Radiant heat flooring systems are an increasingly popular choice in residential and commercial builds, providing comfortable, energy-efficient warmth from the ground up. These systems rely on durable, thermally conductive materials to properly embed and distribute heat across interior floor spaces. Gypsum-based underlayments are the go-to topping solution for radiant heat systems, offering excellent thermal conductivity, crack resistance, and a smooth, level surface for floor finishes.
Ideal for multi-family housing, healthcare facilities, senior living, and custom homes, these floors not only increase comfort but can help reduce heating costs over time. Gypsum toppings encapsulate radiant tubing with minimal thickness, protecting mechanical components while promoting even heat transfer. They also allow fast installation and drying times — keeping projects moving on tight schedules.
