The complimentary Installation Plan provided by the

WarmlyYours team is very important. It shows the

recommended placement of your Heating Roll(s) for

safety and optimal efficiency. The plan will also serve

as the reference for any future inspections or floor work

that needs to be performed.

The Heating Element of the WarmlyYours product is

sewn in a serpentine pattern onto lengths of Fiberglass

Mesh forming a roll. It is quick and simple to cover large

areas.

Your plan shows you where any modification is

necessary. These are all easily done by cutting through

the Fiberglass Mesh material (NOT the Heating

Element), see Photo A , so that the roll is in two or more,

moveable -but connected- pieces which are called

“Panels”, see Photo B. These panels can be angled,

turned or completely flipped over in order to cover the

space.

To cover very small or odd shaped areas, the Heating

Element is used in “Free Form”. A section of the

Fiberglass Mesh is removed in order to release an

appropriate length of Heating Element to fill the space.

This “free” wire is placed in areas not reached by the

main Heating Elements of the panels. It is also used to

make “step turns” possible. Always maintain 3” spacing

in all free form and step turns.

To release the required amount of Heating Element for

a free form area, first make the two straight cuts and

then carefully remove it.

Cut & Turn

By cutting only the Mesh (see Photo A), you can move

the remaining section of the Heating Roll in a new

direction. By doing this, you are creating what are now

referred to as “panels.” (see Photo B). This is the first

step in any turn or alteration of the Heating Roll(s). A

turn is indicated on the Installation Plan by an arc with

an arrowhead. By examining the relationship between

two panels, you will determine the type of turn needed.

Free Form

Free form spaces are filled with loose lengths of Heating

Element. A wavy line with an arrow will appear on the

Installation Plan to indicate the area that needs to be

filled. This symbol is accompanied by a unit of measure

in a circle that will indicate the amount of Fiberglass

Mesh to be removed. (See Page 6, on Installation

Plan.) Once the tape is trimmed, the Heating Element

separated and the Fiberglass Mesh removed, position

the Heating Element by hand and secure it to the floor

with Hot Glue or Tape. Try to maintain the 3 inch spacing

similar to the spacing on the Heating Roll(s).

Installation Recommendations

The space heating cable shall not extend beyond the

room or area in which it originates.
The space heating cable is not installed in closets,

over walls or partitions that extend to the ceiling, or

over cabinets whose clearance from the ceiling is less

than the minimum horizontal dimension of the nearest

cabinet edge that is open to the room or area.
Isolated single runs of cable may pass over partitions

where they are embedded.
The cable is not to be installed in walls.
The minimum distance between adjacent runs shall be 2 in.
Inspect and remove damaged or defective cables

before they are covered or concealed.

Mark the appropriate circuit breaker reference label

indicating which branch circuit supplies the circuits to

those electric space heating cables.
Minimum installation temperature for the wire is 5ºF

(-15ºC). See Adhesive instructions for recommended

minimum installation temperature.
