Floor Insulation and Finish in Renovation

    Hi,
    I have a subfloor laid with dpc and concrete slab. There's about 90 mm left to play with to get to floor finish level.

    I am wondering what the possible options are for a finish.
    With 90mm, could you get a reasonable insulation into the floor?

    Any advice in this area appreciated!

    little option but to use a 40mm easi screed + 50mm pur board . Better to use 40 screed + 60 PUR if you can .

    How tight for headroom are you ? - if not tight ( 2400mm is min ) and if you are going for underfloor heating - b regs min ( insulation ) will require 2 x 60mm PUR layers

    Could somebody please explain to me the difference in appearance and application of the different types of insulations, its a minefield out there!
    What is EPS, XPS, PIR, PUR, Phenolic, Rigid? etc.
