Hello,
we are about to install laminate or engineered wood flooring in the children's rooms and the master bedroom area. So far, we have always used a 5mm (0.2 inch) impact sound insulation underlay or fully glued the parquet. However, now that we have underfloor heating, the floor build-up should allow heat to pass through as efficiently as possible.
Is there a specific type of impact sound insulation that works well with underfloor heating, and what thickness would you recommend? Have you had good experiences with certain products?
Best regards,
Sabine

But as I said, a barely measurable small one. If that were the case, it would also be barely measurable if you simply covered your radiators at home with an underlay for parquet flooring. Would you do that? According to your theory, it wouldn’t lead to a noticeably higher energy consumption!?!

Although, to fully illustrate the example, I would first place 1.5 mm (0.06 inches) of plastic, 5 cm (2 inches) of screed, 4 mm (0.16 inches) of softwood, 5 mm (0.2 inches) of plywood, and 3 mm (0.12 inches) of hardwood over the radiator. Then I would measure the difference that occurs when I squeeze an additional 2 mm (0.08 inches) of impact sound insulation in between.
