Designed for use in timber suspended or battened floors, the Polypipe suspended floor system uses aluminium double heat spreader plates to transmit the heat evenly across the finished floor surface.
Suitable for joist widths of 300mm to 450mm, the spreader plates are simply fixed to the joist using small nails or staples. The pipe is then run into the preformed grooves of the panels which are designed to hold the pipe securely at 225mm average centers.
A layer of insulation below the panels will ensure that almost all
of the heat generated passes up into the room. The Polypipe suspended
floor system is also suitable for use with "sprung" flooring systems as
used in sports halls etc.
