Dry underfloor heating systemS refer to a form of underfloor heating that does not use traditional cement or concrete backfill. Instead, heating elements (such as cables, heating mats, or hot water pipes) are directly installed on special modules or insulation layers, and then covered with floor materials (such as hardwood flooring, tiles, etc.). Compared with wet underfloor heating, it is lighter, thinner, and faster, making it particularly suitable for renovation projects or spaces with strict requirements on floor height.
Traditional wet underfloor heating requires about 5-7 centimeters of cement leveling layer, while the thickness of dry systems is usually between 15-30 millimeters, greatly reducing the floor height occupation. This is especially suitable for the renovation of old houses, apartments, or duplex residences, without worrying about the floor load and height compression issues.
Since the heating elements are closer to the surface of the floor, heat loss is minimal, and the heating speed of dry systems is significantly better than traditional underfloor heating. Some electric-type dry systems can heat up to a comfortable temperature in just 15-30 minutes, making them an ideal choice for "instant heating."
No wet work is required, the installation process is cleaner, and the drying time is short. Dry systems are suitable for combination with modular floors and floating installation schemes. The construction period can be shortened to 1-2 days, greatly improving renovation efficiency.
Dry underfloor heating uses highly efficient insulation materials that concentrate heat conduction upwards, reducing heat loss. Especially with the assistance of intelligent temperature control systems, it can precisely adjust the temperature according to room usage habits, effectively reducing energy consumption.
Dry underfloor heating is compatible with solid wood, multi-layer composite, tiles, stone, and other types of flooring. The design is flexible and not restricted by too many materials, meeting the aesthetic and functional needs of different spaces.
With the development of smart home systems, dry underfloor heating is gradually linked with temperature control apps and voice control systems. Users can remotely control the operational status of the underfloor heating, achieving personalized energy management.
The dry underfloor heating systems, with their notable advantages of being lightweight, fast, and energy-efficient, provides a more efficient and comfortable heating experience for modern homes and commercial buildings. Whether it is new construction or renovation, it is an ideal heating solution worth choosing. In the future, with technological advances and material innovations, dry underfloor heating will continue to shine towards a "greener and smarter" direction.
The SOHO dry floor heating system is a screed-free underfloor heating solution that utilizes prefabricated high-strength XPS insulation boards with Ω-shaped grooves for efficient pipe layout. It enables quick installation, uniform heat distribution, and high energy efficiency. Featuring an integrated aluminum heat dissipation layer, the system reduces energy consumption by over 25% and structural load by up to 120 kg/m², while saving 50–70 mm in floor height. Ideal for residential, commercial, and renovation projects, SOHO’s XPS panels are fluorine- and bromine-free, SGS-certified non-toxic, and free of heavy metals and formaldehyde, making the system both safe and environmentally friendly. Compatible with various floor types such as tile and wood, it delivers excellent compressive strength (>1000 KPa) for long-term performance. Its dry, prefabricated design shortens construction time significantly—allowing for immediate floor covering—offering a fast, sustainable, and comfortable heating solution.
