ᐅ Underfloor Heating Beneath Wood Plank Flooring

Hello!

I would like to hear your opinions on the topic of underfloor heating and wooden plank flooring:

I want to have a floor that feels as warm and natural as possible, because it is breathable. Therefore, parquet and laminate are not an option. I find wooden planks ideal, maybe even spruce/fir.
Wooden planks are installed on a special substructure, as far as I have seen... So I could probably save on screed in those areas.

But how do you construct something like this in combination with underfloor heating? Support elements to the concrete slab can only be placed between the pipes/tubes, right?

I will defer to the “expertise” and return to the original question from the OP.

Radiant Heat/Convection:
People prefer to absorb heat in the same way they lose it—through a mix of both. That is why any single form of heating on its own falls a bit short.
Additionally, the intensity of radiant heat decreases with distance, so in a large room, it doesn’t reach the far end.
However, it’s quite easy to add some warm air circulation loops to a heavy masonry heater.
