Therma-Floor is a gypsum underlayment designed
to pour over hot water tubes or electric heating cables. It acts
as the thermal mass for any radiant floor system. Therma-Floor encases
the tubes or cables in crack resistant, non-combustible gypsum. Its
special formula resists breakdown to 150 °F
(66 °C). And because it’s poured
only 1 ¼ " (32 mm) thick, the heating system is more responsive
and more comfortable.
