Clip-Plate Underfloor Heating System
Clip-Plate is a fast and effective method of laying underfloor heating within a screed floor. The pre-made pipe spacings allow for reduced installation times and also act as protection from site traffic whilst the screed is being laid. This system also allows for the pipe to be installed onto a surface that cannot accommodate staples due to minimal insulation heights.
Clip-Plate, once interlocked with each other, create a membrane removing the need for DPM over the insulation.
Can quiet easily be installed by a single engineer with a pipe de-coiler and a good knowledge of underfloor heating.

Floor Coverings
Wood Flooring
Wood and laminate flooring can be laid directly on to the screed systems, along with an underfloor heating suitable underlay. You should always consult the flooring manufacturer to ensure the wood floor is suitable with underfloor heating. The wood floor should not exceed 27°C
Tile Flooring
Tiles can be laid directly on to screed using a flexible tile adhesive. We strongly advise the use of a decoupling membrane, this will help prevent cracks and also provide a separation layer should you want to change the tiles in the future.
LVT/Vinyl Flooring
LVT / Vinyl need to have a flat surface to lay on. It is recommended to speak directly with the manufacturer to ascertain any pre-existing requirements prior to installing LVT or Vinyl. The vinyl floor should not exceed 27°C.
Carpet Flooring
Carpet floors require a flat surface to lay to and a underfloor heating suitable underlay should be used to avoid restricting the heat from passing through into the the space above
The Clip-Plate system is suitable to install in the following patterns
