Marmox insulation can be a part of the installation process when laying underfloor heating. The insulation will help to prevent heat being lost through the floorboards or concrete flooring beneath. This, of course, assists your underfloor heating to be as cost effective as possible by keeping the heat in the room; this will be apparent from your savings in fuel bills.

The insulation will also assist the underfloor heating system in warming up the floor over a shorter period of time. The aim of underfloor heating is to achieve a cosy and comfortable environment and the added insulation will help you to achieve that more quickly. Of course, the environment is of concern with all fuel consuming products nowadays and insulation supports products to work more efficiently, therefore using less energy and being friendlier to the environment on the whole.

Marmox is a robust, reinforced insulation board. It is made of waterproof, stable polystyrene. Each face has a fibreglass mesh within a cement polymer mortar. A tiled floor can take up to two hours to heat without insulation. Marmox insulation can reduce the heating time to around 10-15 minutes.
