ᐅ Cooling with underfloor heating systems – is special insulation necessary?

MiIngGood morning everyone,
We have been living in our newly built house for a few weeks now.
It took about two days for me to experience the uncomfortable effects of a well-insulated house in summer.
On the ground floor, the "cooler" temperature stays for a few days, but it gets really warm upstairs.
I have an LWZ504 system, which can also cool via the underfloor heating.
However, my heating installer said that I should have used insulation that is resistant to condensation. Is that correct?
When I ask the neighbors, who also cool with their heat pumps, none of them seem to know anything about this.
To prevent condensation issues, I do have a control unit with dew point monitoring, right?
I can’t find any insulation or impact sound insulation that mentions condensation resistance anywhere online.
Best regards
