This may be a dumb question but can you use all types of floor coverings
with underfloor heating, carpets etc.


More or less, some types of flooring don't like the raised
temperature but any modern flooring material will state if its
suitable for UF heating.

Surely underfelt would act like an insulator?


Yes it does - but it isn't a very good one and in practice makes no
noticeable difference. We have carpets, tiles and wood on various
floors in the house and all work. All have been tested and approved
for heat by the cats.
