Hello everyone,
Since we have now decided on a vinyl flooring, the next step is to choose which type.
Can anyone advise what kind of vinyl flooring is recommended for a new build with underfloor heating? I haven’t been able to find a clear answer.
(It will be installed in the hallway, kitchen, living room, and guest room.)
The options are all click systems:
Vinyl with HDF (high-density fiberboard) core → thickness 9.6mm (0.38 inches)
Vinyl full vinyl (solid vinyl) → thickness 5mm (0.2 inches)
Design vinyl with CERAMIN® core material → thickness 4.5mm (0.18 inches)
I need to decide as soon as possible since the screed will be poured soon and I have to fix the finished floor level.
Thanks for any help.

Baumhaus.Bau24 Apr 2017 09:42We have now been living in the house for almost two months and have installed vinyl flooring throughout both the ground floor and the upper floor. So far, we have noticed no odor at all, nor have we grown a third arm.
The floor is easy to maintain and virtually indestructible. Even when the sun shines directly onto the floor through our large living room windows, there is no smell or any other noticeable effect.
We would choose this option again at any time.
The advantage of gluing down the flooring is that damaged planks can be replaced individually at any time since there is no tongue-and-groove system. Additionally, we were concerned that with a floating installation, the planks might shift when heated...

The floor is low-maintenance and practically indestructible. Even when the sun shines directly onto the floor through our large living room windows, there is no smell or any other issue.

Is it possible to share a manufacturer link?
@frankenbeutel, which one from Wineo? Glued or click?
