Using A Liquid Screed Together With Underfloor Heating

If you are installing underfloor heating in a new building it needs to be covered with a floor screed. For many years now a floor screed has been made up using just sand and cement, often mixed on site in a cement mixer, and then laid by hand by a worker using a hand trowel to level it out.<br><br>

  2. However, in the last few years there has been a large change over to using liquid screeds in place of sand and cement because of the many benefits thattheyhave. Oneadvantageisthespeedoflaying,because whencarryingoutfloor preparationin Hungerford,at UKScreeds,we simply attach a pump and hose to the delivery truck (the screed is delivered ready mixed) and then pump it on to the substrate. This can be up to 20 times as fast as layingsandandcementbyhand.

  3. Not only that, but our liquid screeds can be laid a lot thinner than sand and cement. This means that you don’t need as much material, andinturnitfollowsthatthe underfloor heating will heat the screed, and therefore the room, more quickly,thus usinglessenergy, which results in lower energy bills. In addition tothat,thethermalconductivityofliquid screedisalmosttwicethatofsandand cement, again resulting in faster warm up time and requiring less energy, and also providing greatercontrollability.
