EXPERT ADVICE SPOTLIGHT WHY DO YOU NEED A SUBFLOOR? If you are looking for a high quality, easy to install subfloor option that will keep your basement warm and comfortable all year long, DRICORE Subfloor panels offer the perfect solution. DRICORE is the one-step engineered subfloor solution that is specifically designed for basements. The raised moisture barrier covers cold, damp concrete to protect, insulate and cushion your finished floors. Traditionally, basements are cold and damp spaces that are prone to moisture problems. Installing a proper subfloor is the most effective way to prevent those problems and create a space that is warm, soft and dry. SAVE ENERGY: Up to 25% of your home’s heat energy is lost through the foundation and concrete slab floor! Insulating your basement floor actually improves the thermal performance of your entire home! CREATE COMFORT: Constant, repetitive walking or standing on concrete floors can cause cumulative pain and fatigue. A subfloor will provide added shock absorbency by raising the floor from the hard concrete. DRICORE Subfloor panels are strong enough to stand up to heavy home furnishings, like home gym equipment, pianos, pool tables, etc. Add your favorite flooring or leave the DRICORE as is. Thousands of homeowners have chosen to simply apply a few coats of polyurethane to create a great storage area or place for the kids to play! With a DRICORE Subfloor you can have a strong, clean and stable subfloor that you can count on.
