How is underfloor heating installed?
- Tape measure
- Scissors or blade to cut the mesh (never the heating cable)
- Multimeter to verify continuity
- Serrated spatula
- Spirit level
- Soil preparation: Make sure the surface is clean, dry, level, and free of dust or grease. This will ensure good contact between the floor and the heating system.
- Install the thermal insulation (optional): If required, place a layer of thermal insulation to improve energy efficiency and prevent heat loss downwards.
- Unfold the mesh or heating cable: Lay out the heating mesh or wires according to the recommended installation design, making sure to evenly cover the entire area. If you use netting, cut it carefully to fit the space, but never cut the heating cord.
- Fix the system to the ground: Use the supplied tape or adhesive to secure the system to the floor, making sure it doesn’t move during the installation of the final floor.
- Connect the thermostat: Bring the heating wires to the thermostat connection point. A qualified electrician will need to make this connection to ensure the safety and proper functioning of the system.
- Check the system: Use a multimeter to check the system’s endurance and make sure everything is working properly before continuing.
- Apply the self-leveling or adhesive coat: Cover the system with a layer of self-leveling or adhesive to protect it and create an even base for the final floor.
- Install the final floor: Lay the finishing material (tiles, wood, vinyl, etc.) following the specific instructions for the chosen type of floor.
- Connect and test: Once the final floor is installed and drying is complete, connect the system to the thermostat and perform a final test to make sure it is working properly.
