low-Profile Solution
- Minimal Build-Up: With a thin, low-profile design, this panel is perfect for spaces where floor height must be preserved, such as retrofit applications where door clearances and ceiling heights are a concern.
Designed for Underfloor Heating Systems
- Heat-Conductive Composition: Specifically engineered to work seamlessly with water-based underfloor heating systems, allowing heat to pass efficiently to the floor surface.
- Pipe Protection: Acts as a barrier over heating pipes, preventing damage while promoting even heat dispersion.
Effortless Installation
- Pre-Marked Guides: Features printed pipe channel markers and screw positions, simplifying alignment with the Profloor foil OSB board.
- Easy Customization: Can be easily cut to size and adapted to fit various room layouts.
