It is therefore recommended to take into account the thickness of the floors when you want to lay a floor. Incidentally, it can differ per brand and floor section how thick it is. At Solza-it.staging.clonabledemo.net we clearly indicate this with every product. Sounds from the floor Laminate is and generally feels harder than a PVC floor.
This brings us to yet another Difference between PVC and laminate .
Laminate floors are known for the fact that they generally make a relatively large amount of noise when walking over them. At Solza-it.staging.clonabledemo.net we call this "click-clack sounds". Especially when someone wears shoes you can hear the footsteps very well. Not equally desirable for everyone or in every situation. PVC floors are a lot softer and do not have such a running sound. Incidentally, the Floer brand has a nice solution for this nowadays.
Are you going to lay a laminate floor and do you not want to suffer from walking noises?
Then use the Non-contact subfloor . This subfloor has been specially developed for reducing running noise. See a video of Floer below in which they tell you more about the Contactless underfloors. In general, this is done by a professional. Click PVC is generally a lot easier to install because these types of floors can be connected to each other by a click system. A wear layer or anti-scratch finish? After all, you click it together like laminate, but the material from which this floor is produced is PVC.
A fact that regularly goes round is that PVC floors are more scratch resistant than laminate, but this is completely untrue.
Laminate has a hard anti-scratch layer and therefore it is quite difficult to achieve a scratch in laminate. PVC floors have a wear layer that is generally 0.55mm thick. So easy!
1. So PVC floors are generally a bit more sensitive than laminate flooring.
An advantage of a scratch in PVC floors compared to laminate is that scratches in PVC floors can often be repaired, with laminate you may have the Laminate boards need to replace . Combining floor with underfloor heating Perhaps the most frequently asked question of the past period; Are all types of flooring to be combined with underfloor heating? The answer to this question is not very easy to answer with yes or no, but needs a little more explanation. In principle, you can lay almost any floor, when properly processed, on a surface with underfloor heating. The point for attentiveness, however, is then the way these floors handle processing the heat. As a rule, PVC is a better conductor of heat and so a PVC floor will generally allow the heat that a floor heating produces to pass faster. Less heating and therefore saving in euros on the energy bill.
2. In addition to conducting heat, heat resistance is also an important factor to pay attention to.
Is a product at Solza-it.staging.clonabledemo.net suitable for underfloor heating? Then we also show the heat resistance. This heat resistance indicates how well a floor allows the heat to pass through. The lower the heat resistance, the better. Incidentally, you will also find numerous in our range Laminate flooring suitable for underfloor heating , Only the heat will get through here less well and quickly. Earlier we already wrote the blog" PVC floor and underfloor heating ". This may also be interesting to read! Both available in multiple laying patterns Now that we have named some differences, it is also nice to name some similarities. Laminate and PVC floors have the common denominator that they can provide many laying patterns. For example, both floors are of course available in the straight boards, with laminate also available in Extra wide laminate . In addition, both types of flooring are available in both Fish bone And Whalebone . That is possible at Solza-it.staging.clonabledemo.net !
