What Are Suspended Timber Floors?
Suspended timber floors are a unique type of flooring system where the floor surface is elevated above the ground or subfloor. This construction uses timber joists or beams as support structures, creating a void or space underneath the floor surface. This design is commonly found in buildings with timber or joisted floors, typically in first-floor applications.
Why Do You Need Specific Underfloor Heating Systems for Suspended Timber Floors?
The nature of suspended timber floors necessitates specific underfloor heating systems. The void created by the floor’s elevation can lead to heat loss and uneven heating if not properly addressed. To counteract these potential issues, underfloor heating systems for suspended timber floors, like the AmbiPlate 20, AmbiPlate 30, AmbiPlate 80, AmbiVoid, or AmbiChipBoard, are designed to evenly distribute heat throughout the floor surface and minimise heat loss. These systems are engineered to work in harmony with the structure of suspended timber floors, providing efficient and effective heating while maximising energy savings.
How Do You Use Underfloor Heating Systems for Suspended Timber Floors?
To effectively use underfloor heating systems for suspended timber floors, these are things to take into consideration:
- Ensure that the suspended floor structure is adequately constructed and capable of supporting the additional weight of the underfloor heating system.
- Choose an appropriate underfloor heating system designed explicitly for suspended timber floors, such as AmbiPlate 20, AmbiPlate 30, AmbiPlate 80, AmbiVoid, or AmbiChipBoard.
- Install the underfloor heating system according to the manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring proper spacing and placement of the heating elements within the void of the suspended floor.
- Connect the underfloor heating system to the appropriate controls, such as AmbiEgo® Actuator, LunaStat®, LunaTouch® Wi-Fi, UB10 Wiring Centre, UB10Spin®, or Actuator Valves, for easy temperature regulation.
- Test the underfloor heating system to ensure proper functioning and adjust the controls as needed to achieve the desired heating levels.
With underfloor heating systems for suspended timber floors, you can enjoy a warm, comfortable environment while also ensuring energy efficiency and heat loss prevention. It’s a smart, sustainable choice for any home or commercial building with a suspended timber floor construction.
