Follow these steps to ensure a successful Foil
Heating Mat installation.
Step 1: PLAN LAYOUT
Make a sketch layout or a floor plan of the room;
include all permanent furnishings such as toilets,
bathtubs, appliances, cabinetry, etc. The first step is
to calculate the coverage of heating mat that you
require. Although 100% coverage is achievable we
would recommend allowing a border of between 2 and 4cm around the edge of the room.
