UNDERFLOOR HEATING
CASE STUDY: BRIMSTONE SPA When a luxury spa development required products to
withstand extensive amounts of heat and humidity, a full system solution of adhesives, grouts and ancillary products from BAL was chosen for the job.
Featuring stunning tiling throughout in a demanding environment, including electric and water-fed underfloor heating systems, the new Brimstone Spa complex at the Langdale Estate Hotel in Cumbria oozes elegance and sophistication.
The 990m2 development includes treatment rooms,
thermal experiences, including a Himalayan salt steam grotto, an outdoor sauna, and a heated relaxation infinity pool that spans from indoor to outdoor.
BAL worked extensively with project architects Unwin Jones, main contractors MedLock, and Ceramtek from design to completion, including a full written M40 specification, specification support from BAL’s Specification Support Team and on-site support from BAL’s Product Support Technicians.
As a result, BAL tile adhesives, grouts, sealants and preparation products – including waterproofing and levelling - were all supplied for phase three of the £4.5 million project.
With changes in humidity and temperature, the project required a range of specialist products to cope with additional movement from thermal changes.
Products specified included BAL Level Max levelling compound with Fibre Strand Technology (FST), BAL Single Part Flexible tile adhesive and BAL Stone & Tile PTB tile adhesives, which are all highly-polymer modified for extra flexibility.
BAL Micromax2 anti-mould grout, with colour-matched BAL Micromax sealant, was specified throughout the project and is also specifically formulated with increased flexibility to cope in all environments including showers, wet rooms and heated floors.
