Application
Austrotherm PPG is a modern insulating panel / board for underfloor heating, made of EPS, with studs in a regular grid. It holds underfloor heating pipes with a diameter of 14 mm to 18 mm. The pink foil on the top of the panel protects the studs from mechanical damage during installation, which is why we recommend the panel rather than the board.
Austrotherm PPG boards are made in our plant in Niš (Serbia).
Advantages of Austrotherm PPG
Saves labour
- the system is laid quickly and easily
- no extra fixing of the heating pipes is needed, the studs hold them
- the interlocking joints prevent the pipes from shifting later
Saves material
- no fixing accessories for the heating pipes are needed
- with well-shaped edges, offcuts can be used completely
Saves labour and material
- in most cases no additional thermal insulation is needed
- thermal and acoustic bridges are avoided
Installation
With this board the underfloor heating system is laid quickly and easily. The studs in a regular grid allow the heating pipes to be laid in the number and spacing needed for the desired heating output. The pipe spacing can be 50 mm, 100 mm, 150 mm and so on (in steps of 50 mm). When the cement screed is poured over the system, it must reach at least 45 mm above the top of the heating pipes, to prevent the screed from cracking under the thermal stresses caused by the hot water in the pipes. All other services (e.g. electrical) can also be laid in the board.

Indicative calculation
How many packs?
Packs from our own packing lists: area ÷ m² per pack, rounded up. With a target U-value the calculator shows the indicative insulation thickness d = λ × R.
Enter the area to see the number of packs.
Indicative only — the final choice and thickness are confirmed by your designer or Austrotherm technical support. The thickness estimate takes the insulation layer alone (R = 1/U) and does not check any regulation.
