Heres an in-depth look at its features:\u003cbr\u003e1.   \u003cstrong\u003e Routed XPS Insulation:\u003c\/strong\u003e The panel is made from \u003cstrong\u003eextruded polystyrene (XPS) insulation\u003c\/strong\u003e, which provides excellent thermal properties, helping to reduce heat loss and ensure that the heat from the underfloor heating system is directed upwards into the room. The XPS core is lightweight yet strong, offering both insulation and structural support.\u003cbr\u003e2.    \u003cstrong\u003eFibre-Reinforced Cementitious Layer on Each Side:\u003c\/strong\u003e The board features a \u003cstrong\u003efibre-reinforced cementitious layer on both sides,\u003c\/strong\u003e making it exceptionally durable and suitable for direct tiling. This layer enhances the structural integrity of the board, ensuring it can handle the weight of tiles and other floor finishes without compromising on performance. This eliminates the need for additional layers like tile backer boards, speeding up installation.\u003cbr\u003e3.    \u003cstrong\u003eRouted Grooves for 12mm Pipe:\u003c\/strong\u003e The board is pre-routed with\u003cstrong\u003e four grooves at 100mm centres,\u003c\/strong\u003e specifically designed to hold 12mm underfloor heating pipes securely in place. These grooves ensure precise pipe spacing for optimal heat distribution and allow for quick and efficient pipe installation without the need for clips or ties.\u003cbr\u003e4.   \u003cstrong\u003e Tile Directly on Top: \u003c\/strong\u003eOne of the key benefits of the ExpressDeck panel is that tiles can be laid directly on the boards cementitious surface. This eliminates the need for additional materials or layers, streamlining the installation process and reducing overall project time and costs.\u003cbr\u003e5.   \u003cstrong\u003e Panel Size (1200 x 600 x 16mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e Each panel measures \u003cstrong\u003e1200mm by 600mm,\u003c\/strong\u003e with a thickness of \u003cstrong\u003e16mm.\u003c\/strong\u003e The panel covers \u003cstrong\u003e0.72m²\u003c\/strong\u003e, making it suitable for small to medium-sized areas. The compact size also makes it easier to handle and fit into various spaces during installation.\u003cbr\u003e6.    \u003cstrong\u003eGroove Spacing (100mm Centres):\u003c\/strong\u003e The grooves are set at \u003cstrong\u003e100mm centres\u003c\/strong\u003e, offering an ideal balance between heat distribution and energy efficiency. This close pipe spacing is particularly useful in rooms that require a more concentrated and even heat output, such as bathrooms or kitchens.","brand":"ExpressUFH","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":61306251510090,"sku":"EX12x6 ND SFPC16-100","price":25.33,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0943\/8973\/1658\/files\/novadeck.jpg?v=1753813688","url":"https:\/\/expressufh.co.uk\/products\/expressdeck-floor-routed-xps-insulation-board-with-reinforced-cement-layer-12mm-pipe-100mm-centres","provider":"Express Underfloor Heating","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
