Insulated Backer Board – Cement Coated Routed XPS is a premium, high-performance insulation solution designed specifically for underfloor heating systems. Available in 16mm and 20mm thicknesses, this board is crafted from 200 KPA extruded polystyrene (XPS), offering superior thermal insulation and compressive strength. Ideal for low-profile heating installations, both sides of the board are coated with a durable cement layer, providing a stable surface for the direct application of tiles or leveling compounds.
Thickness Options:- 16mm thickness for 12mm heating pipes
- 20mm thickness for 16mm heating pipes
- High-Strength Insulation (200 KPA Compressive Strength): The XPS core offers exceptional durability and compressive strength, ensuring long-term support for your underfloor heating system while effectively preventing heat loss through the subfloor.
- Dual Cement Coating: Both sides of the board are coated with a robust cement layer, providing a hard-wearing surface that’s ready for direct tiling or the application of leveling compounds. This makes the board compatible with a wide range of floor finishes, offering versatile options for your project.
- Pre-Grooved for 12mm and 16mm Pipes: The board is pre-grooved at 150mm intervals to fit 12mm and 16mm underfloor heating pipes. This ensures accurate pipe placement, optimal heat distribution, and a simplified installation process, making your setup faster and more efficient.
- Low-Profile Design (16mm and 20mm Thicknesses): With its slim profile, the board is perfect for installations where floor height needs to be kept to a minimum. Ideal for retrofits or low-build-height setups, it offers a practical solution for both new constructions and renovations.
- Large Panel Size (1200mm x 600mm): Each panel covers a large area, reducing the number of boards required for installation and minimising cutting, making it a time-saving and cost-effective choice.
Underfloor heating installations, especially in applications where space is limited or floor height is a concern. The Insulated Backer Board – Cement Coated Routed XPS ensures efficient heating, smooth installation, and long-lasting performance.
