Do I need insulating fabric under the laminate if I have UFH

by infinitybeach » Tue Apr 07, 2009 10:20 am

I have wet underfloor heating,then screed & next want to lay laminate flooring.

Is it essential to put insulation fabric under the laminate? I don't want to add insulating layers between us & the underfloor heating.

(I've heard people say that the insulation provides some 'give' in the flooring making it more comfortable but surely if we tiled onto the screed flooring, that would be pretty hard anyway)?
