Produced to a controlled flowable consistency to fully encompass heating pipes
Elimination of voids resulting in uniform heat transfer and maximised thermal efficiency of the underfloor heating system. • Reduced screed depth when compared to traditional sand cement screeds minimising heat storage, resulting in a floor which responds rapidly to user requirements
Extremely low shrinkage - will not curl and minimises the risk of cracking
Does not require reinforcement
Increased productivity - 500-1000 m2per day can be easily achieved
Heating systems can be commissioned in accordance with BS1264:2001-4 clause 4.4, as early as 7 days after application of the screed
Minimal thermal expansion (0.012mm/Mk)
Excellent thermal conductivity (2.2W/Mk)
Environmentally friendly
No curing required
Ready for foot traffic in 24-48 hours.
Self compacting – fully encompassing pipes/cables
The area to be screeded must be made watertight to prevent leakage
The polythene slip membrane installed over the insulation must be overlapped and sealed to prevent loss of screed
Pipes or cables must be securely fixed to prevent floatation and lifting during application of the screed
Best practice is to fill pipes prior to application of the screed to check for leaks, this also reduces the risk of pipes floating whilst the screed is being poured
Ideal flow 230-250mm measured using the DIN1060 flow ring
Minimum cover to pipes or cables must be 30mm
If required surface laitance must be removed prior to commissioning of under floor heating to assist drying
Heating must be commissioned in accordance with BS1264:2001-4 clause 4.4 and run in accordance with manufacturers instructions to accelerate force drying of the screed prior to application of the floor finish
Screed moisture content must be a maximum of 0.5% and 1.0% respectively prior to application of subsequent impermeable and permeable floor coverings
We recommend the use of floor thermostats with electric under floor heating elements
Very Professional from start to finish. I have now used Ben on around 5 projects.
Their after service is excellent.
After 6 years of issues with my underfloor heating, these guys came to my rescue. Their communication, knowledge, workmanship and customer service is second to none. I can't thank Ben enough for the long hours and travel he endured to upgrade my old system and get the everything working again. They really go the extra mile and would totally recommend them!!
Excellent Company to deal with. Our Underfloor is amazing
Excellent Company, Top Notch Customer Service. Dave followed the job through from start to finish. Came when they said they would , did an excellent job. Highly Recommended.
The majority of our projects are refurbishments. With CFS we are able to leave the full floor detail to them, including dig out right the way through to the controls operating the UFH system. No mess, clean and efficient.
I have worked alongside Central for around 5 years now. They have a great work ethic and have never let my site agents down. They will usually insulate, install acoustic flooring and screed around 10 x flats a day for us. This is great for us as we have the trades back in the next day.
