Parquet Wood Flooring for use with Underfloor Heating

The popularity of under floor heating (UFH) is increasing almost on a daily basis. There are now a multitude of different systems available for almost any application. If you're planning to fit wood flooring in an area using under floor heating you'll need to carefully follow the 'UFH' manufacturers instructions. Make sure you use a high quality engineered floor board and never allow the surface temperature to exceed 27°C. This section covers guidelines of the do's and don'ts of 'UFH' and engineered wood flooring, as well as some of the advanced flooring products we've created to give you a full range of flooring choices when using under floor heating. If you are planning to use Anhydrite Screeds please also see this document. For more information on wood floors suitable for under floor heating please call 01666 504 015.

For many, traditional parquet wood flooring is extremely desirable, and with parquet being the latest fashion craze, this type of flooring needs to be brought into the 21st century. After extensive research we have developed what we feel is the perfect solution for the modern parquet floor with three types of parquet, all of which are suitable for use with under floor heating systems and can be fitted easily.

Option 1 – Engineered Parquet Panels. These panels are hand made to order, and usually come with 6 or 4mm top layers mounted on crossply backing. These are tongue and groove edged for quick, hassle-free fitting. For more information, see the parquet panel product pages.

Option 2 – Engineered Parquet Blocks. These are our latest development, with an ever increasing range of pre-finished options. These are 15 or 20mm thick engineered parquet blocks with tongue and groove edges, these are remarkably easy to fit and are amongst the finest quality available on the flooring market. For more information see our engineered parquet range.

Option 3 – Solid EazyFit Parquet Blocks. These EazyFit blocks allow for a traditional feel. Designed to be glued and pinned onto an 18mm thick marine-grade ply subfloor, these blocks are effectively engineered when fitted.  They come unfinished and can be stained or oiled to almost any colour you want.

Some examples of patterns are set out below, however should you wish to have something very individual then our factory prefinished handmade panels would be a perfect solution with a 10 to 12 week lead time and made to you own design. These panels are tongue and groove all round and match our existing floor boards so you can also create you own border. You can also have a mix of colours in the same panel as well.
