YOUR WATERPROOF WOODEN FLOOR IN A BOAT DECK LOOK
marinaflexx® is a unique floor system. Thanks to its seamless workmanship and oiled surface, it is waterproof and therefore also suitable for wet and damp rooms.

Seamless processing is possible thanks to the flexx joint. This has been used in shipbuilding for a long time and creates a flexible wooden floor.
When it comes to wood, we only use Sonnberg parquet, which comes from sustainable forestry and is 100% made in Austria.

The interaction of wood and the flexx joint creates the unique look of the floor, which is reminiscent of a boat deck and now enables the warmth and texture of a parquet floor everywhere in residential and commercial use.

Sonnberg Marinaflexx must be glued over the entire surface with a plasticizer-free adhesive and also glued in tongue and groove on all sides with waterproof glue. Only by following these installation instructions can a joint-free wooden floor be created.

Guidelines for laying wooden floors on hot water underfloor heating and screeds in accordance with Ö-Norm B 5236

• General

  A coordination meeting must be held between all contractors involved. We ask you to let us know the date for this coordination meeting, only if the installation is carried out by Puchegger and Jilg. GmbH. If there is no appointment for a coordination meeting, we have hereby fulfilled our obligation to provide information. Wood has a suitable thermal resistance and an even heat distribution, so it is recommended for laying on underfloor heating. According to Ö-Norm 5236, glued parquet up to a thickness of 24 mm is permitted for underfloor heating. Wooden floors must be installed with full glue on almost all classic hot water underfloor heating systems.

• Preparation

  Lt. According to the Ö standard, a screed must be baked with underfloor heating. The temperature is increased gradually, a flow temperature of 45° is maintained for a longer period of time and then lowered again. It must be baked out until the screed is sufficiently dry. This baking process must be recorded and forwarded to us. If we do not receive a baking protocol, the parquet cannot be laid. If the agreed installation date is postponed, this may result in longer waiting times. The moisture content of the screed may be a maximum of 60 HM% at the time of laying. The measurement of the screed is carried out with the HM Box; the underfloor heating must be taken out of operation at the time of the moisture measurement.

• laying

  Basically, the parquet must be glued when laying on screed with underfloor heating. At the time of laying the floor covering, the surface temperature of the screed must be at least +15°C and must not exceed 20°C when the underfloor heating is switched on. Floating installation is not recommended due to the higher thermal resistance (insulating base plus possibly air cushioning) and the risk of a tear-off joint, and is also not permitted according to the Austrian standard.

• Parquet sensor (intelligent parquet floor)

  Our intelligent parquet floors are equipped with sensors that help you achieve a healthy indoor climate. These sensors are integrated into the underside of the parquet and measure temperature and humidity. You can synchronize the data daily using a free app on your smartphone or tablet.

  Your advantages:

  Healthy indoor climate

  Increasing the lifespan of your parquet floor

  Optimization of heating costs

• The underfloor heating in operation

  After the installation has been completed, the heating should not be brought to full power immediately, but should be operated slowly (approx. 1 week) at a low temperature. The maximum surface temperature of the screed must not exceed 28°C. For houses that comply with the new thermal insulation regulations, this value is significantly lower. If the parquet floor is covered with carpets when the underfloor heating is in operation, heat can build up underneath the carpet. The heat flow is disturbed at this point. In order to maintain the room temperature, the temperature in the underfloor heating increases. The consequences are rising heating costs and damage to the parquet and substructure.

• The indoor climate

  During the heating period, due to the room climate conditions, it cannot be ruled out that minor joints will appear between the parquet floorboards. However, this is not a quality defect, but rather a reaction to the natural building material wood. If you synchronize the sensors of our intelligent parquet floors cyclically (at least weekly), unhealthy indoor climate changes can be detected in a timely manner and countermeasures can be taken.
  In order to maintain a healthy indoor climate, we recommend keeping the relative humidity between 40 and 60%. If the air is too dry, use an electric humidifier based on evaporation or other suitable measures to humidify the air are recommended. Fiber openings or drying cracks can occur even if the humidity level falls below 45% just once.

To protect the quality of the parquet floor and avoid consequential damage, you should maintain a room temperature of 18-20 degrees and a humidity of 40-60%.

With underfloor heating, a surface temperature of 28 degrees must not be exceeded.

If the humidity in the room is too high, cupping or compression, hollow spots and discoloration of the edges occur.

If the air humidity is too low and the temperature is too high, joints and cracks occur in the wear layer.

We therefore recommend checking the room climate during the construction period or after handover in order to avoid the damage mentioned.

Wood is a natural product. Differences in color and structure are properties of the natural product wood. Deviations from the images and/or samples are therefore unavoidable and do not constitute a complaint.
