Heating mats are made from a self-adhesive mesh scrim with a heating cable attached. The mat design enables fast installation and an even heat distribution across the whole floor area.
Mats are 500mm wide. They come complete with a 3m cold tail connection and are available in a wide range of lengths, from 1 to 24m, and two power output densities.
The 150W/square metre mat is suitable for internal applications including kitchens, bathrooms and living areas.
The 200W/square metre mat is recommended for conservatories or areas prone to high heat losses.
Heating mats can be installed on top of either suspended timber floors, or solid concrete floors, enabling installation in all room types. Ideal floor coverings for use with this system include ceramic, stone, slate, porcelain, marble, limestone and terracotta.
All electically heated floors must be controlled by a thermostat connected to a floor temperature probe. By directly measuring the floor temperature, the thermostat ensures that the floor tempertaure can not rise beyond the specified limit.
Insulation must always be installed below the heating mat to reduce heat losses into the sub-floor. This improves performance and reduces running costs.
Electric heating systems should be installed, tested and commissioned strictly in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and by a qualified installer. It is advised to test the cable before, during and after installation. The use of an RCD breaker is recommended.
