A modern solution for underfloor heating: the Arbiton Energy Saving Flooring System, comprising 1. a vapour barrier, 2. an underlay and 3. a protective film.
Product description
ARBITON SECURA HEAT VINYL CLICK 5 mm is a specialised thermal insulation underlay made from extruded polystyrene (XPS), designed for underfloor heating systems using infrared heating films. It forms part of the innovative ‘ARBITON’ Energy Saving Flooring System, which helps to utilise heat efficiently and minimise heat loss into the subfloor.
Thanks to its high compressive strength of 500 kPa, it provides stable support for the heating foil and the floor covering. Its thermal resistance of 0.17 m²K/W is designed to limit heat loss into the subfloor and promote its efficient use when heating the room.
Key benefits
- Effective thermal insulation – helps to limit heat loss downwards and promotes heat transfer into the room.
- High compressive strength (500 kPa) – ensures the stability of the floor structure.
- Optimised thermal resistance (0.17 m²K/W) – when installed beneath an infrared heating foil, it helps to reduce heat loss into the subfloor.
- Impact noise reduction of up to 18 dB – significantly reduces the transmission of footfall and stomping noises to rooms on the floor below.
- Compensation for minor local unevenness of up to 3 mm – helps to create a stable subfloor.
- System solution – designed for the ARBITON Energy Saving Flooring System.
