Quick to install
Clean and prepare floor
Apply a primer over the entire floor or apply spray adhesive at opposing ends of the room on to which the fixing tape can be stuck.
Measure floor area
Measure the floor excluding areas under fixtures and a perimeter of 100mm along
walls and obstacles.
Calculate cable spacing
Divide the available floor area by the length of the heating cable, and multiply by 1,000.
Attach cable to floor
Unroll the lead from the cable spool, securing it directly below the provision for the thermostat. Then, use fixing tape to attach the cable to the floor.
Install sensor
Position the floor temperature sensor between two runs of the cable and at least 150mm from the wall. Then, pull the cold leads and sensor lead into the wall leaving the black cable connections fixed to the floor.
Secure and protect
Optionally, secure and protect the cable using a self-adhesive fiberglass mesh or an application of a suitable leveling product.
Electrical safety
In certain Australian states the installation of a floor heating system may constitute prescribed electrical work and must be performed by a qualified tradesperson.
In New Zealand, floor heating systems can be installed by any competent person. However, connection of the thermostat must be performed by a licensed electrician.
