Evening all,
Trying to find the best way to get the best insulation on a floor for a utility room. currently have 45mm to play with from concrete slab to finished floor.
ideas are either
bed tile backer insulation boards eg, 30-50mm, tile direct, use adaptor profile at threshold
joist out with 2x2, infill with pir, chipboard over
or, prep slab with 2mm levelling screed, lay 40-50mm celotex direct (plus dpm under), and lay floating floor on top.....conscious it may move, just wondered if anyone has successfully done this before in a low traffic small area. I'm guessing as per kingspan fitting instructions, I should prob float an 18mm t&g chipboard over the top for rigidity.
Any other suggestions to get the max insulation with such a shallow depth to work with very much appreciated. Flexi on types of finished floors. Was suggested vacuum panels but looks too niche to get hold of such a small quantity (7m2)
TIA
