4.5 Installing the Temperature Sensor
Hot glue gun, hammer, wood chisel or concrete chisel
- To minimize floor height, chisel a 10 mm x 10 mm x 250 mm (3/8” x 3/8” x 10”)
channel in the subfloor to receive the floor sensor. The junction has an
insulation sheath and a slightly larger diameter than the heating cable.
The sensor must be embedded in cement or an equivalent binder (cement
glue, ceramic glue, self-levelling cement).
- Glue the sensor to the subfloor (fig. 4.5). The sensor must be solidly fastened
to the subfloor to ensure it stays in place when the cement or an equivalent
binder (cement glue, ceramic glue, self-levelling cement) is applied.
