conduit has to go from the thermostat and minimum of 25cm away from the wall towards the
middle of the floor.
The sensor cable should run back up to the thermostat position, the 2 core cable
should be connected to the thermostat in the correct terminals.
Important
The sensor conduit must be centered in the cable loop (between two heating wires).
Step 6: MEASURE THE RESISTANCE (THE FIRST TIME)
Once the insulation has been installed, remove your Foil Heating Mat from the packaging box,
carry out a resistance test. Use a digital ohm meter to measure the resistance of the Foil Heating
Mat and compare it to Table. Record the measured resistance on the warranty card. Documenting
the resistance at each stage of installation is required for warranty purposes. Also, measure the
resistance between the blue, brown and yellow green ground wire. Both should read infinity.
Step 7: BEGIN LAYING THE Foil Heating Mat
Start by placing the mat such that the connection point and the temperature sensor are in intended
positions and bring the power cable to the thermostat or connection box.
