Almost all ICF suppliers have a concrete flooring beam product that attaches to the wall. All normally show UFH embedded in these floors.
Am I being a bit dumb in suggesting that this is a huge thermal bridge / dump of 30'C floor heat into the 10-15'C concrete wall core. And hence a big waste of floor heating energy into the wall core.
Am I missing something?
I'm looking to design in wet UFH floors for basement, ground and first floor, but dont see how ICF decks can be used on the ground and first floors without thermal bridging to the walls, ( basement will be insulated slab )
Someone please tell me I am being stupid !!!
