  • Advantages of MC Therm dry screed systems

    âś” Low installation height: With a minimum installation height of just 50 mm including dry screed, MC Therm underfloor heating systems are ideal for modernization projects. Especially in older buildings or attics where space is limited, the system enables efficient integration of underfloor heating without the need for complex renovations.

    âś” Fast installation: Because it's a drywall system , no drying time is required. This means the heating can be used immediately after installation. This makes the system particularly suitable for renovations where a short construction time is crucial.

    âś” Versatility & Flexibility: MC Therm dry screed systems are compatible with virtually all common floor coverings, including parquet, laminate, tile, carpet, or vinyl . Thanks to the even heat distribution, the system ensures a pleasant indoor climate and a comfortable living atmosphere.

  • Construction and installation

    The MC Therm dry screed system is cleverly designed and allows for simple and efficient installation . First, the prefabricated screed elements with integrated channels for the heating pipes are laid on the floor. The pipes are then precisely placed in the channels and covered with a final layer of dry screed panels or other suitable materials.

    Since no wet screed is required, long waiting times are eliminated, and the floor can be further worked on immediately after installation. If necessary, an additional insulation layer can be integrated beneath the system to minimize heat loss to the subfloor and further improve energy efficiency.

  • Recommendations for use

    🏡 Upper floors & low installation heights: MC Therm underfloor heating is particularly suitable for rooms with low ceilings or limited space. Its slim design largely maintains the original room height while simultaneously integrating an efficient heating system .

    🏠 Ground floor & basement: In areas with higher heat loss , such as ground floors or basements, the system can be supplemented with an additional layer of insulation. This keeps the heat in the room longer and reduces energy costs .

    đź›  Ceiling and wall heating: Thanks to their flexible design, MC Therm systems can be used not only in the floor but also as wall or ceiling heating . This solution is particularly suitable for older buildings without underfloor heating , as it can be retrofitted without major structural changes. Wall or ceiling heating provides even, pleasant radiant heat , significantly improving living comfort.

Frequently asked

What are the disadvantages of the drywall system?

Although drywall underfloor heating offers many advantages, there are also a few points to consider. The subfloor should be as level as possible, as only unevenness of approximately 2–3 mm can be compensated for. Larger unevenness must be corrected beforehand with additional measures such as filler or leveling filler.

Another disadvantage is the higher cost compared to traditional renovation systems. The materials and the more precise installation can be more expensive. Furthermore, depending on the system, the installation height is higher than with other underfloor heating systems, which should be taken into account in rooms with low ceilings.

Despite these aspects, drywall construction offers impressive advantages due to its quick installation, low moisture exposure, and high responsiveness, making it particularly attractive for renovations and refurbishments. ✅🔥

How does underfloor heating work in drywall construction?

Drywall underfloor heating is not embedded in wet screed, but rather integrated into special drywall systems. The heating pipes are inserted into designated milled or grooved sections of the system panels and then covered with drywall panels. This construction method allows for quick installation, as no drying time is required. Furthermore, the heating system responds particularly quickly to temperature changes, as the heat is transferred directly to the floor covering.

What are the advantages of combining underfloor heating and drywall construction?

Underfloor heating in drywall construction offers numerous advantages:

✔ Fast installation – No long waiting times due to screed drying
✔ Lightweight – Perfect for old buildings and wooden beam ceilings
✔ High energy efficiency – Fast heat-up time & even heat distribution
✔ Flexible combinations – Suitable for parquet, laminate, tiles & carpet
✔ Ideal for renovations – No moisture penetration into the building structure

Thanks to these properties, the drywall system is particularly suitable for renovations and modernizations.

Is underfloor heating in drywall suitable for renovations?

Yes! Drywall underfloor heating is an ideal solution, especially for renovations and older buildings. Because it doesn't introduce additional moisture into the building and requires only a low installation height of approximately 50 mm, it's perfectly suited for renovation projects. Drywall construction is particularly effective for wood-beam ceilings or buildings with limited load-bearing capacity due to its low weight. Furthermore, the system can be installed quickly and easily, eliminating long waiting times.

Which floor coverings are compatible with drywall underfloor heating?

Drywall underfloor heating can be combined with most floor coverings:

✔ Tiles & natural stone – Very good heat conduction & storage capacity
✔ Parquet & laminate – Well suited if approved for underfloor heating
✔ Vinyl & design flooring – thin and fast heating
✔ Carpet – Works if the thermal resistance is low


It is important that the floor covering is approved for underfloor heating to ensure efficient heat transfer.

How much does drywall underfloor heating cost compared to wet screed systems?

The initial cost of drywall underfloor heating is often somewhat higher than that of traditional wet screed systems. This is due to the specially developed drywall panels and the more complex installation. However, the system offers many advantages: shorter drying times, faster installation, and a faster response time. In the long run, energy-efficient heating with drywall underfloor heating can help save heating costs.
