Aluminium Plates
Aluminium Heat Spreader Plates are an essential component of modern wet underfloor heating systems, designed to improve heat distribution, installation efficiency, and overall system performance. Manufactured from high‑quality aluminium, these plates help transfer heat evenly across the floor surface, ensuring faster warm‑up times and improved energy efficiency.
Each plate features a precision‑formed omega‑shaped groove, engineered to securely grip and hold underfloor heating pipe in place. This offers a significant advantage over traditional straight U‑channel plates, as the omega profile provides a tighter, more reliable fit, reducing the risk of pipe movement during installation and ensuring consistent contact for optimal heat transfer.
These double‑groove aluminium spreader plates are ideal for suspended floor systems, where they are laid directly over floor joists or timber battens. They are designed to suit standard 400 mm joist centres, but can typically be adapted on site to accommodate variations in spacing, making them a flexible solution for both new builds and retrofit projects.
