It is advisable to fix it with PVA adhesive.

6mm and 10mm sheets are available.

Whilst it is not necessary it is highly advisable to prevent downward wastage of heat and thereby increase the efficiency of the system.

Yes, but the controller must be fitted outside the bathroom and the temperature controlled with a floor sensor within the bathroom.

Proprietary adhesive with additional flexible additives or enhancers.

Approximately 4-5 metres. These can be cut or extended on site. To extend any normal domestic twin earthed cable can be used. 1.5mm sq will be sufficient as very little current is being carried.

Providing the system has been laid correctly and tested in accordance with instructions, it is highly unlikely that a fault will develop. However, should a fault arise it can be locally detected with special test equipment and repaired on site.

It must never be closer than 50mm and the cable must never cross.

Floor tiles will become noticeably warmer after approximately 30 minutes and reach optimum temperature within 1 - 1½ hours.

The switching of a thermostat is 3500w (16 amps). However, an area can be split using more than one stat or the one stat can be protected via a contactor.

No, to do so could cause overheating and hot spots.

ECOMAT™ is available in standard lengths from 2.0m to 8.0m in 0.5m increments. These can be shortened by cutting along the marked cutting lines in accordance with instructions.

Although the system can be controlled manually by switching on and off, the running costs will be higher as it will almost certainly be running when not required. We recommend that a thermostat be fitted – normally programmable – as this will make the system work efficiently and with the greatest degree of comfort.

With the help of the simple instructions included (or downloaded here) ECOMAT™ can be installed by a DIY enthusiast without problem. However, in accordance with current electrical regulations, a qualified electrician must make all electrical connections and check the system on completion.

The cold tails go back to the power supply point - this will normally be a thermostat. They cannot be connected together in series.

Proprietary adhesive with additional flexible additives or enhancers.

Approximately 4-5 metres. These can be cut or extended on site. To extend any normal domestic twin earthed cable can be used. 1.5mm sq will be sufficient as very little current is being carried.

In normal circumstances, floor tiles will become slightly warm after approximately 30 minutes and reach optimum operating temperature within 1 - 1½ hours.

Tiling, limestone, marble, stone, carpet, etc. If installed beneath carpet, the cables should be covered with a layer of self levelling compound to guard against possible damage and to give a firm base on which to walk. Underlay suitable for electric underfloor heating must also be used.

Approximately 27 - 30°c

The matting can be cut to fit around fixed objects as described in the Fitting Instructions. The cables must never be cut as this will alter the resistance. However the non-heating cold tails can be cut or extended to the required length.

If fitted in Zone 1, i.e. over a bath or in a wet room low volt models must be specified.

They are all semi gloss white paint.

Yes. The heat from the demista™ Pad permeates the door.

As glass is a good conductor of heat demista™ is suitable for use with any normal thickness of mirror.

This is not advisable as when turned down there would be insufficient power for demista™ to be fully effective.

Yes, within the limitations of the available power. They should then be fitted in parallel.

Only with low volt models.

Yes but the backing should be earthed as should all metal parts surrounding the mirror.

No. This will damage the insulation rendering it dangerous.

This depends on what area is required to be clear. The area of the mirror that will remain steam free is the area of the demista™ Pad plus approximately 20%-30% area around it.

The monitor can be fitted at a convenient low level whilst the camera remains at the normal “peep hole” height. See our gallery for pictures.

Yes. The innovative design allows full usage during night time hours.

Yes, providing it has a minimum thickness of 25mm.
