which comes with the product and must be glued into the switchboard: this label also informs readers that the
making of openings is prohibited, as is covering the floor with furnishings or fittings without leaving at least a 4
cm gap between the floor and the bottom surface.
Regulation:
Thermostats with a floor probe installed in the heating part of the floor, with at least 30 cm within the heated area,
must be used for the thermal regulation of rooms heated using heating circuits/mats.
Place the floor probe of the thermostat as close to the surface of the floor as possible. The probe is placed into a
conduit whose end blocked to prevent ingress of building materials.
In the case of direct-heating applications, the conduit is placed between the loops of the heating cable, in the centre
of a loop. The conduit mustn’t touch or cross the heating cable!
The radius of the bend of the conduit between the wall and the floor must be executed in such a way that the probe
can be exchanged if needed! The recommended minimum bend radius is 6 cm.
The thermostat must be set to the mode: Room + floor temperature limit or Floor.
The maximum allowed floor temperature setting (if the datasheet for the covering used doesn’t state a lower value):
27°C - rooms which are used for longer periods
35°C - rooms used for shorter periods, with floor tiling
