Under-slab application

Direct heat toward the surface.

Place a reflective bubble layer beneath radiant heating systems to help keep useful energy moving upward rather than into the ground.

Why it matters

Heat moves in every available direction.

Without a suitable thermal break below an under-slab heating system, part of the generated energy can move downward into the ground instead of warming the intended surface.

ECO-Shield bubble products add a reflective layer below the heating assembly. This helps direct radiant energy upward and can support warm-floor and snow-melting applications when incorporated into a properly designed system.

Under-slab benefits

Keep useful heat on target.

Reflect heat upward

Help limit radiant energy moving below the heating assembly and into the ground.

Add a moisture barrier

Bubble constructions provide a low-permeability layer suited to below-slab conditions.
