Underfloor heating is now recognised as an efficient and cost effective way of heating all types of buildings. Up to 50% of all self build homes go for this option, along with a growing number of extension and conservatory projects, hospitals, residential homes etc.

Most underfloor heating companies recognise the high insulation value of Seconds rigid foam boards and the advantages to the running costs of their systems. These advantages are passed on to the customer in quicker response time, lower running costs and less system maintenance due to the system working less, and more efficiently. Seconds rigid foam boards offer nearly twice the thermal efficiency of normal insulant and are highly competitive in this situation.

Their benefits are also recognised in ordinary under slab or screed insulation situations where an underfloor system is not being used.
