Features & Options
Warmup DCM-PRO Cables
Warmup DCM-Pro Cables are easy to install with
Warmup Uncoupling Membrane is a healthy and efficient
way to get warm, comfortable floors. Each cable kit includes: 1
heating cable, and installation instructions. All other accessories are available separately.
Key Features:
- Versatile: Install under ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone
tiles; or laminate and floating engineered wood floors - Consistent temperature all day long
- Quiet, allergy-friendly heating
buying options:
120 and 240 Volt Kits
WARMUP UNCOUPLING MEMBRANE
Warmup Uncoupling Membranes are innovative uncoupling
membranes designed to result in significant protection for tiled
flooring by creating a new layer between the subfloor and the
floor finish. The Membrane has been successfully tested to ANSI
118.12 standards and performed well on the Robinson test
(ASTM C-627). It is the highest-rated membrane for floor heating
systems.
Key Features:
- Flexible heating zones
- Cost and time-saving installation
- No tools required to fit the cable
- Highest heating outputs
- Uncoupling crack isolation
- Supports load distribution
buying options:
Fleece Backed in 150sf Roll and 2’ 3” x 3’ 3” Sheet
Peel and Stick Available in 150sf Roll and 3’ 3” x 2’ 7” Sheet
WARMUP INSULATION BOARD
Warmup Insulation Boards are the first insulation boards designed for use with electrical floor heating systems. These boards are used to ensure that the heat does not pass through to the sub-floor from the heat cabins, resulting in maximum efficiency.
Key Features:
- Lightweight
- No dust to clean up/breath in during installation
- 50% more even heating and 30% faster heat up times than standard boards
- Built-in Decoupling Layer
- Helps Reduce Energy Usage
buying options:
2′ x 4 Boards
Considerations
Surface Art Heat Floor Warming Cable Kits are available for any square footage.
- For areas larger than 70 square feet (6.50 m2), the 240 Volt Cable is recommended.
- Kit combinations that exceed 15 Amps may require a relay kit.
- Can be installed under laminate or engineered floating wood floors. Not approved for nail-down installations.
- WarmUp Uncoupling Membrane sold separately.
Not sure the square footage you’re heating? Calculate your heating needs below!
Calculate Your Needs
STEP 1: Calculate the Total Area to be Heated
- Create a floor plan diagram, similar to the one shown at right.
- Break down the walkable area to be heated into smaller portions (squares, rectangles), if needed.
- Find each floor section’s square area by multiplying the length and width of each walkable floor section. Add each of these together for the installation’s total walkable square area. It is shown as dark red.
Tips:
- Surface Art Heat Floor Warming Cable Kits are available for any square footage.
- For triangular sections, multiply its sides and divide by 2.
- Order WarmUp Uncoupling Membrane based off full square footage of the room, not just the square footage to be heated. WarmUp is a backer-board replacement and will need to be installed on the entirety of the floor.
STEP 2: Determine Heating needs and Cable Spacing Required
2-3 Peg Spacing
Primarily used in areas requiring a rapid heat-up time. The higher heater power will not necessarily lead to more heat output, just a faster heat-up.
3 Peg Spacing
This is the standard (UL-Approved minimum) spacing and works best for most projects. It has enough excess power to heat-up quickly, but uses less wire and is more economical.
3-4 Peg Spacing
3-4 peg spacings are primarily used in areas with lower heat-loss, such as well-insulated homes (Passive Houses). With these lower outputs, it is important to consider the flooring choice so as to reduce the chance of striping (often if the flooring is too thin)
4 Peg Spacing
4 peg spacings is primarily used in areas with lower heat-loss, such as well-insulated homes (Passive Houses). With these lower outputs, it is important to consider the flooring choice so as to reduce the chance of striping (often if the flooring is too thin)
STEP 3: Choose the Voltage and Correct Cable Kit
For areas larger than 70 square feet (6.50 m2), the 240 Volt Cable is recommended. Each cable kit includes heating cable, 1 thermostat sensor, and installation instructions.
