Fastwarm® FastTile+ A high compressive strength 200 kpa XPS underfloor heating insulation board for low profile systems. It has durable cement coatings on either face that are suitable for the direct application of tiles or covering with floor leveller, leaving the surface suitable for covering with all floor finishes.
The board size is 1200mm x 600mm x 20mm, it comes pre-grooved at 150mm spacing. The grooves fit our Fastwarm 16mm underfloor heating pipes with the spacing ensuring optimal output and ease of installation.
Features & Benefits
- Provides ready-made pipe securing & spacing using pre-grooved insulated boards
- High compressive strength insulation
- Tile or Level over primed board to accommodate all floor coverings
- Typical outputs up to Up to 76w/m2 • 600 x 1200 x 20mm (for 16mm pipe)
- Ensure subfloor that the system is being laid to is structurally sound and ready to accommodate the FastTile+ system.
- Clear floors of dust and debris and prepare the floor using a suitable primer. We recommend Ultra Prime IT MSP
- Allow primer to dry prior to adhering FastTile+ panel to the subfloor. Using a Cementous based flexibleS1 adhesive (Ultra Proflex SP) begin bonding FastTile+ boards to the subfloor using 8mm to 10mm square notch trowel.
- Install boards in a brick bond application above adhesive Compress FastTile+ board onto bed of adhesive for full adhesion which will create a 4mm to 5mm full bed of adhesive beneath panels, creating a flat and level surface.
- Using a screw and washer mechanically fix FastTile+ board to timber subfloor, it is advised to use 5 fixings per 1m2 and leaving a 30mm perimeter around edge of boards.
- Lay underfloor heating pipe into grooved channels and prime panels ready to accept floor covering.
- Material Composition:
- The insulation board is constructed from high-density, closed-cell extruded polystyrene (XPS) foam, ensuring excellent thermal insulation properties. The top surface features a durable, cementitious coating to provide a solid base for tile or floor levelling.
- Dimensions:
- 1200mm x 600mm x 20mm making it suitable for Fastwarm 16mm Underfloor Heating Pipe
- Thermal Performance:
- The board's insulation properties contribute to energy savings by minimizing heat loss and maintaining a comfortable indoor temperature.
- Pre-Grooved Design:
- The pre-grooved layout features channels with uniform spacing of 150mm to accommodate Fastwarm 16mm underfloor heating pipes.
- Load-Bearing Capacity:
- The robust construction of the board provides a reliable and stable substrate for flooring, supporting the weight of tiles and other floor coverings.
- Moisture Resistance:
- The closed-cell structure of the XPS foam ensures resistance to moisture, preventing water absorption and maintaining the integrity of the insulation board.
- Installation Ease:
- Lightweight yet sturdy composition facilitates easy handling and installation.
- Compatibility:
- Compatible with a variety of floor coverings, including ceramic tiles, natural stone, engineered laminate woods, LVT and low tog carpets.
