Dry underfloor heating systems
After leveling your floor with the StaenisGrid and OSB board, you can apply a dry underfloor heating system on top of it.


Opal Systems, Uniwarm, Henco, Vasco, and BrioTherm are companies that offer underfloor heating systems. These systems are suitable for both new construction and renovation and consist of insulation or gypsum fiber floor panels with pre-formed grooves in which the underfloor heating pipe is laid. The systems are comfortable, flexible, energy-efficient, and offer quick installation with low thermal inertia. The floor finish can be applied immediately after the installation of the underfloor heating. These companies also offer zone control and energy-saving solutions.
Below you can find a brief overview of various dry floor systems with underfloor heating.

Opal Systems
MDF board provided with pre-formed grooves in which the underfloor heating pipe is laid.
Immediately upon its introduction in 2009, OPAL-Systems established itself as a benchmark for reactive underfloor heating. The fact that OPAL's system scores highly in terms of both required space and reactivity makes it—regardless of your residential project—one of the most comfortable and flexible solutions.

Uniwarm
Gypsum fiber floor panel provided with preformed grooves in which the underfloor heating pipe is laid.
Are you looking for a comfortable and energy-efficient climate system for a construction project? Uniwarm is happy to assist you. As an experienced system supplier, we offer a wide range of low-temperature products for the floor, wall, and ceiling.
Uniwarm
Henco
Insulation board or gypsum fiber floor board with pre-formed grooves in which the underfloor heating pipe is laid.
HENCO SECOR is a dry system with a very low installation height. The absence of a screed guarantees quick installation and low thermal inertia. The panels already have an aluminum layer for optimal heat emission. Henco Secor is installed with the Henco multilayer pipes and is only placed in a meander pattern. The floor finish can be applied immediately after the installation of the underfloor heating. This makes the system extremely suitable for renovations.
The RENO12 system is especially suitable for a low build-up height, for example during renovation works. You install the pipe in a preformed panel. It is important that you place the panel on a completely flat surface.

Vasco
Insulation board provided with preformed grooves in which the underfloor heating pipe is laid.
Vasco offers a wide range of underfloor heating systems, tailored to various construction techniques and situations, for new builds and renovations. This way, you are always assured of the most energy-efficient, user-friendly, and comfortable solution. That is exactly what you get at VASCO: a total solution for your specific challenge, including an energy-saving and intuitive zone control.

RBM Kilma Futura
Insulation board equipped with pre-formed aluminum grooves in which the underfloor heating pipe is laid.
Kilma Futura is a revolutionary radiant system, without screed and characterized by a very low build-up height, allowing for a finished floor heating/cooling of less than 3cm. The unique feature of Kilma Futura is the possibility to place the floor directly on the insulating panel without the need for a layer for support and load distribution such as metal plates, fiber-reinforced gypsum boards, meshes, etc. This greatly simplifies and speeds up the installation work and significantly reduces costs and execution problems. Moreover, to carry out an installation with Kilma Futura, a unique type of panel is used for the entire installation, without having to distinguish between those at the head, the intermediate ones, the bends, etc. Each panel is already provided with preformed grooves where the pipe is laid.

BrioTherm
Insulation board provided with preformed grooves in which the underfloor heating pipe is laid.
Renovations can completely transform older buildings into an attractive home or modern business space.
The BRIOTHERM RENOPLUS underfloor heating is extremely suitable for a low installation height, as is usually the case with renovation work.
In the dry underfloor heating system, the heating pipes are laid in pre-formed insulation panels. These pipes are placed in heat-conducting and heat-distributing profiles made of galvanized steel. The entire assembly is covered with galvanized steel plates that perfectly distribute the heat.

Thermoduct
Insulation board provided with preformed grooves in which the underfloor heating pipe is laid.
The Reno underfloor heating system guarantees you the best heat distribution and is therefore the cream of the crop. This system can be installed both 'wet' and 'dry'. Due to the thin screed layer, a fast heating and cooling time is achieved. The minimum available floor height required to install this system is only 6 centimeters. Reno is a low-temperature system for heating and cooling floors and surfaces both indoors and outdoors.

Variotherm
Gypsum fiber floor panel provided with preformed grooves in which the underfloor heating pipe is laid.
Variokomp dry construction underfloor heating, the solution if you have little installation height or if there is a wooden subfloor. The low-profile underfloor heating also guarantees a perfect indoor climate due to the high heat output and fast response time.
Our Variokomp underfloor heating is also sometimes called ‘fermacell dry construction underfloor heating’. With Variokomp, you use an 18mm gypsum fiber board with a pre-milled stud profile. What is special about our solution is that we only supply boards with a stud pattern, not just for the edges. Moreover, you do not need to mill on site, making the installation dust-free and fast.

Climatrix
Insulation board provided with preformed grooves in which the underfloor heating pipe is laid.
This dry system is ideal when the available build-up height is limited or when the total mass of the floor construction must not be too great. The heating pipes are laid in the insulation, resulting in a minimum build-up height of only 25 mm with Climatrix Slim. With Climatrix XSlim, the minimum build-up height is just 15 mm. This system is ideal to combine with floating parquet, such as click laminate (not glued).

Begetube
Insulation board provided with preformed grooves in which the underfloor heating pipe is laid.
When the available construction height is limited or when the total mass of the floor structure must not be too great, using a dry underfloor heating system is usually the only option. In this system, the heating pipes are embedded in the insulation, allowing the total construction height to be reduced to 6cm. This system is therefore particularly suitable for renovation projects.
The base insulation layer consists of a 3cm thick preformed polystyrene board in which the heat-spreading plates and the alpex-duo multilayer pipe are placed. The entire floor surface is then covered with a heat-conducting cover plate to further optimize heat distribution.
The screed or dry floor elements therefore never come into direct contact with the underfloor heating pipe, hence the name "dry system." The possible installation distances are 12.5 and 25 cm.

Dry construction means that no wet products such as sand-cement, concrete, anhydrite, etc. are used during the installation of underfloor heating.
Dry construction systems are mainly used for timber frame construction, renovation, and remodeling, but also for floors where there is no space for a sand-cement screed. Additionally, dry construction is frequently used in situations where sound insulation is also required, such as in apartments.
Dry construction systems come in several variants and are applied on a flat and stable substrate.
Through innovation, and in close contact with the manufacturer in Germany, we currently offer dry construction systems that make it possible to use almost all types of floor coverings. A dry construction system is very suitable for an existing home, a renovation project, or if you are building a new house with a wooden frame and wooden floors. The underfloor heating is not installed in a cement floor, but in an insulation board. As a result, the load is much lower. The floor covering can then be easily placed on the board. The big advantage is that it also heats up much faster in the house.
