Puts heat reflective material

to enhance your space insulation is placed on the floor of the thermally reflective material.

Accommodation insulating material

fix a heat reflective material with a stapler or a metallized tape.

Mount

insulation In any case, the strip heat-reflecting material between them must also seal the tape.

Fixing insulation material between them

Here is the floor surface is covered with heat-reflecting material, held together with tape.

Laying electric underfloor heating

spreads shrink film according to the developed scheme of installation.Please note that the copper strip on the Thermal Film has to be at the bottom.

If necessary, cut the pieces of imaging film at the locations specified by the manufacturer.

Notice how to cut the shrink film

Placing the cut sheets according to the developed scheme ukaldki.

Connect insulation

Now fuser sheets, spread out on the floor to be connected to electrical cables and insulation to hold the locations of electrical contacts.

contacts Insulation heated electric underfloor heating is a special bituminous stickers that can be divided into two parts.

contacts Insulation

us isolate using bitumen label the place where you made the cut copper bus.

Isolating contacts - photos

Please note that the insulation must be superimposed on the entire length of the cut to close the copper surface and contacts leading to the elements of the dark material on a heated - electric floor.

closed by the insulation all the copper surface and contacts

Placing the contacts in the places where you want in the future to connect the wires of electric power.

Attach the wires of electric power

contact our disposal so that one side of the layer is inside the heating film.The second side of the contact in this case must be placed poverhpolosy copper foil.

Pin

Using pliers firmly stifle contact, ensuring its secure fit.

fix a contact

fix an electric heated floor layers together with duct tape, and attach the strip to a heat-reflective material.Eliminates the possibility of shifting layers.

fix a tape layers

We embed the stripped end of the electrical cable to the corresponding contact hole.

Attach the power cord

fix a wire in the opening of contact with a pair of pliers.

To temperature sensor did not break the surface of the final flooring - make him a slot in the thermally reflective layer material.

Make a cut in the insulation material

also to ensure the evenness of the laminate making cuts in a layer of heat-reflecting material under the contacts and wires.

cutouts in the insulating layer can be made by wire bundles.

Make cutouts for electric cable

wires placed in recesses must be secured with tape.

fix a wire tape

mounted on the wall at the selected location mounting the temperature control panel.

Set the thermostat panel

marked on the thermostat according to the wiring diagram fix the connecting wires.
