4 Installation 

        Important: 

Tools and materials required 

You will require the following items to install and test the floor heating system: 

·

Scissors 

·

Utility knife 

·

Wire strippers 

·

Tape measure 

·

Screwdriver 

·

Multimeter 

·

Aluminum tape 

·

Aluminum foil glass fiber tape 

 

You  will  also  need  the  appropriate  tools  and 

materials to install your particular floor.   

Follow  these  steps  to  ensure  a  successful  Foil 

Heating Mat installation. 

Step 1: PLAN LAYOUT 

Make  a  sketch  layout  or  a  floor  plan  of  the  room; 

include  all  permanent  furnishings  such  as  toilets, 

bathtubs,  appliances,  cabinetry,  etc.  The  first  step  is 

to  calculate  the  coverage  of  heating  mat  that  you 

require.  Although  100%  coverage  is  achievable  we 

would  recommend  allowing  a  border  of  between  2  and  4cm  around  the  edge  of  the  room.
