Introducing LoFloor® 18: Our Slimmest Retrofit Solution
We are proud to introduce LoFloor® 18, our state-of-the-art, ultra-thin underfloor heating system designed by our team to specifically overcome the challenges of retrofitting underfloor heating. With only 18mm of build-up, LoFloor® 18, is the thinnest UFH system on the market. It addresses spatial and installation constraints of typical retro-fit UFH installations, making it the go-to solution for renovations where minimal floor disruption is critical. LoFloor® 18’s innovative features and streamlined installation process set a new standard for efficient and hassle-free retrofit underfloor heating.
LoFloor® 18 Features and Benefits
Ultra-Slim UFH System for Minimal Floor Build-up
At just 18mm deep, LoFloor® 18 is the thinnest underfloor heating system on the market. Its ultra-slim design minimises the common challenges of retro-fitting UFH, such as adjusting door thresholds and stairs to accommodate UFH. The ultra low-profile allows for seamless installation without the need for significant structural changes, ideal for renovation projects with limited capacity for floor build-up.
Dual Alu-Foil Layers for Superior Heat Distribution
Just because you require an ultra low-profile UFH system doesn’t mean you should compromise on heat output. At the core of LoFloor® 18’s performance are its two layers of aluminium foil, providing 74 Watts output per m2. Compared to single-foil layer UFH systems, LoFloor® 18’s dual Alu-Foil layers significantly boost thermal conductivity, ensuring rapid and even heat distribution across the entire floor surface. This dual Alu-Foil technology prevents heat loss and cold spots, delivering consistent warmth throughout the space.
Quick and Easy Installation for Minimal Disruption
LoFloor® 18 should be laid directly on top of an existing structural floor. This UFH system eliminates the need for wet trades like screeds, drastically reducing installation time and complexity, making LoFloor® 18 a perfect solution for retro-fit projects that require minimal disruption.
Direct, Hassle-Free Floor Finishes Application
Whether you’re planning to use carpet, vinyl, or wood, you won’t have to compromise on floor finishes with LoFloor® 18. With its dry build-up method, the final flooring finishes are applied directly on top of the system. If applying tiles, you will need to apply a decoupling matting prior to tiling.
Cost Effective UFH Solution for Retro-Fits
By eliminating the need for significant structural changes usually required by traditional UFH installations, as well as drastically reducing installation time, LoFloor® 18 makes big savings on labour and material costs. Furthermore the dual-layer aluminum foil improves heat distribution, optimising energy efficiency, while its durable boards minimise the risk of damage, ensuring long-term savings for homeowners and installers alike.
The Thinnest Underfloor Heating Solution for Retrofit Projects
LoFloor® 18 goes beyond the typical low-profile underfloor heating system; it’s a game-changing ultra-slim UFH solution for retro-fitting existing buildings and homes with minimal floor-height capacity. With its dual Alu-Foil layers, high-strength boards, and ultra-low-profile design, LoFloor® 18 is the optimal choice for installers and homeowners looking to integrate effective underfloor heating without the need for structural changes.
Designed to address the unique challenges of retro-fit projects, LoFloor® 18 provides superior heat distribution and fast installation, all while keeping floor build-up to an absolute minimum.
At Ambiente, we believe that a great underfloor heating system should deliver more than warmth, it should offer ease of installation, confidence in quality, and long-lasting results. With LoFloor® 18, we’ve designed a system that not only meets these expectations but exceeds them, giving you a solution that is built with precision, purpose, and care.
