unit so that the end user has all the information needed for the Wall Panel Heating
system.
ALWAYS
ensure that all electrical work, testing and diagrams of the installation
have been signed off by a certified electrician .
ALWAYS
test the heating panel before, during and after the final installation. This is
very important during the tiling stage and after any fixings have been made to the
wall.
ALWAYS
take care during installation not to damage the heating wire.
ALWAYS
installed the heating panel at least 50mm from conductive parts of the
building.
ALWAYS
ensure that a heat loss calculation have been carried out and all heating
requirements have been met if the system is to be used as a primary source of heat.
ALWAYS
advise other trades of the location of the heating panels before the
commence any work to avoid damage to the heating panel. They should be made
aware of all the heated and unheated zones. Placing temporary warning labels
within the heated areas will reduce the risk of damage.
ALWAYS

of the heating panel sitting above other electrical circuits located behind the wall.
ALWAYS
fix the heating panels to cementitous non flammable materials or to a
board fit for purpose such as a Tile backer board with a euroclass “E” rating.
