Adding a continuous layer of insulation under the concrete slab foundation creates a thermal barrier between the ground and the heat conductive concrete.
Thermal barrier concrete floor.
Product use like a foam cup protects your hand from the hot beverage it holds the barrier product family protects concrete from heat loss and moisture especially when used in a radiant heat floor application.
The high density pvc plastic used to form the body of thermaldry flooring tiles is strong durable and immune to moisture damage.
In fact the thermaldry underlayment system creates a moisture and thermal barrier to keep your finished flooring dry and comfortable at least 8 10 degrees warmer than the concrete surface.
The barrier under concrete insulation is a thermal block which insulates the concrete from the cold and dampness of the ground.
This enhances your overall building efficiency and prevents condensation and moisture buildup that can lead to structural damage.
The barrier s unique core material is an expanded polystyrene eps with a jobsite tough heavy duty poly film laminated on both sides.
Best 6 mil vapor barrier underlayment by flooring type.
The underside of each thermaldry tile features nubbed construction to create a drainage plane as well as a thermal break to shield your feet from the cold concrete floor.
Thermal insulation helps break the coldness from concrete flooring.
Compression resistance helps support the floor from high traffic areas and feel more comfort underfoot.
