1. Preparing the base
Before you start installing the product,
please ensure that the floor is:
• permanently inflexible
• dry
• flat and regular
• dust- and fat-free
• free from any sharp objects
Use a powerful vacuum cleaner to re-
move all dust from the floor.
2. Designing the layout
Draw a floor plan of the room and
determine the most logical location for
the control system and the position of
the floor heating elements. Consider the
placement of the wall outlet to get the
most convenient access and make sure
the necessary power supply is available
(See next chapter 3 for Calculation of
available power supply).
The output cord from the control system
will go into the right side of the heating
element, so you should start laying the
first heat element on the right side of
the floor and work towards the left side.
Remember to keep at least 70 mm of
free space between the skirting/wall and
the first heating element for the plug-in
connection between the floor heating
element and the control system. Use the
filler material to fill this space afterwards.
Sample calculations are provided below
to help you work out how many Devidry™
floor heating elements are required. All
Devidry™ floor heating elements are one
metre wide and the standard length var-
ies from one to five metres. Reduce the
length of the elements to the required
size as shown in the table.
