Lo-Tile Underfloor Heating System
HydroHeat Lo-Tile is ideal for areas that there is no insulation and it would be difficult to add any. Lo-Tile comprises high-density cement-coated insulation routered for 12mm pipe. Designed to give a suitable surface for tile adhesive to adhere to.
The boards are lightweight, and easy to cut. This makes the installation process seamless.
The Tile-Boards are fixed in place using flexible tile adhesive or screws with large washers, depending on the surface you’re fixing to.

Floor Coverings
Wood Flooring
Wood and laminate flooring will require you to level the surface prior to laying the finished floor. 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
There are more suitable systems for this floor covering.
Tile Flooring
Tiles can be laid directly on to Lo-Tile 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 the depth of self-levelling compound required 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, purely so the customer doesn’t feel the channels below their feet. The self-levelling compound can be poured to the minimum depth possible with your chosen self-levelling compound.
