Aquastop questions
Is Aquastop waterproof?
No. It is water resistant for 48 hours (8mm and 12mm) or 72 hours (14mm), which gives time to wipe up spills. Avoid excessive wetting, and check the Building Code before laying in wet areas.
Which thickness should I choose?
8mm and 12mm come in 1380 × 193mm boards with 48-hour protection. The 14mm board is a 2025 × 244mm wide plank with 72-hour protection.
Do I need an underlay?
Yes. Laminate floats over a separate underlay. Ask us which underlay suits your subfloor and whether you need extra acoustic performance.
Does it work with underfloor heating?
Only with in-slab hydronic heating.
