Continal Underfloor Heating has launched OneBoard Plus – an updated version of the OneBoard structural underfloor heating (UFH) system.
The new OneBoard Plus system comes with a full heat dissipation foil designed to ensure heat outputs of up to 72W/m² across the floor.
As a structural system, it can be laid directly on 400mm and 600mm joists and can be used for both newbuild and retrofit installations.
OneBoard Plus has an inbuilt composite chipboard panel that replaces the normal chipboard or plywood sub-layer. This also helps to reduce floor build-up heights, creating a low-profile UFH system which the company says can be fitted almost anywhere. The panel depth measures just 22mm to give installers flexibility when designing and fitting UFH systems.
There are pre-routed 12mm pipe channels set at 150mm pipe centres to make it easier to lay the UFH pipes into the board. The pipe centres incorporate Continal’s flexible SUPERflexTM-12 underfloor heating pipe, which is kink-resistant and offers a bend radius of less than 100mm.
Suitable for all heat sources and floor coverings, OneBoard Plus can be combined with a wide range of control solutions including digital and manual thermostats, as well as app-controlled thermostats so users can control their heating through their smart device.
Chris Ingram, Founder of Continal Underfloor Heating, said: “OneBoard® Plus is the newest product offering from Continal. Offering even greater levels of efficiency than our original OneBoard structural floor system, OneBoard® Plus enables installers to fit UFH in areas where ceiling heights are an issue, with very low floor build-up heights. OneBoard® Plus is able to achieve outputs of up to 72W/m2, which is more than adequate for virtually all newbuild houses under current Building Regulations.
“As with all our products, OneBoard® Plus is supported by Continal’s exceptional customer service and market-leading quality. We’ve been providing UFH to installers across the UK for 25 years, and we’ve never had a system fail.”
