Frequently Asked Questions
Is this board compatible with electric underfloor heating mats and cables?
Yes — this board is specifically designed to be used beneath electric UFH mats and loose-lay cables to improve heat efficiency and reduce running costs. It is compatible with all Aqua Elegance 150W heating mats and loose-lay cables.
How many packs do I need for my room?
Each pack covers 3.6m² (5 boards at 600×1200mm each). To calculate how many packs you need, measure your room area in m² and divide by 3.6, rounding up to the nearest whole pack. For example, a 7.2m² bathroom would require 2 packs. If you’re unsure, contact us at customerservice@bubblegumbathrooms.co.uk and we’ll help you calculate the right quantity.
Can this board be used on walls as well as floors?
Yes — the board is moisture resistant and suitable for use on both walls and floors, making it ideal for full bathroom refurbishments where you want a stable, flat tiling surface throughout.
Will 6mm add significant height to my floor?
At just 6mm, the profile increase is minimal and in most cases will not cause issues with door clearances or transitions to adjacent floor coverings. However, we recommend checking door clearances before installation, particularly in older properties with lower door thresholds.
Can I order if the item shows as out of stock?
Yes — you can still place your order even if this item shows as out of stock. We will contact you with an estimated lead time once your order is placed. For further queries, please contact us at customerservice@bubblegumbathrooms.co.uk.
