FoilFloat RdB

DS UFH 06.5

Introduction

OMNIE FoilFloat RdB system is laid over a flat & even solid floor. The universal panels provide the support for the fully floating floor deck that is laid over. Each panel is manufactured from 25mm extruded polystyrene insulation (XPS) which has a high compressive strength and pre-bonded 8mm acoustic layer suitable for floating floor applications. The heat diffusers are pre-bonded and made from soft temper aluminium. As no thick rigid plates are used the panels are easily trimmed on site. Once the panels are in place, the pipe is pressed into the channels piercing the foil diffuser. To complete the floor a tongue and groove deck or floor finish is laid over. The product is 33mm in total. It is not recommended that tiles are used as the floor finish in floating floor constructions.


Specification

OMNIE FoilFloat RdB system uses 16.5mm PE-RT pipe to DIN 4726 installed into FoilFloat RdB panels, comprising of 25mm XPS extruded polystyrene with pre-bonded heat diffusers and pre-bonded 8mm acoustic layer. This system is to be installed as a continuous insulation layer to support a fully floating floor with a tongue and groove floor deck to be laid over. The system to be designed, installed and commissioned to BS1264. 

ULTRALOW – This product is part of our low build up range.

For more information on UltraLow Technology see Datasheet – DS UFH 23

LAYFAST – Speed up installation time. This product uses our multi directional pipe channel system.

For more information see Datasheet – DS UFH 22
