16mm Tekwarm Lite Low Profile UFH Board | 1200mm x 600mm | 100mm Centres for 12mm Pipe
Product Overview:
Tekwarm Lite Low Profile UFH Overlay Boards are high-quality, low-profile insulated underfloor heating (UFH) boards designed for efficient and speedy installation over a flat level subfloor. These boards boast a high compressive strength of 300 kPa, making them ideal for low profile UFH systems. With durable cement coatings on both faces, they are ready for direct application of tiles or wood flooring (on underlay). The board size is 1200mm x 600mm x 16mm, featuring grooves on one face to accommodate a 12mm diameter underfloor heating pipes, ensuring ease of installation with standard radius returns. Custom routed pipe layouts and patterns are also available.
Key Features:
- Low-profile insulated underfloor heating board
- High compressive strength of 300 kPa (kiloPascals)
- Durable cement coatings on both faces for direct application of tiles or wood flooring
- Board size: 1200mm x 600mm x 16mm
- Grooved face for easy installation of 12mm diameter underfloor heating pipes
- Suitable for new build or retrofit installations

Installation Guidelines:
- Timber Base: Use Tekwarm mechanical fixings and washers to secure the boards to the timber subfloor. Ensure the fixings are of appropriate length for the application.
- Concrete Base: Adhere the Tekwarm boards to the concrete using a bed of combed tile adhesive (S1 or equivalent). In some cases, mechanical fixings may also be required depending on the substrate.
- Finishing: In most applications, an additional board is not necessary, and flooring can be directly laid on the upper surface. Wood flooring requires a suitable underlay following the manufacturer's instructions. Flooring grade tiles can be laid on a combed tile adhesive layer. For other finishes, use a separating layer of Tekwarm Overlay Board before installation.
Suitable For: Tekwarm Lite Low Profile UFH Boards are suitable for both new construction and retrofit installations. The standard pattern board is typically available from stock, ensuring quick access for your projects.
