What type of wood floor is best with radiant heating systems (UFH)?
The best flooring for installation above radiant heat systems is the plywood backed engineered plank flooring. Being manufactured with a laminated construction (not to be confused with laminate!) makes them more dimensionally stable and less susceptible to changes in temperature and humidity. Having said that, the fact is that it’s still a natural product and it must be appreciated as being one and expected to react/respond as one.
