Radiant Heat Floors

Radiant-heated floors require special consideration in the selection of carpet, carpet cushion, installation methods and adhesive.

 

Unless absolutely certain about the location and depth of heating components, use adhesive to attach tack strip and transitions.

 

The maximum surface temperature of radiant-heated substrates should not exceed 85ºF/29ºC.
