Before installing, draw an installation plan showing the placement of the
mats, floor sensor, and junction box
or boxes.
The Warmup
®
underlaminate foil heating mats should cover at least 80% of
the floor area of your room to be used as a primary heat source*. Warmup’s
foil heating mats are available in several convenient sizes. Choose the
combination of heating mats that best enables you to cover the
recommended 80% of your room. Plan to use the larger foil heating mats as
much as possible and to use smaller mats only as gap fillers.
Note: The mats are supplied with 3 metres of electrical cold leads.If
this is not enough, ask your electrician to extend the electrical
supply cables.
*Depending on insulation, air-flow & overall heat-loss within the room, additional heating may be required.

Roll out heating mats on top of the insulating material. It is recommended to leave a gap of about
50mm from the wall to the heating mats, and a gap of about 10mm between each mat. Ensure that
each heating mat is completely flat. Make sure that the cold leads of the mats are on the side of the
mat that is closest to the location of the electrical junction box (See step 3 – Making the Electrical
Connection).
