Aga Ranges Fired Earth Underfloor Heating - Manual (Page 4)

Bathroom Mat
160 watts/m 2
Although any of our underfloor heating
products are suitable for use in bathrooms
we have developed a system which is
specifically designed for wet bathrooms.
This system is easy to install, extremely
robust and available in 300mm widths
giving a better floor coverage around
bathroom furniture. It is ultra thin, adding
only 5mm to the depth of the floor and is
rated at a powerful 160 watts/m 2 . This
system has been designed with a
completely unique external earth braid and
grid system to comply with all forthcoming
European and International guidelines and
directives. This is the safest underfloor
heating system in the world.
• Ideal for bathrooms as they quickly dry
wet floors.
• Fitted with unique external earth braid
for additional safety even in shower areas.
• 300mm wide for better coverage and
easier installation.
• Fabric backing for better installation.

Recommendations and Technical
What else do I need to install an
underfloor heating system?
All you need is the correct heating system,
a control (timer/thermostat), an RCD and
the adhesives/leveller to stick the system
onto the sub-floor.
What size heating system do I need?
It is important to make sure that you have
the correct size heating system. Underfloor
heating is not laid under permanent
furniture (kitchen cabinets and sanitary
ware), just in the free floor space. For
example, the bathroom in the diagram on
the left is 4.5m 2 of floor area, but the actual
amount of underfloor heating required is
only 1.5m 2 .
What controls do I need?
We recommend installing a
timer/thermostat; this will allow you total
control of your heating whilst ensuring
maximum efficiency.
Our thermostats are
covered by a one year
guarantee.
What electrical/subfloor preparations
do I need to make?
We recommend a qualified electrician carry
out all electrical work. The electrician will
need to provide the correct size spur and
deep single back boxes for the control and
Residual Current Device (RCD). An RCD is a
safety device (circuit breaker) which is
essential for the validation of the guarantee
and to comply with IEE guidelines. Prepare
the sub-floor ready for the final floor finish.
An RCD is only required if you do not
already have one on the mains. The wiring
to the thermostat should be channelled into
the wall and protected by plastic trunking
or conduit.
