Instruction |
 |
Step 1
Draw an installation plan showing the placement of the mats, floor sensor, and junction box or boxes. Ensure the eRibbon mats are not laid in areas where fixed appliances may be positioned. Decide a suitable position for the thermostat.
Note
Ensure your eRibbon is correctly sized before you unpack the product. Call 08714 740818 with any questions. |
 |
Step 2
The floor should now be prepared ready for the eFoam insulation. All loose particles
should be removed and the floor thoroughly cleaned and treated with any proprietary
sealants as normally required. |
|
Step 3
Position and cut the efoam to fit your room size securing it with the spray adhesive and
using the utility tape to cover all eFoam joints. |
 |
Step 4
Position the double sided tape at regular intervals across the floor where the eRibbon
mats are going to be laid. |
 |
Step 5
Perform the following tests: Insulation resistance test, a heating cable resistance
test and a floor sensor resistance test.Record your findings in the test &
commission form enclosed in the box. |
 |
Step 6
Unfold the eRibbon with the fibreglass net facing up, lay the eRibbons onto the
eFoam insulation. Using the doublesided adhesive tape clearly fixed to the eFoam
ensures the eRibbon is installed with no raised folds. Each pair of cold tails should be
connected to a low level connection point.
Note Do not over lap the eRibbon mats |
|
Steps 7
Position the floor sensor thermostat probe directly below the electrical connection
point.
The floor sensing probe should be installed in-between two heating ribbons and
secured with the single sided adhesive tape (the floor sensor is used to measure the
maximum temperature beneath the floor). |
|
Steps 8
With the eRibbon laid and secure the finished floor surface can now be laid. When
using the Duralay Heatflow underlay install directly above the eRibbon
Note
After the finished floor covering has been laid perform the following tests:
- Insulation resistance test
- Heating cable resistance test
- Thermostat floor sensor resistance test
