Can You Install Parquet Flooring Over Underfloor Heating?
I am thinking if installing parquet flooring in my house, but I am not sure if I can have underfloor heating under it?
Mr Sanders
We would not recommend parquet floor installation over underfloor heating, unless you opt for engineered parquet flooring. Solid wood parquet blocks are too thick to allow the heath underneath to come through and it is therefore not possible to install above underfloor heating. However, engineered parquet floors are available today that allow for "floating" parquet flooring installation and are hence suitable for underfloor heating.
