Tile Backer Board Insulation

RRP From: £15.83

Tile backer insulation boards are designed for use directly under tile and stone floors. When used with underfloor heating the board greatly increases the response rate and overall efficiency of all under floor heating systems. These boards are especially effective when installed over a concrete sub-floor. Each board is 1200 x 600mm (0.72sqm).

If applying boards to a wooden sub-floor or wall joists then we can also supply the cement board washers.

Description

Underfloor Heating Tile Backer Board Insulation

We recommend insulating your sub floor both wooden and concrete sub-floors, however this is especially necessary on a concrete sub-floor with underfloor heating installed. This is because the concrete will drain the heat from your underfloor heating downwards. This can be avoided with our low-cost Tile Backer Board which will increase the efficiency of your underfloor heating system and reduce your overall heating bill. The tile backer boards measure 1200 x 600mm.

Tile Backer Board Insulation is available in 6mm, 10mm, 20mm, 30mm depths. Designed to insulate and resurface walls and floors. The insulation boards can be tiled onto, plastered over and also rendered. Perfect in wet room areas. Likewise very applicable if you have a wooden sub floor. As the tile backer boards can be screwed directly to the wooden floor with cement board washers found in our shop. In addition, the insulation boards can also be glued down with a flexible tile adhesive. Please note that the 6mm boards are not suitable for walls. In this case, 10mm or 20mm boards should be selected for walls in cases where tiles are being installed over the insulation boards. Please feel free to contact our technical department.
