The installation must be performed in accordance with all
National and Local Building & Electrical Codes and any
local amendments. Turn off the electrical supply to avoid
risk of electric shock.
2. SUBFLOOR PREPARATION
1. ELECTRICAL ROUGH-IN
1. Install a suitable power supply to a single gang box at the
desired location for thermostat. (110V for areas up to 110 sq ft
or 220V power for larger heated areas)
2. Run a conduit from the electrical box down to subfloor & leave
a pull wire inside conduit. (some areas require a separate
conduit for thermostat sensor wire-check local codes)
1. Ensure that suitable backer board is fastened down as per
manufacturers specifications.
2. Ensure that the subfloor does not have flex or movement.
3. Apply reinforcing joint tape at seams. (or treat seams per
manufacturer’s specifications)
4. Ensure subfloor is dust free.
installer’s tips
• Prime backer board with self-leveling primer. (if that is the
method to be used for covering heating cables)
• Use silicone caulking to seal any gaps around perimeter of the
room. This will prevent self leveling concrete from escaping.
2” masking tape also works well. Use masking tape to build
dams at floor vents, doorways, or any other areas of loss.
• Document all phases of installation with pictures.
