YBS FloorQuilt
YBS FloorQuilt
Insulate Your Floors with YBS FloorQuilt
YBS FloorQuilt is designed to insulate solid floors beneath screeds where floor height is an issue.
It is also perfect for use in conjunction with underfloor heating pipes as the foil layers will help prevent any heat loss through the subfloor.
This product consists of 13 layers of highly reflective foil, PE Foam, and an integrated grid membrane enabling easy installation for heating pipes.
At only 6mm thick FloorQuilt is equivalent to around 18mm of Rigid Board (PIR) such as Kingspan, making it a great space-saving home insulation solution!
YBS FloorQuilt can be used alongside Rigid Board Insulation and can also be doubled up to create a more thermally efficient floor.
We recommend fully taping and sealing any joins and the perimeter of the FloorQuilt with our Thermaseal Foil Joining Tape.
See our Fitting and Data Sheet below for more information on YBS FloorQuilt and instructions on the installation process.

How to Install FloorQuilt
-
Ensure floor is clean and free from debris.
Just ensure no dirt, so nothing is trapped beneath and there are no bumps.
-
Lay YBS FloorQuilt on to Solid Floor
You need to start at the wall edge and ensure that the FloorQuilt overlaps the wall edge by a minimum of 100mm. If you need to cut the FloorQuilt product, you can do so easily with either our Multifoil Insulation Scissors or our Cutting Knife (available in the multifoil fitting kit)
-
Butt Joint
When installing the next layers, ensure that the material is butt jointed up to the next layers. Use the Thermaseal Foil Joining Tape to cover the joints where they meet.
-
Install Screed / Underfloor Heating
If you are not installing underfloor heating then you should now move on to the screed, in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. If you are installing underfloor heating, then we advise that you use the gridding outer membrane on the Floor Quilt to assist you with installing the hot water piping.
Do I need to tape FloorQuilt?
Yes, we would recommend butt joining FloorQuilt up to the next layer. We recommend our Thermaseal Foil Joining Tape to seal these layers. When the insulation is taped and sealed it will also work as a high performance DPM
What is FloorQuilt made from?
FloorQuilt consists of 13 layers of PE Foams and reflective foils. The top layer is a clear plastic layer with an integrated grid membrane, to enable an easier installation for heating pipes
Can I board over the top of FloorQuilt?
We only recommend FloorQuilt to be screeded over the insulation. Once the insulation is covered with a screed, then a timber board can be installed.
Can I use FloorQuilt alongside PIR Insulation?
Yes, you can use FloorQuilt in conjunction with PIR Insulation. We would recommend installing the PIR Insulation first, then follow with FloorQuilt.
What is FloorQuilt equivalent to in PIR Insulation?
1 Layer of our 6mm FloorQuilt is equivalent to approx 18mm PIR Insulation
Can I double up on FloorQuilt and use two layers?
Yes, we can recommend using a double layer of FloorQuilt for double the performance.
How do I cut FloorQuilt?
We recommend cutting FloorQuilt using Multifoil Scissors. These can be found in our Multifoil Fitting Kit.
