Product Name & Model:
Electric Under Tile Heating Cable
Single Conductor (2.5 to 3.0mm Thickness)
Product Description & Pictures:
FEELWARM under tile heating system is a fantastic investment in your room's comfort adding a luxurious feel to the floors. Such system is a series of electric under tile heating cables which can be installed under the floor covering including tiles, porcelain, stone, carpet, laminate, solid wood and vinyl.
FEELWARM under tile loose heating cables allow for a simple and speedy set-up, and they can be combined and patch-worked into the room to customized the coverage. Our heating cables are specifically ideal for time-restricted environments such as residential multi-housing and commercial units.
Cable Sizes & Specifications:
Note: Other unconventional power rate and sizes can be customized.
Heating Cable Construction:
Note: Twin Conductor VS. Single Conductor
Available Cold Tail (Power Lead):
2 wire (copper) cold tails (oval), 1 wire (copper) with earth braid (tinned copper) cold tails (round).
Note: More Info of Cold Tail
Advantages:
1. Ultra-thin thickness ensures minimum floor height.
2. Single conductor design with two connection leads and earth shield integrated makes cost less expensive, and allows easy wiring and safe operation in wet area.
3. Loose spooled cable, provides simple, speedy and DIY installation and uniform heat output.
4. A large range of standard sizes which can be mixed and matched, fits the caculated floor coverage with minimum number of cables.
5. Other merits, include 100% efficient at converting electricity into heat, low initial installation fee and ongoing running costs, long lifetime, free of maintenance, suitable for nearly any type of floor covering etc.
Applications & Installations:
1. Consider the thermal insulation level of the subfloor and caculate the free floor area (FFA), then select the correct output rating and sized cable/s.
2. Ensure the subfloor soild, level and free from debris & dust. (A wooden subfloor should be reinforced with tile backer boards to be suitable for tiling.)
3. Prime the subfloor with a primer compatible with the levelling compound or tile adhesive and leave primed primer dry.
4. Test your cable/s with a multimeter or ohm meter. (Live to netural = ohms value as in above table, live to = infinity).
5. Lay out the cable/s, avoid the area with permanent fittings (if have), and test the cable/s' resistance.
6. Connect two cold tails, install floor sensor (supplied with thermostat), install thermostat, and test the cable/s' resistance.
7. Cover the cable/s with thinset, tile adhesive, latex screed (5-6mm) for tile, stone, porcelain, or levelling compound (8-15mm) for carpet, vinyl, laminate/solid wood, ensure heating elements, cable joint and sensor probe wire are all encapsulated within adhesive or compound, test the cable/s' resistance.
8. Install floor covering, test the cable/s' resistance, run your heating system after all adhesives or compounds are dry.
Cautions:
1. If you are unsure our cables are suitable for your floor, please consult your floor covering manufacturer or call FEELWARM's helpline.
2. Do not cut, shorten, strain, cross the heating cables or apply the cables with staples in any circumstance. Aviod nailing through the cables and aviod installation under permanent fixtures and fittings such as refrigerator, cabinet, tub, vanity unit, toilet, sink etc.
3. FEELWARM cables are designed for primary heating provided the subfloor is properly insulated. If our cables are being installed onto the subfloor with a low thermal insulation level or without thermal insulation e.g. concrete slab, it is highly recommended that a layer of FEELWARM Insulation Boards (or Tile Backer Boards) are used prior to the installation of the heating cable in order to provide additional insulation.
4. FEELWARM cables must always be controlled by suitable thermostat with floor temperature limitation. FEELWARM thermostats are rated to 16Amps, if the total load from a combination of heating cables exceeds this, a suitably rated contactor should be used. The circuit must be protected by a RCD (30mA and upto 4.8KW) and suitably rated fuse spur or circuit breaker. Multiple cables should be wired in parallel, not in series, and a connection box will be required. All works must comply with current IEE wiring regulations and the installation must comply with Part P of the Building Regulations. All electrical works must be carried out by a certified electrician.
