A gentle electric radiant heat system designed specifically a gentle electric radiant heat system designed specifically for dry installation under floating wood and laminate floors. Warmup s dcm pro system heating mat and foil electric floor heating systems use ul approved ultra thin heating elements to quickly yet gently heat the floor surface. This is first laid on a layer of screed made of sand and cement or suspended timber floorboards on joists to ensure the surface is completely flat. And you can staple mats between joists to heat the floor above.

However don t install electric heat under a subfloor unless the system is specifically intended for that method. It provides zero emf and also comes with a digital floor sensing thermostat and a single cold lead for added convenience. Yeah i don t think that radiant heat electric radiant heat is going to work well by going under the subfloor. Electric underfloor heating is usually placed on top of a layer of floor insulation to ensure the heat travels upwards rather than down.

In addition to operating on renewable energy electric floor heating systems operate silently and feature no moving parts so they re maintenance free. Radiant floor heating is less effective under carpeting hardwood or vinyl since heat can be trapped between the insulating surface layer and the subfloor. Warmup electric radiant floor heating system range warmup underfloor heating offers heat up time in minutes rather than hours avoiding overheating and wasting energy. No need to demo re install or disturb the original floor.

Brings radiant floor heating to any existing floor with adequate access to exposed floor joists. Then insulate the underside of the mat with r 13 or thicker fiberglass batts.

A low profile line voltage system it features gradual warmth from low wattage resistance heating of ultra thin flexible radiant heat film. Operating at 120 volts this system is enough to heat a moderately sized room. Electric systems utilize heat resistance cable embedded beneath the floor while hydronic systems heat specially treated water that is pumped through a closed loop of pex tubing under the floor. The set comes with enough heating wire to let you create up to 50 sqft of under tile electric heating.
