About us

Thermopanel Products

Established in 2003, Thermopanel is a member of the Pedarson Group, committed to creating high quality wet room components at an attractive price. We produce a wide range of wet room products, including: tile backer insulation boards, waterproofing, walk-in shower trays, drains, shower screens, underfloor heating and wet room accessories.
At Thermopanel we love a good-looking wet room and the brand was created from a desire to ensure that the growing trend for wet rooms is accessible to everyone. However, at Thermopanel we believe that it is what’s underneath that truly counts. We encourage people to look beyond the facade and appreciate the importance of quality wet room foundations – because if it’s not properly waterproofed then it’s a damp room, not a wet room!

Create the backbone of your wet room with Thermopanel Tile Backer Boards
Thermopanel Tile Backer Insulation Boards are lightweight and easy to handle whilst providing superior waterproofing to your wet area. Available in a variety of sizes, they are incredibly versatile.
Thermopanel Tile Backer boards are specifically designed for two primary purposes –
As a first class heat insulation for underfloor heating systems. As a superior waterproof surface to fix wall or floor tiles.
· Tile backer boards are particularly suited to underfloor heating mats and under tile heating cable applications.
· Will accept even the heaviest wall tiles, unlike plasterboard. (correct installation method must be followed)
· Installation below underfloor heating systems on an existing un-insulated concrete or timber sub-floor will greatly reduce heat up time and running costs.
· Our Boards will reduce the warm up time of the heating and reduce your electricity bill.
· Excellent heat insulation with thermal conductivity value of 0.027 W/mK making them ideal for use as a thermal barrier with under floor heating
· Ideal for wetrooms · Tilebacker boards are waterproof and dimensionally stable (unlike plywood) · Excellent sound insulation: impact sound is greatly reduced

Installation Instructions For Tile Backer Boards

Timber Stud Walls
For walls made from stud, 10 or 12mm Thermopanel can be used for stud @ 300mm centres or 20mm Thermopanel if 600mm centres. Please ensure that all board edges are supported.

Fix Thermopanel to the studs using screws and Thermopanel washers (MSW36), the maximum spacing between fixings should be 300mm.

Solid Walls
Option 1 Screw Fixing Measure the Thermopanels and cut to size utilising a sharp knife or saw.

Wall plugs, screws and Thermopanel washers (MSW36) can be used at 300mm spacing to
fix to a solid wall

Solid Walls
Option 2 Tile Adhesive A 5 to 8mm trowel is used to comb flexible tile adhesive over the whole surface of the Thermopanel.

Stagger the Thermopanels brickwork fashion, pushing them firmly onto wall.

Solid Walls
Option 3 Drywall Fixing Apply Thermopanel Drywall Foam (TPDF) to Thermopanel, firstly around perimeter, then at (approx.) 300mm centres. Application to the board laid flat with its end against the wall is generally the quickest method for application to solid walls.

Allow the foam to cure for 4-5 minutes and then lever the board into position, then press firmly across the whole face of the board, starting at the top. Ensure the top and all edges receive as much pressure as the rest of the board.

Installation Instructions For Tile Backer Boards

Preparation for Tiles or Plaster Tiling
All joints should be taped using Thermopanel Joint Scrim Tape (IJT90) with the exception of wet areas where Thermopanel butyl tape (Btape) should be used. The wall can now be tiled.

Plastering. Seal the edges of the boards using Thermopanel adhesive/sealant (Thermofix) before applying the Thermopanel scrim tape (IJT90). Plaster can now be applied.

Floor Fixing Tile Adhesive
Use a 5-8mm trowel to apply a layer of flexible tile adhesive on to the base floor.

Place the Thermopanel down on the adhesive and push firmly down.

Floor Fixing Screws & Washers into Timber
Measure the Thermopanels and cut to size utilising a sharp knife or saw. Lay Thermopanel in the desired position.

Use screws and Thermopanel washers (MSW36) to fix the boards every 300mm to the wooden subfloor.

If further waterproofing is required, use Thermopanel adhesive / sealant (Thermofix) to seal the joints. Alternatively, in really wet areas use Thermopanel Butyl Tape (Btape)

The bench can be used inside heated buildings, particularly in areas with a high level of humidity such as bathrooms, steam baths and spas. Temperatures should not exceed 75°C.
Tiling / Plastering
The top of the bench must be tiled to ensure an adequate load distribution. All other surfaces can be covered with tiles, plaster or cladding. Please seek the adhesive manufacturer’s recommendations for use in areas with high levels of heat.
Electric Heating mat cable

Self Adhesive Sealing System

The VeloSeal self-adhesive sealing system is a highspeed solution for sealing bathrooms, wet rooms, and shower areas.

The system is designed to provide quick installation, in half the time it takes for standard tanking kit installs. Unlike traditional adhesive solutions, there is no need to mix and apply adhesive, making the installation process much faster and cleaner. VeloSeal is for use in conjunction with tiled and slab flooring, providing excellent performance and durability. VeloSeal is made with a Polyethylene and fleece webbing surface which provides an excellent surface to tile onto, combined with a self-adhesive backing.

Why Choose VeloSeal?
· Saves Time, Money and Mess · No Need for Tile Adhesives · Prevents the Introduction of Extra Moisture During Installation · No Drying Times · No Need for the Laborious Task of Cleaning Work Materials

Installation
1 The subfloor must be dry and free of any materials that would impair adhesion. It must be leveled and able to bear weight. Any repairs must be carried out prior to the installation of VeloSeal. Measure the wall surface before hand and pre-cut the sealing membrane.
2 Seal transitional areas between the wall and floor with VeloSeal Sealing Tape and Sealing Corners.
3 Slowly and evenly pull off the backing paper from the VeloSeal Membrane and press on the wall at the same time. Using a trowel apply pressure outwards in order to force out any air pockets. Overlap the mat joints by around 5-8cm with VeloSeal Sealing Tape. Make sure that the overlap bonding is waterproof.
4 Repeat the same steps as required on other walls, and lay the floor waterproofing using the same procedure.
5 You can now tile directly onto the VeloSeal matting.

Tanking Instructions

VODA Waterproofing, WPTAPE & ISOTAPE
The minimum area to be made waterproof is 1 metre up the height of the wall, and 1 metre into the room from the edge of the wetroom former. The aim is to bind the already waterproof materials, such as the Thermopanel boards with the wetroom former, to create one continuous material to the drain.
1 Check that the suitable substrate is sound, free of any contaminants, and re move any loose material. Any gaps should be filled with a flexible tile adhesive. Dilute the primer 1:1, and apply to the area.
2 Apply the silicone sealant to all gaps/joints in the boards, and where the pipes come through the walls.
3 Apply the liquid film membrane to all corners, the seam between the wetroom former and the surrounding floor/wall, to the area around protruding pipework and any joints on the wall boarding.
4 Embed the fabric membrane corner/s into the liquid film membrane, waterproof pipe collars around any protruding pipework and then apply the tape to the remaining joint areas.
Finally, cover the entire area with the 1-metre-wide fabric membrane, overlapping the taped joints, using the liquid film membrane already applied to bond the two layers together. ­ For 1m wide membrane sheets
5 Cover the fabric membrane with another layer of the liquid film membrane.
Please allow 12 hours between coats for the liquid film membrane to cure. After this, the area will now be ready to tile.

Tanking Instructions

Butyl
The minimum area to be made waterproof is 1 metre up the height of the wall, and 1 metre into the room from the edge of the wetroom former. The aim is to make the entire existing area surrounding the wetroom former one continuous waterproof material to the drain. 1 Check that the suitable substrate is sound, free of any contaminants, and
remove any loose material. Any gaps should be filled with a flexible tile adhesive. Dilute the primer 1:1, and apply to the area. 2 Install first the butyl corners, then the butyl tape to all joints between surfaces surrounding the area. Finally, install the 1-metre-wide Butyl Waterproofing membrane, overlapping all the tape/corner/s. 3 Apply the Butyl sealant to all gaps/joints, and where any pipework passes through the membrane. This area is now ready to tile.
