Fastwarm 12.5mm Tile Backer Board

The ultra-light weight backer board can be easily cut to size or to work around fixed appliances using a craft knife and are perfect for transporting on site due to their lightweight but strong structure.

Tile backer boards can be mechanically fixed to timber subfloors using screws and washers and / or fixed to solid subfloors using a flexible tile adhesive. The boards are moisture resistant and will reduce movement within the subfloor, making tiling on top of the system very simple.

• Fastwarm Tile Backer Boards are waterproof
• Approved by Ultra Tile adhesive manufacturers
• Super high insulation values per m2
• Suitable for wet rooms and replacing plasterboard in bathrooms
• Excellent sound insulation
• Cuts with a utilty knife
• Can be used on walls and floors (correct installation method must be followed - please check)
• Amazing heat insulation with thermal conductivity value of 0.034 W/mK making them the ideal choice for use as a thermal barrier with underfloor heating systems

Each board is 1200x600 (0.72m2) and come in 6mm, 10mm, 12.5mm thicknesses to cater for all needs.

For example, for a room 2m x 5m (10m2) you would require 14 boards.

Our Tile Backer Boards have been engineered to withstand compression values of up to 30 tonnes per m2, whilst being extremely lightweight, highly efficient and competitively priced - making this durable thermal insulation a perfect choice for use when installing electric underfloor heating on to a concrete, screed or wooden subfloor.

Please note: Flexible tile adhesive is required under both concrete, screed and wooden subfloor installations but a further fixing method is required when applying on to a wooden subfloor (mechanical fixing of screws & washers at 300mm intervals).
