Because of its inherent characteristics, any type of wood flooring must be very carefully specified, selected and installed. This is never more critical than when fitted over an underfloor heating system. Unlike mafi, many manufacturers of engineered wood flooring reduce costs by using an inferior timber for the bottom layer, in the mistaken belief that it is not seen and therefore can be of a low-grade material. For this reason you cannot place underfloor heating with most timber flooring products. mafi timber wood planks, top and bottom layers, are made from the same wood species, allowing for identical expansion and contraction characteristics, to allow any stress or strain forces to be cancelled out through the core layer. Only this type of engineered construction provide the dimensional integrity to withstand the more extreme humidity and temperature changes that underfloor heating subjects a wood floor to, without warping or distortion.
