Many herringbone laminate floors are suitable for underfloor heating, provided they are correctly installed and combined with a suitable underlay.

Maintenance of herringbone laminate
Maintenance is simple. Regular vacuuming and light damp cleaning are sufficient. Avoid excessive water use to prevent damage to the core of the laminate.
