Efficiently Insulate Your Floors

Around 15% of energy can be lost through your uninsulated Floor. We have a Simple & Easy to install solution, for Wooden and Concrete floors, that will retain this energy!

EcoTec Floor-Foam Insulation Kit is a perfect solution, if you do not have access to the underside of your Floor. It is also the ideal product for those of you who do not want to remove floorboards – but want to insulate!

EcoTec Floor-Foam prevents cold air from penetrating rooms through concrete and timber floors. It also prevents condensation and drafts, whilst helping dampen sound.

Floor foam consists of 4mm of high-density foam with Highly Reflective True Aluminium Foil on either side.

Fitting Floor-Foam insulation is simple, by laying it directly onto the timber or concrete floor. Ensure the edges are together and seal joints and the perimeter with our 75mm Thermaseal True Aluminium Foil Joining Tape, which is also included in the Kit!

Floor foam is supplied in easy-to-handle 1.2m x 25m rolls covering 30 Square Metres. Supplied with a roll of ThermaSeal Foil Joining Tape 75mm x 50m and Free Next Working Day Delivery to the UK Mainland (When ordered before 2 pm).

Which Flooring is this Suitable for?

EcoTec Floor-Foam Insulation Kit helps increase heat retention below Carpets,  Hardwood, Laminate & Vinyl Floors.

If installing Vinyl Flooring we would recommend using a thin plyboard above the Floor Foam to give the Vinyl Floor a rigid surface to sit on.

expand_circle_down How-To Guides

How to insulate under Carpets, Laminate or Vinyl

  1. Rolling out and cutting

    Roll out your EcoTec FloorFoam to the appropriate length before cutting with scissors or a sharp blade. Cut where necessary for any radiator pipes.

  2. Stapling the FloorFoam

    Staple all the way around the FloorFoam that you have just put down with a Heavy Duty Staple Gun Kit. Trim around the edges for a neat finish. If the floor is concrete, this can be fixed down with a non-solvent adhesive or double sided tape.

  3. Time for the second layer

    Proceed with your second layer of Floor Foam, ensure it is butt jointed next to the first layer, it is important not to overlap the material. Repeat this step as required.

  4. Taping and Sealing

    Once you've installed your FloorFoam and sealed to the flooring, then proceed with taping the perimeter and butt joints with ThermaSeal Joining Tape. This will prevent moisture and draughts from rising through the floor.

  5. Installing Grippers (Carpet)

    If you are laying a carpet, you can then proceed to fix into place the grippers on top of the FloorFoam (this will not affect its performance). Once done, you can now proceed to lay your flooring underlay and cut directly into place on top of the FloorFoam.

  6. Laying your flooring

    If installing a Vinyl floor, we recommend to install a think plywood of 3-4mm thick over the FloorFoam, this will give the Vinyl a completely solid ground to sit on as per the manufacturers recommendations. Finally, you can now put down your carpet or laminate flooring and enjoy your warm, draught free living space!

How to Insulate a Concrete Floor

  1. Rolling out FloorFoam

    Start by rolling out FloorFoam Insulation either vertically or horizontally on the concrete floor. EcoTec FloorFoam can then easily be cut by using Multifoil Scissors or a Cutting Knife - Both available in our Multifoil Fitting Kit.

  2. Fixing Down Floor-Foam Insulation

    FloorFoam is fixed onto concrete floors by using Thermaseal Double Sided Tape, or Non-Solvent Glue. Ensure FloorFoam Insulation is fully taped and sealed on butt joints on the floor. Also tape FloorFoam around the perimeter. (Thermaseal Foil Tape is provided free of charge in the Insulation Kit). Taping and sealing ensures no draught or moisture can rise up through the floor.

  3. Install Preferred Final Flooring

    Once your concrete floor has been covered with FloorFoam, next you can install your desired flooring. Wood & laminate flooring can be installed directly on top of FloorFoam. We recommend to use a carpet and laminate underlay prior to a carpet or laminate being installed. If a vinyl or lino is being used, we would advise the use of a plywood over the top of the FloorFoam.

How to Insulate Above a Timber Floor

  1. Roll out & Cut FloorFoam

    Firstly, roll out EcoTec FloorFoam either horizontally or vertically on the timber floor. FloorFoam can then be cut to desired length. We recommend FloorFoam to be cut with a cutting knife or Multifoil Scissors (Available in Multifoil Fitting Kit)

  2. Stapling

    Staple EcoTec FloorFoam on your timber floor at around 300mm intervals. Ensure FloorFoam Insulation is butt jointed together on both horizontal and vertical sections.

  3. Taping and Sealing

    Fully tape and seal around the perimeter and butt joints using Thermaseal Foil Joining Tape (Provided free of charge in kit) Taping and sealing ensures no draught or moisture can rise up through the floor.

  4. Install Desired Flooring

    Once the timber floor is fully covered with FloorFoam Insulation, you can then proceed to install your desired flooring. If carpet is installed, the use of an underlay is advised prior to the carpet. Laminate or wood floors can be installed directly on top of FloorFoam. If a vinyl or lino is being used, we would advise the use of a plywood over the top of the FloorFoam.

  1. Delivery 22 hours after order. Easy to cut and install no skills or kit needed. Too early to assess warmth performance

  2. Ordered the ecotec floor foam on Wednesday 13th January 2021 and it was delivered and fitted on top of my concrete floors the next day. In the winter my rooms were cold due to the concrete floors but that is a problem of the past, I write this review having not long woke from my first night with the floor foam being fitted and the difference in unbelievable. You’d have to be in my home to appreciate the difference. I’m over the moon.👍

  3. Fast delivery, excellent service. What a great product, easy to lay and what a difference it makes to the room. Highly recommend and will definitely be using again in the near future.

  4. Easy to use. Just what we wanted. Does the job just fine

expand_circle_down Q&As

Do I need to use underlay if I’m installing carpet over the top?

Yes, you definitely need to install underlay on top of the floor foam if you’re installing carpet. Floor-foam isn’t a replacement for underlay.

Can I use floor-foam in the bathroom and kitchen?

As long as the floor-foam is correctly sealed and protective flooring is laid on top you won’t have any issues with it getting mouldy, damp, or reacting with water.

How do I attach the floor-foam to concrete floors?

We sell Thermaseal double-sided tape that is perfect for this, or you can use a non-solvent adhesive.

Do I need to tape and seal the insulation?

Yes, you do need to tape and seal the FloorFoam otherwise draughts would still come up through the gaps in the insulation. Which would prevent the insulation from working at its best.

How much flooring will the EcoTec Floor-Foam Insulation Kit cover?

One kit will cover 30 square meters.

Will I need to buy an extra ThermaSeal Foil Joining Tape?

No, you shouldn’t need any extra tape one roll will cover 50m, if you do make any mistakes there is extra for you to use.

Do I need any extra protection between the insulation and the flooring I’m laying over the top?

We do recommend laying a thin layer of plywood over the floor-foam if you’re installing tile, vinyl, carpet tiles, or LVT flooring. This will give the flooring a completely solid surface to lay on. You don’t need to do this with carpet or laminate.

Can I use vinyl over FloorFoam?

Yes, however we would recommend installing a thin plywood over the FloorFoam before installing a vinyl.

What is the best way to cut FloorFoam?

We would recommend cutting FloorFoam with either Multifoil Scissors or a Cutting Knife. Both are available in our Multifoil Fitting Kit.

Is there discount on larger quantities?

We offer EcoTec FloorFoam Trade Pallet Deals, where you order 9 rolls per pallet and receive a discount on the rolls

Can carpet grippers be nailed through FloorFoam?

Yes, you can nail carpet grippers through FloorFoam. You can alternatively use a non-solvent adhesive.
