ᐅ Parquet Flooring on Underfloor Heating – Is Thermal Resistance a Concern?

Hello,
We are planning to have oak parquet flooring installed. Today, at the specialist store, we were advised to have the flooring glued down. This supposedly eliminates the need for insulation and is better for underfloor heating. In general, parquet is not ideal for underfloor heating (the heat does not transfer as well as with other floor coverings).
Has anyone had extended experience with this? What should be considered?
By the way, the installation is supposed to cost 30 euros per square meter (about 3.3 square feet) [emoji15]—15 euros for the installation and 15 euros for the adhesive.
Thank you very much for your input.

The slow response of the heating system doesn’t really matter, does it?
It’s the same with the insulated ground slab.
We also have underfloor heating now, and basically the settings stay the same all year round. Who keeps constantly adjusting the temperature up and down anyway?

In all physical and heating-related matters, a completely incorrect statement @aero2016 ... If you assume the house is a closed thermal system (which of course it is not, but ideally it would be), then the first law of thermodynamics would suggest otherwise. The heat that is generated has to go somewhere. It doesn’t just disappear into the air, does it?
