Radiant Floor Tubing Insulation Polystyrene

Ampex insulated pex panels are a cost effective superior performing option for hydronic radiant floor heating systems.

Radiant floor tubing insulation polystyrene.

Most builders use extruded polystyrene foam under a slab as it has better compressive strength than expanded polystyrene common called beadboard. Tp2180wt white seam tape is recommended for the 4 edge when seaming two rolls together at the ends. The roth radiant floor panel system is an easily assembled pex tubing track system that allows simple installation of hydronic radiant floor heating over an existing subfloor. Below grade under slab system with foamular extruded polystyrene rigid board insulation and radiant heating.

On top of the insulation and radiant tubing i am thinking of pouring self leveling gyp crete. By designing a cost and time effective solution to insulate and install hydronic floor heating hotrockpanels is revolutionizing the radiant floor. Crete heat expanded polystyrene eps floor insulation boards combine concrete insulation vapor barrier and pex tubing holding grid into a single product which significantly simplifies installation of pex tubing for radiant heating and snow melting applications in a concrete slab. Different insulation types help to minimize heat loss from convection air circulation conduction direct contact or radiation energy waves modes of.

This item comes standard with a self taped edge that runs down the 64 length of the product. In addition to the energy saving properties of radiant heat the creatherm system has an edge over other producers of rigid foam board. Contractors undertaking a new construction project in particular can benefit from the features offered by our foam insulation panel for radiant heat. The most obvious benefit is that radiant flooring is easy to install.

Radiant flooring in floor heating panels in floor heating panel foam insulation panels. Radiant heat insulation is installed to prevent heat loss from a pex radiant floor heating system most commonly pex embedded in concrete slab or stapled underneath the plywood subfloor. Engineers architects and other contractor professionals know that once pipe is laid in a creatherm grid it doesn t move. Nofp ebar464x5 barrierx5 underslab insulation roll 1 1 4 x 4 x 64 note.

Specify this solution zip 4 3 mb. The panels fit together quickly hold the pex tubing in place and are made with expanded polystyrene eps which is designed to be used below grade unlike other materials currently being used. What do you think of my plan. No foamboard staplers staples or wire ties needed.

The system is designed around a 90 psi 6 3 kg cm2 high density polystyrene foam field panel with a bonded 24 ga. Aluminum sheet on top. Get all the construction documentation you ll need in a single click.
