These overlay panels are made from high-density\u003cbr\u003eXPS (300 kPa), which is thermally insulating, lightweight, waterproof, and faced\u003cbr\u003ewith a reinforced cement coating. The panels offer a quick and easy solution for\u003cbr\u003ethe placement of pipework in both domestic and commercial underfloor heating\u003cbr\u003eapplications. The lightweight, reinforced cement facing provides a robust surface\u003cbr\u003ethat is ideal for direct bonding of tiles. Many other types of finish, such as\u003cbr\u003eengineered wood, carpet, vinyl, etc., can also be used with additional preparation\u003cbr\u003eof the panels.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese panels are ideal for installation on solid floors, such as concrete, screed,\u003cbr\u003eand asphalt floors, as well as suspended timber floors that have been boarded\u003cbr\u003ewith suitable floor boarding, such as tongue-and-groove planking or chipboard\u003cbr\u003eplanking. The panels are easy to cut and install and should be laid with the panel\u003cbr\u003ejoints staggered in a brick bond style. The routed channels are compatible with\u003cbr\u003emost flexible low-pressure underfloor heating pipes.
