Key facts

  • Twin-core cable for tile and stone floors
  • 10W/m: close spacing, 5 to 160m
  • 20W/m: wider spacing, 10 to 125m, can also go in screed
  • 10W/m at 65mm or 20W/m at 130mm gives 150W/m²
  • The heating cable can't be cut

How to fit it

  1. Bed the uncoupling membrane in flexible tile adhesive
  2. Spacing = free floor area ÷ cable length
  3. 10W/m under 50mm spacing means the cable is too long
  4. Press the cable between the studs
  5. Keep both joints bedded in adhesive, then tile
