Can foam boxes be used for underfloor heating?

Can be used for floor heating

In daily life, people usually use foam boards to prevent heat loss through the floor

Due to the use of foam boards The biggest advantage is that the foam can be recycled and reused, because the foam is a recycled material, therefore in terms of the cost of maintaining the house and underfloor heating, foam board cost is easy to use and affordable. In addition, because the main material of foam board is foam, so its quality is relatively light and the absorption capacity of foam is not good, which means it can avoid the absorption burden by the cement floor. That is to say, it acts as a waterproof function, which is beneficial and harmless to the whole project. In addition, the thermal conductivity of foam board is relatively low, so it has super resistance toshocks if the inside of the floor is almost. filled with air, this type of foam board can then have the ability to bounce back.

Are foam boards toxic when spread under underfloor heating?

The thickness of insulating panels for underfloor heating is generally 20 mm. -50mm, and the specific thickness should be determined according to the actual situation. Generally speaking, the thicker the underfloor heating insulation board, the better the insulation performance, but the thicker the thickness, the higher the cost. Floor heating insulation board, the thickness should be determined according to the actual situation to achieve the best thermal insulation effect.

What type of insulation board is typically used for underfloor heating in high-rise buildings? How thick and dense is it?

1. Foam boards are non-toxic whenthat they are spread out under the underfloor heating.

2. Generally, good quality (XPS) foam boards are non-toxic. Insulation boards made from new materials, such as white crystal boards, do not contain toxic substances such as formaldehyde and ethylbenzene. underfloor heating released.

3. A polystyrene insulation board with a thickness of 10 to 20 mm is used under electric underfloor heating. The temperature of the electric heating wire is around 60 degrees, which is non-toxic.

Detailed information:

The effects of using foam boards:

1. Protect the main structure of the building and extend the life of the building. Since external insulation places the insulating layer outside the structure, it reduces the pressure caused by structural deformationdue to temperature changes and reduces the erosion of the structure by harmful substances present in the air and ultraviolet rays.

2. Effectively eliminate “thermal bridges”. In the past, interior insulation was used and “thermal bridges” were inevitable. However, insulating exterior walls can effectively prevent the appearance of thermal bridges and avoid condensation.

3. To improve the moisture content of the wall, a vapor barrier is usually required for internal insulation. However, the temperature permeability of external insulation materials is generally much stronger than that of the main structure. There is no need to install a vapor barrier inside the wall. Condensation will occur and the temperature of the entire wall in the structural layer will increase, further improving the thermal insulation performance of the wall.

Does the developer have foam panels for underfloor heating?

1. Extruded boards, also called XPS boards, are the third generation of rigid foam insulation materials. It offers superior performance that cannot be replaced by EPS cards. Its density is 35Kg/m3 and its thickness is 4.0 cm.

2. Foam board for underfloor heating is also called polystyrene foam board and EPS board. It is mainly used for building wall and roof insulation, composite panel insulation, cold storage, air conditioning, vehicle insulation, ship insulation, etc. .Very versatile.

3. Nowadays, almost all underfloor heating insulation boards use XPS (extruded polystyrene plastic board). The advantages are low thermal conductivity and high compressive strength. hasalso good and bad XPS cards. The most obvious is the use of raw materials. The more recycled materials used, the worse the quality of the XPS and the lower the cost.

4. To be used as an insulating material, thermal conductivity is a very important criterion. The foam board has an independent bubble structure, low thermal conductivity, generally less than 0.039 W/(m·k), low density and light weight. In addition, the surface of the foam board has low water absorption, good anti-penetration ability and can be recycled. Its degree of recycling is the highest among plastics.

5. What is commonly used now is an extruded polystyrene panel, with a density of 35 kg/m3 and a thickness of 2.0 cm. Its scientific name is extruded polystyrene insulation board, manufactured by extrusion molding. foam board.

No, the insulation layer of the heaterUnderfloor heating is located at the bottom of the installed underfloor heating. It has the effect of preventing downward heat transfer and making upward heat transfer in one direction. saves heat. Its most important function is thermal insulation.

The insulation board for underfloor heating with water at the bottom must also be able to withstand the load from above. High resistance to compression deformation is its second function

No, the developer's underfloor heating does not have an insulating layer, which is not stipulated in the technical design specifications of the construction. The insulating layer is placed on the ground, i.e. the concrete floor. the insulation layer, then make the leveling layer, then lay the underfloor heating. However, the developer's houser does not have an insulation layer for underfloor heating.
