  • 'Smart' thermostats which offer zoned, programmable heating control, a requirement of the Building Regulations Approved Document L.
  • A complete range of installation accessories and components including: Floor primers, adhesives and fixing accessories.

Consult technical literature for design (power output, cable length etc.) requirements depending on whether installation on new construction or renovation. Packs as well as individual components are available, consult manufacturer for details and insert requirements under 'Product reference'.

Self-regulating heating:

The cable automatically adjusts its power output long its entire length to compensate for temperature changes. This is achieved within the conductive core which is extruded over the two parallel conductors, as the temperature drops, the core contracts microscopically and the number of electrical paths through the core increases resulting in more heat being produced. Conversely the opposite occurs when the core expands and less heat is produced when the ambient temperature rises.

- Benefits:

  • Avoids overheating. The cable can be closely spaced.
  • Maintenance free.
  • The cable can be cut to length and installed directly on to the existing floor.
  • Certified for use on wooden floors.
  • Energy efficient by adjusting the room temperature it can optimize energy consumption.

Applications:

  • CeraPro: Bathrooms, kitchens, living areas and conservatories. Particularly useful for irregularly shaped floor areas.
  • T2Blue: Bathrooms, stairs, living areas and conservatories.
  • T2Red and T2Red with T2Reflecta: Living rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, dining rooms, bedroom rooms and conservatories.
  • RAYCHEM Custom Mats: Custom built to fit the exact dimensions of the floor areas.
  • Top floor and subfloor: Varies depending on system used, consult literature for details.
