| Therma-Floor is a gypsum underlayment designed by
Maxxon Corporation specifically for radiant floor heating systems. Poured over hot
water tubes or electric heating cables, it's the ideal thermal mass for any radiant floor
system - including Maxxon's own Infloor® Heating Systems. Therma-Floor encases the tubes or cables in crack-resistant, noncombustible
gypsum, specially formulated to resist breakdown to 150ºF (66ºC). Poured only 1¼"
(32mm) thick, Therma-Floor also makes your heating system more responsive - and your home
more comfortable.
Some radiant systems install under plywood subfloors. But
plywood is nearly 4 times more insulative than Therma-Floor, resulting in lost
heat. Therma-Floor does its work above the subfloor, for greater efficiency and
consistent comfort.
Why a radiant floor heating system isn't
complete without Therma-Floor.
- Resists heat deterioration - it's the only gypsum underlayment
formulated specifically for radiant floor heating
- Enhances heating system responsiveness due to its thin thermal mass
- Provides a smooth, tough surface with twice the compressive
strength and five times the surface hardness of ordinary gypsum underlayments
- Stiffens the floor and won't shrink crack
- Seals perimeter walls, keeping out baseboard drafts
- Eliminates squeaks and nail pops common to wood underlayments
- Muffles sound transfer
- Backed by a nationwide applicator network with over one and a half
billion square feet of experience
- Accepts virtually all floor coverings
- Contains no urea formaldehyde
