Installation Step 6 – Cover the heating element with thermal screed
Installation Step 7 – Testing of the heater
(Prior to and during tiling/tiling procedures)
Fit the power supply cables into the channels
and secure with fixing tape. Remove all
debris and chippings from the floor.
Check the subfloor, as certain floor may
require priming prior to the levelling screed
being laid.
Mix and apply the screed as per the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Depending on your tiler’s requirements, they
may wish to apply a self levelling screed over
the heating elements for ease of tiling.
Allow 24-48 hours before commencing tiling.
Check the resistance on the heater, using a
multi meter and confirm the reading against
factory specifications (label on the cardboard
spool).
Test the heating element using an insulation
tester (min. Voltage 500V)
Connect the continuity tester (supplied with
each heating element). Follow the connection
instructions.
If the alarm sounds during the tiling
procedure, stop all work and call Warmtech
on 1300 138 126.
After the tiling and grouting procedure has
been completed, the checks 1 and 2 need to
be repeated.
