Ecofloor In-screed Underfloor Heating Cable Coverage at 200W/m²

Ecofloor In-Screed Underfloor Heating Cable – 200W/m²

The Ecofloor In-Screed Heating Cable, supplied by Eco Friendly Heating & Flooring, is a professional-grade electric underfloor heating solution designed specifically for new-build and renovation projects with screed floors.

With a powerful 200W/m² heat output and a durable 15W per linear metre cable, this system is ideal for primary heating in larger spaces or areas with higher heat loss, such as open-plan kitchens, extensions, and conservatories.

Designed for Screed Floor Installations

This heating cable is installed directly onto insulation boards and covered with a minimum 50mm screed layer. Once embedded, it delivers consistent, evenly distributed radiant heat across the entire floor surface.

The result is a highly efficient heating system that works with virtually any floor finish, making it one of the most flexible underfloor heating options available.
