Can I use under floor heating with this flooring?

Hello! Yes, but certain instructions must be followed closely. The floor temperature cannot exceed 84 degrees. The warm water lines must be a minimum of 1.2 inches (3 cm) underneath the surface and the contact temperature of the floor cannot exceed 84 degrees. The radiant heating should be switched off at least 24 hours before installing. The floor should not exceed a temperature of 64 degrees before, during, and 24 hours after the installation of laminate flooring. Install the moisture barrier (if over concrete), underlayment (if no attached pad), and laminate as described in the installation instructions but be sure to check the suitability of the underlayment in combination with the radiant heating. Do not switch the radiant heating on for at least 24 hours after installing the floor. Avoid excessive differences in temperature – turn your heat up or down step-by-step, not all at once. The highest acceptable heat conductivity for any kind of floor covering is 0.15 K.m2/W. For electrical under floor heating, a value of 60W/m2 must not be exceeded. Thank you for your interest in QuickStep Studio flooring. - Shanna
