Common Support Questions

Should I be concerned about electric floor heating melting the toilet connection's wax ring?

To prevent any melting, ensure that the heating wire is at least 4” from the toilet wax ring.

Can I put furniture on top of underfloor heating?

Yes, but any furniture that may trap heat, such as pieces with an enclosed bottom, should be avoided. Furniture on legs with a clearance of at least 3" is permissible.

What type of floor preparation is required for Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) and radiant heating?

The subfloor will need to be prepared as per the instructions of the self-leveling cement (SLC) used. Please note that most self-leveling products require the use of a primer as specified by the SLC company.

How many square feet of floor heating can be connected to one thermostat?

One thermostat can control multiple heating mats/cables as long as all the heating elements are using less than 15 amps:

TempZone™ will cover aprx. 120 sq. ft. for 120V systems and 240 sq. ft. for 240V systems on one thermostat.

Environ™ will cover aprx. 150 sq. ft. for 120V systems and 300 sq. ft. for 240V systems on one thermostat.

Slab Heat will cover aprx. 90 sq. ft. for 120V systems and 180 sq. ft. for 240V systems on one thermostat.

Would the TempZone installation process be different if Luxury Vinyl Tile was installed in a bathroom?

No. A bathroom floor would be installed in the same way. Our TempZone floor heating systems are wet-location listed and ideal for bathroom floors.

Is installing a floor heating system for LVT the same as for ceramic or porcelain tile?

Yes, Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) is typically installed over the embedded heating element using self-leveling cement (SLC). Many people choose to use SLC when installing tile over floor heating.

We do not suggest using thinset to encase the heating wires with LVT, as it is very difficult to get thinset completely flat.

What thickness is required for self-leveling cement when installing floor heating for Luxury Vinyl Tile?

We suggest the heating product be embedded in a minimum of 3/8" of self-leveling cement (SLC). Always check with the manufacturer for specific recommendations.

Can you use glue-down Luxury Vinyl Tile products with this floor heating system?

Yes, if the flooring manufacturer recommends this installation method. In most cases, the heating element will still need to be embedded in self-leveling cement before the flooring is installed.

 1 person found this helpful.  Did you find this helpful? Yes No
Is there a way to heat vinyl flooring without embedding the heating system, such as a floating floor heating system?

There are heating systems designed for floating floors, such as our Environ system. However, the flooring must be rigid enough so it does not mold itself to the heating cables over time.

Check the flooring manufacturer's floor heating recommendations. In most cases, the heating system will need to be embedded beneath the flooring. Check for all "flatness" requirements for the flooring you choose. The flattest floors utilize self-leveling cement when installed correctly.

Can I use self-leveling cement over Prodeso membrane?

Self-Leveling (SLC) Cement is not recommended for use over Prodeso. Contact WarmlyYours if self-leveling underlayment is required.

How do I install tiles over the Prodeso membrane?

Install membrane over entire floor first, then heating cable, then do the tiles 1 or 2 at a time. Never cover the Prodeso entirely with thin-set first. Only apply as much thin-set as needed to lay a couple of tiles at a time.

 1 person found this helpful.  Did you find this helpful? Yes No
Is Prodeso membrane waterproof?

Waterproofing is recommended under and around tubs/showers. It’s also recommended wherever the tile could possibly be exposed to considerable amounts of water. Prodeso is naturally waterproof, but the corners and seams need to be treated with waterproofing tape and thin-set. (Use Pro WP Waterproofing Band 5“ - Soft polyethylene tape – to seal seams.)

Is installing reflective insulation effective for making an electric radiant floor heating or snow-melting system more efficient?

Reflective insulation is not effective with conductive heating, which is how embedded floor heating and snow-melting systems transfer heat. To be effective, the reflective insulation surface needs to face an air space (air gap), which allows the reflected heat to be redirected.

An effective solution considers the insulating material's R-Value. This is the rating of a material's insulating properties. The "R" stands for "resistance" and refers to the material's resistance to heat flow, or temperature conduction.

Are small mosaic tiles a good choice for installation over prodeso membrane?

Not a good choice for mosaic tile work, Prodeso requires 2“ x 2“ or larger tiles.

 Did you find this helpful? Yes No
Do I need expansion joints when using Prodeso installation membrane?

Prodeso installation membrane does not eliminate the need for expansion joints (adhere to local codes).

 Did you find this helpful? Yes No
How do I flatten the Prodeso membrane when it arrives in a roll?

Unroll the membrane the day before installation to flatten it and avoid any potential ‘memory’ due to environmental conditions.

 Did you find this helpful? Yes No
Is there anything important to note when laying Prodeso installation membranes next to each other?

When laying Prodeso installation membranes adjacent to each other, align the square relief pegs for the later heating element cable runs.

 Did you find this helpful? Yes No
What is the spacing/width of the rounded square reliefs?

1.25"

 Did you find this helpful? Yes No
What spacing is used for the wire with Prodeso Cable Installation Membrane?

The wire spacing in the Prodeso Cable Installation Membrane is 3.75“, or every 3rd peg.
