7.1 Installation Tips
- For multilayer wood flooring (engineered floor) or linoleum, it is recommended
that you consult the manufacturer to verify whether these floor coverings are
compatible with a floor heating system;
- Though unlikely, the floor temperature sensor may need to be replaced. Ouellet
Canada Inc. recommends installing a flexible plastic tube from the sensor to the
thermostat on the wall;
- Fasten the cold lead and floor sensor to a concrete subfloor with adhesive (hot
glue, tape).
7.2 Floor Covering Tips
- It is strongly recommended to coat the subfloor with a sealer before spreading
the self-levelling cement (which is very liquid). This is to prevent any leaks
under the floor;
- The use of a latex primer on a concrete subfloor is recommended to ensure the
self-levelling cement adheres better to the concrete;
- With multilayer wood flooring (engineered floor), applying a minimum 5 mm
(3/16”) layer of self-levelling cement on the heating cable is recommended. To
completely embed the cable in the cement or cement glue;
- It is important to respect the drying times recommended by the manufacturer
to prevent residual moisture from affecting the adherence of floor coverings
such as vinyl, linoleum, or wood.
