Mark the cable position on the floor.
Calculate in square feet the size of the area to
be heated. Then, using the sizing guide on the
opposite page, refer to the heating cable spacing
and perimeter distances to correctly fit your
heating cable into the space available.
Using a fiber tipped pen, mark a start point as close
as possible to the power supply, but no further
than 8 feet from it using the sizing guide on the
opposite page.
Mark all the outer corners of the heated area
observing the perimeter distances referred to in
the sizing guide and join the corners up to form a
marked out perimeter.
Mark up the spacing intervals for the heating cable
following the sizing guide.
The spacing between cables must be a minimum
of 2” apart, but not further than 4” apart. At no
time, should the heating cables be less than 2”
from the wall.
Note: The entire system must be kept on the
same level; do not lay the cables on stairways
or up walls.
