FAQs

Can this underlay be used with underfloor heating?

This underlay is primarily designed for insulation and comfort; please verify the specific compatibility requirements of your underfloor heating system before installation.

How much area does one roll cover?

One roll of the Underfoot 10mm Carpet Underlay provides 15m² of coverage.

Is this product suitable for high-traffic areas like stairs?

While it is durable, it is best suited for residential living areas and bedrooms. Always follow the carpet manufacturer's recommendations regarding suitable underlay density for stairs.

How do I cut the underlay to fit my room?

The lightweight PU foam can be easily cut to size using a standard, sharp utility knife or heavy-duty scissors.

Does it require specific adhesive?

For most installations, securing the seams with professional-grade carpet underlay tape is sufficient.

Troubleshooting

Visible ridges under the carpet after installation

Ensure that all seams between underlay strips are butted together tightly and taped securely to create a uniform, flat surface.

Movement or shifting of the underlay

Use double-sided carpet tape to secure the perimeter of the underlay to the subfloor before laying the carpet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly improves underfoot comfort
  • High 39dB sound reduction rating
  • Excellent thermal insulation (2.60 tog)
  • Lightweight and easy to handle
  • Helps extend the lifespan of installed carpets

Cons

  • Requires a perfectly flat subfloor for optimal performance
  • Not intended for high-traffic commercial spaces
  • Large roll size requires adequate storage space prior to use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your subfloor is clean, dry, and free of debris. Lay the underlay with the smooth side facing up, ensuring the seams are joined tightly and secured with high-quality adhesive tape. The material is compatible with most standard residential carpet types. For maintenance, avoid dragging heavy furniture across the carpet, as this can cause uneven wear. Periodically vacuuming your carpets will prevent dust buildup, which helps maintain the long-term integrity of both the carpet and the underlying foam layer.
