Rigidur & underfloor heating
Rigidur dry screed in combination with underfloor heating
Underfloor heating systems not only create a pleasant and cozy warmth, but they also offer many creative freedoms in room planning and design. They are used in new constructions as well as for retrofitting energy-efficient renovations in older buildings.
The conversion, e.g., to modern heat pumps in existing buildings, can be well combined with underfloor heating. For this application, a perfect combination is available: A dry screed made of Rigidur screed elements with an integrated underfloor heating system from ECOtherm.
In the Rigidur dry screed floor, an underfloor heating system with highly efficient heating performance is installed using the milling technology of ECOtherm GmbH.
Absolutely convincing is the low installation height of the systems and the quick installation without long drying times. Ideal for renovation or modernization work without sacrificing the cozy warmth of underfloor heating, and also usable when converting to modern heat pump systems.
Optimization of sound insulation for wooden beam ceilings
Rigidur dry screed floors significantly reduce impact noise (footfall sound) and thus make a substantial contribution to living comfort.
Two steps to a new floor with integrated underfloor heating
1. Installed Rigidur dry screed 2. Milled underfloor heating by ECOtherm

Rigips Compact: Rigidur® screed elements and underfloor heating - advantages and benefits at a glance
With Rigidur screed elements, insulation materials for soundproofing, and leveling compounds for height adjustment, secure, durable, and soundproof floors with a fire resistance class of up to F 90 can be created in combination with a floor heating system. Here is the practical example of the Waldorf School in Detmold.
Task
In the Waldorf elementary school, classrooms were created for 100 elementary students to support them in learning. The comfortable atmosphere created by the floor heating system was to be securely protected with a robust dry screed.
Solution
The use of Rigidur screed elements 20 ensures the fulfillment of all requirements for durability, fire protection, thermal conductivity, and sustainability. Processing in the angled rooms was also quick and easy.
Perfect Combinations
The most important feature of the combination of floor heating and dry screed is a slim structure, enabling the fastest and most efficient heat transfer possible.
Therefore, the Rigidur screed element with only 20 mm construction height is already suitable as dry screed. This ensures quick heating and precise temperature control. Furthermore, the Rigidur screed elements, combined with the matching Rigidur screed adhesive, are easy and quick to process. However, additional requirements for the floor structure often need to be met, such as soundproofing or fire protection, or height adjustment during renovation. Suitable combinations with additional insulation layers, as listed in the table below, are ideal for this purpose.
