Fixing Detail In Suspended Floor Applications

  • Superfloor Foil is rolled out with the foil facing upwards, over the joists
  • The pipework is then clipped through into the insulation layer using the specially designed YBS Pipe Clips to maintain required air gap - 5 per M²
  • The horizontal joints are overlapped by 50mm and are left open to allow for any moisture accumulation to dissipate
  • Superfloor Foil must then be brought up (behind the skirting board) to 75mm
  • The pipework is then laid starting from the manifold and then into the required room (see drawing). The pipe is then laid at uniform centres of approximately 200mm centres, notching where necessary.
  • The decking is then fixed with screws (at 200mm centres) into battens/joists providing 25mm penetration into the 50mm wide battens/joists

Fixing Detail In Solid Ground Floor Applications
The screeded system comprises:

  • The Superfloor edge strip - to be laid against all external and internal walls, providing edge insulation and an expansion zone for the screed.
  • Superfloor insulation board is laid on top of the concrete slab. (YBS provide a wide range of thicknesses and types of insulation to ensure the required insulating properties are achieved.)
  • Using the grid pattern - lay down the heating pipes as planned, using clips to fix position.
  • Most situations will require 65-85mm thickness of screed.
  • Reinforcing mesh can be used where required.
  • Expansion profiles are to be used where pipework passes through an expansion joint.
