A common alternative to solid wooden floors engineered wood is manufactured to give the look and feel of natural wood and is perfect to use with underfloor heating.
Engineered timber flooring underfloor heating.
You will also need to use a specific underlay designed to help with heat transfer.

Make sure you choose an underlay that s suitable for ufh and will provide effective thermal transfer.
Hardwood natural solid wood is typically more expensive than an engineered option and offers different options in density and moisture content which can influence the chosen floor.
Solid wood natural solid wood is typically more expensive than an engineered option and offers different options in density and moisture content which can influence the chosen.
The majority of wooden flooring is suitable for underfloor heating systems but at nu heat we recommend using engineered timber flooring rather than solid hardwood.
Differences between hardwood and engineered wood flooring.
Underfloor heating and laminate flooring.
A common alternative to solid wooden floors engineered wood is manufactured to give the look and feel of natural wood and is perfect to use with underfloor heating.
Using timber with ufh if the desired look includes a wood floor engineered timber is the best option for use with underfloor heating as its structural stability allows it to.
Solid wood natural solid wood is typically more expensive than an engineered option and offers different options in density and moisture content which can influence the chosen.
Differences between timber and engineered wood flooring.
Whilst both hardwood flooring and engineered wood flooring can be used with an underfloor heating system the differences in their density and moisture content values can lead to different heating requirements.
Whilst both timber flooring and engineered wood flooring can be used with an underfloor heating system the differences in their density and moisture content values can lead to different heating requirements.
Underfloor heating is ideal for engineered wood floors.
Most good quality laminate floors can be used with underfloor heating but it is best that you check with the manufacturer first.
Laminate flooring can often be mistaken for real wood but it is actually a synthetic floor covering.
