Step-by-Step Installation Guide

(For reference only – always follow the full installation manual.)

1. Measure Your Free Floor Space
   • Exclude any fixed units or furniture that sit flat on the floor.
   • Divide the space into rectangles, calculate the area, and cover approximately 90% with the heating mat.
2. Prepare the Subfloor
   • Lay XPS insulation boards onto the subfloor and secure the joints with tape.
3. Position the Heating Mat
   • Start laying the mat as close to the thermostat location as possible.
   • At the end of each run, cut the mat (but not the cable), rotate it 90° or 180°, and continue laying.
   • Ensure all loops are spaced evenly and secure the mat to the subfloor using the supplied tape.
4. Electrical Installation (to be carried out by a qualified electrician)
   • Install an RCD fused spur to power the thermostat and heating system.
   • Position the temperature probe equidistant between two cable loops and attach it to the floor.
   • Connect the power supply cable from the end of the heating mat to the thermostat.
5. Testing & Final Checks
   • Run the heating system for no more than 10 minutes to confirm functionality.
