Wooden floor & underfloor heating:
a perfect combination

A wooden floor from Cinzento Custom Made® is excellent to combine with underfloor heating. Door onze hoogwaardige eikenhouten vloeren direct op de vloer met vloerverwarming te verlijmen, werkt het hout minder en geniet u van een comfortabele, energie-efficiënte manier van verwarmen.

Why choose a wooden floor in combination with underfloor heating?

  • Comfortable heat: The combination ensures even and pleasant heat distribution in your room.

  • Energy-saving: Wood has natural insulating properties, so it retains heat well and contributes to lower energy consumption.

  • Sustainability: Our oak floors are produced sustainably and, with proper maintenance, can last for generations.

Also suitable for underfloor cooling

In addition to heating underfloor heating can also be used for cooling in many new-build homes. Our oak floors are suitable for systems that both heat and cool, provided the temperature of the water in the system does not fall below 18°C to prevent condensation.

What types of underfloor heating systems are suitable?

Our wooden floors can be combined with various underfloor heating systems, including:

  • Traditional underfloor heating: Pipes lie on the concrete floor and are covered with a finishing floor.

  • Dry-build systems: The system is installed on top of the existing floor (wood, concrete, sand cement).

  • Milling in water pipes: Trenches are milled into the existing screed (cement, anhydrite or Fermacell) where the water pipes are placed.

We recommend always consulting a parquet and/or underfloor heating specialist for optimal results. Contact our Cinzento dealers, for example.

Which types of wood are suitable for underfloor heating?

Not all wood species are suitable for underfloor heating. Oak, our most commonly used wood species, is ideally suited because of its stability and low thermal resistance.

Historically, solid floors with higher thermal resistance were used, but today we prefer two-ply oak floors because they perform better with underfloor heating.

For the best advice, we recommend always consulting a Cinzento dealer.
