Application

  • Suitable for ultra low-profile retro fit applications.
  • Versatile for multi-purpose applications.

Description

The Fastwarm™ Solid18 panels are a gypsum-based panel which is floated across a flat surface allowing the product to be tiled or levelled to directly, without having to adhere panels to the subfloor. The plastic end return panel has multiple snap points to allow loops and leader to be positioned at either end of the room for pipe working to and from the manifold, making FastWarm™ Solid18 panel a popular choice for installers and home-owners due to their versatility and multi-purpose application.


The main component of Fastwarm® Solid18 is a 18 mm homogeneous, gypsum-based dry construction board with a paper fibre matrix, sealed during production.


Features and benefits:

  • Used for retro fit applications.
  • Pre-grooved at 150 mm to accommodate Fastwarm 12 mm pex al pex pipe. 
  • Solid18 panels utilizes a 18 mm high density dry screed board, which acts as a heat conducting surface, transferring the heat from the pipes to the floor above.
