ELEKTRA
Heating Cables
Stairs
Heating cables are laid in steps, placed in dedicated
previously chiseled grooves, and then covered
with concrete. The grooves are optimally made
at the stage of stairs construction. This method
of installation would greatly facilitate later
surface finishing works and would not cause
surface elevation.
If such elevation is acceptable (e.g. in any al
-
ready existing stairs), then the cables will be
placed directly on the steps and fixed to their
surface with the ELEKTRA TME installation tape
or installation mesh.
As substeps are not heated, outermost segments
of the cable need to be positioned as close to
the step’s edge as possible.
