Tape, hot glue gun, stapler
Remove the product from the box and verify the electrical and insu-
lation resistance of the heating cable.
Therma Cable strappings’ installation:
- The strappings are fixed on the floor with staples (T50) (when the floor is made
of plywood or wood) or with a hot glue gun.
- The strappings must follow the outline draw on the room layout (section 4.1)
- If the lacing distance between two strappings is over 0,625 m (2 ft), it is
necessary to place an intermediate strapping to maintain the cable in position
during the pouring of self-leveller, this strapping is installed at the end, after the
lacing of the cable.
- The cable can be installed under the ceramic tile of a shower or other wet
surfaces, the strappings and the heating cable must be glued
under the
wateproofing membrane
and not stapled, staples could damage the
waterproofing membrane.
Installation of Therma Cable
- Set the cable near the connection box and regularly lace the heating wire
respecting the distance between the sections; 76 mm (3”).
- Do not bend the cable at 90° when setting it in the strapping hooks; leave a
20 mm (3/4“) radius. This radius comes naturally; the cable must not be
forced to have a tight bend.
