The name says it all
Say goodbye to cold floors. SELITFLEX® 10 mm THERMO reduces heat loss by up to 30 %. This means that your floor gets up to 4 °C warmer and you also save on energy and heating costs. In addition, the underlay is impressive thanks to its very good performance data and is capable of levelling out areas of unevenness up to a height of 4 mm.
Polystyrene foam with good compressive strength – Floor is up to 4 °C warmer
Before installation, please note: Check the base in accordance with CEN/TS 14472 and ensure that the quality of the base is suitable for proper processing. In general, the base should be clean, level, dry, resistant to tension and compression and should not contain any substances such as plasticisers, solvents or other diffusing substances. It must be ensured that the base is in a state of equilibrium humidity and that the CM value is below 2.0 % (for cement screed) or below 0.5 % (for anhydrite screed and anhydrite flowing screed. The processing instructions of the flooring manufacturer are to be observed as binding specifications.
Cleaning the surface
Cleaning the surface
Step 1 Clean the surface thoroughly with a brush or vacuum cleaner. Remove any adhesive and paint residues completely.

Step 5 Lay the flooring in the same orientation as the underlay. Do not place any load on the underlay. If necessary, place the board under your knees/feet to distribute the load.
Finishing the installation

Step 6 Repeat steps 2 – 5 until the entire floor has been installed. Use the Aluminium-Foil Sealing Tape to seal the joints so that they are vapour-tight.
