Description
Inscreed Cable System
The Inscreed Cable System is designed for use within a screeded floor construction
Key Benefits:
Floor Covering Can Be Changed: Without damaging the heater, saving money and increasing flexibility.
Optimal Output: Powerful output cable can be laid at different spacings to give optimal output to complement the flooring finish or room design
Works Under Any Floor Finish: Inscreed Cable works with any floor covering compatible with underfloor heating.
What Project is Inscreed Cable Designed For?
If you are looking for underfloor heating for concrete floors, the Inscreed Cable System is designed for this purpose. Inscreed Cable heating is especially ideal for installations within concrete floor constructions in new builds where the floor height is not an issue. For retrofit in existing concrete floors where there is less room to alter the floor height, another electric underfloor heating system may be a more suitable option.
The Inscreed Cable electric underfloor heating system is designed for installation in concrete screed thickness of 50mm to 100mm. One of the best screeds to use for this process is from Instarmac’s UltraFloor range. If insulation is absent or beneath more than 100mm of concrete subfloor, insulation boards must be used to ensure optimum heat-up times.
The Inscreed Heater is suitable for almost any flooring finish and in particular where the flooring (wood, carpet, vinyl) may be replaced from time to time.
The slower heat-up and cool-down time of the Inscreed Cable makes it particularly suitable for rooms which are in constant use, as the screed can be used as a form of storage heating; making effective use of cheaper, low-tariff energy usage.
Suitable Floor Coverings for Inscreed Cable
Tiles: If a tiled floor is being laid on top, flexible tile adhesive and grout must be used with the Inscreed Cable electric underfloor heating system.
Laminate / Wood: With laminate or engineered wooden board floors it is essential that the flooring is no more than 18mm thick to ensure that the heat can transfer through. If you are using a layer of soft insulation beneath the flooring it must be compatible with installation on top of an underfloor heating system.
Concrete: Concrete provides quick heat-up times and retains heat well, even storing the warmth produced by solar gain, making a heated polished concrete floor a great option to improve the comfort and warmth of your home.
