Portable Under Area Rug Floor Heating Panels (120V)
Installation Instructions
- Designed for easy user installation.

-
Lay it down. Secure the Speedheat heating panel to the carpet pad with double-sided adhesive tape, and then roll the area rug over the panel. Over a concrete sub-floor use an extra insulation pad.
-
Plug it in. Plug the GFCI safety plug into the closest 120V wall socket, press the top button on the plug, and a light will come on, indicating that your area rug heating panel is now energized.
-
It makes you warm. Feel a 10F to 15F temperature rise on top of the rug in minutes.

TileWarm™
Under Tile and Hard Surfaces Heating System (120V and 240V)
* A qualified electrician must perform all electrical connections.
Installation of the heating element may be performed by a suitably trained flooring contractor, the Speedheat appointed under floor heating installer in your area, or an experienced DIY person following the comprehensive instructions.
-
Preparation. Specifying the correct element models and floor configuration requires some practice, and Speedheat is happy to assist. Fax your floor plan to us and we'll work out the optimum solution.
-
Placement. Element strips are supplied with adhesive tape along two edges. Peel off the protective wax paper, and stick the heating element down to the floor in the pre-determined configuration. Navigating around permanent floor fixtures is easy, and you can be sure there will be no cold spots.
-
Protection. To protect the element during the tiling process, Speedheat ProtectaMesh is placed down over the heating element wires on the floor. Once the cold leads have been pulled up into a junction box in the wall, a Speedheat electronic continuity monitor is attached. An alarm sounds if there's any damage.
- In the unlikely event that damage occurs to the element after completion of tiling, Speedheat has sophisticated electronic detection equipment, allowing detection & repair of the heating system without lifting the entire floor.
-
Electrical connection. A qualified electrician must perform all electrical connections.
Dependant on the floor area to be heated, 120V or 240V elements may be specified. A qualified electrician will then provide an appropriate power supply cable to a junction box. -
Speedheat under tile heating elements may only be connected to a power supply via a GFCI protected thermostat or wall socket. Speedheat recommends a particular UL listed 120V/240V auto sensing, intelligent, programmable GFCI thermostat to ensure optimum performance of the system.
