Engineered hardwood floor is the best type of wood flooring for an underfloor heating system because it is stable and performs well with floor temperature changes. Different wood floors have different thermal properties, but softer and less dense woods may create a thermal barrier, blocking the heat instead of transferring it to the floor surface. Horn Ya’s engineered hardwood flooring is denser and thinner than other wood flooring; therefore, our products save the heat-up time and conduct the heat efficiently. Our engineered wood floors can be provided with different hardwood finishes and design options without sacrificing structural requirements. The wood flooring combined with Horn Yan alloy steel panel, which greatly enhances thermal conductivity, is perfect to use with underfloor heating.

Engineered hardwood is made up of hardwood layers laminated together. Because the wood grain is running in opposite directions in each layer and the layers are bonded together by high pressure, the engineered hardwood products are hardly affected by moisture which causes the wood to expand and deform. Engineered hardwood products are very stable and some offer greater structural strength than typical wood materials.
