- Avoid walking on the Thermat system. If you must, wear soft rubber soled shoes;

- Always start unrolling Thermat at least 50 mm (2”) from the walls;

- To work around stationary elements, detach a section of heating cable from the

mat and use it to cover a tight space or work around an object;

- It is important not to subject the heating cable to any mechanical strain

(stretching, radius bending under 20 mm [3/4”], scoring).

4.4.2 Mat Rippling

- Carefully flatten the mat against the subfloor to ensure it and the heating cable

can be completely embedded in the cement or other binder to be applied in

the next step;

- If the mat ripples, score the center of the rippled section and flatten the edges

(fig. 4.4.2).

Never cut or score the heating cable.
