Some rooms never quite feel warm enough. The floor stays cold underfoot, the heating works harder, and comfort slips away in winter. Underfloor heating chipboard changes that experience at the structural level. It is the base that allows heat to rise evenly through the room.
What is UFH chipboard?
UFH chipboard is a specially engineered flooring panel designed for underfloor heating systems. The board comes with precisely routed channels ready to accept heating pipes.
UFH foiled chipboard includes a reflective layer that helps direct warmth upward into the room. UFH unfoiled chipboard is the simpler option, used where foil is not required or where additional layers are planned above.
UFH chipboard panels are supplied in a 2400mm x 600mm size with tongue and groove edging for a tight, stable floor fit. The boards meet BS EN312 standards, use an E1 formaldehyde rating, and are produced as a structural, moisture resistant flooring grade for interior applications. Pipe channels are available for both 12mm and 16mm systems.
What is underfloor heating chipboard used for?
People use UFH chipboard when they want the room to feel warm underfoot, not just heated from one corner. It is often used in family living spaces, kitchen extensions, and refits.
It is a common option for offices, garden rooms and modern spaces where people do not want radiators on the walls. Foiled UFH chipboard is often picked to help push more heat up into the room. Unfoiled boards are the straightforward choice when you simply need a strong, routed base for the system.
If comfort matters and you want the space to feel warm underfoot every day, this is the kind of flooring base worth choosing.
