The technical installations are laid on the concrete or wood planking foundation.

When the technical systems are installed, a dry substructure is created composed of insulating mineral granulate on top of which is laid a wood fibre panel and a gypsum fibre panel.

This dry underfloor built to cover the installations has a wood or cork fibre panel placed on top of it.

The staple is used to attach the radiant piping.

The sand is brought to the work site already dried in bags with a granulometric curve (patented in the Turin Polytechnical College), ideal for heat transfer.

Dry substructure in dried sand created in the floor above the underfloor heating installation.

Greaseproof paper or transpiring material is placed above the sand layer, to create a vapour barrier.

Underfloor created with hard gypsum fibre panels.

The solid tapped wood parquet is directly nailed to the hard gypsum-fibre underfloor.

On completion of the work the surface of the parquet is perfectly calibrated (the innumerable gaps between one plank and the other are absent, unlike in the bonded version).

The parquet is covered with a sealant nylon layer to protect from atmospheric humidity and from subsequent work.
