UnderPlate
Introduction |
---|
OMNIE UnderPlate system provides underfloor heating in timber suspended floors where the floor deck has already been installed or where the floor deck is to be laid prior to the underfloor heating pipe installation. With a floor deck already in place the UnderPlate system is installed between the joists from underneath and secured to the underside of the floor deck. Alternatively the UnderPlate can be installed from above and straddle the joists so that a floor deck can be laid to allow trades to continue without damaging the underfloor heating. This is particularly relevant with an exposed deck open to the elements where the progress of construction relies on a working deck to be in place. In both situations the pipe is then simply pushed into the UnderPlate and once fitted, mineral wool insulation is placed between the system and the proposed ceiling to complete the installation. |
