Clean the subfloor thoroughly. Lay out a
moisture barrier if one is not already
present.
The Devicell™ dry plates should be laid out
so as to cover the entire floor. Ensure the
plates are laid in the same direction, and
lay them closely together with the grooves
aligned to each other.
The plates are easily adapted to any room
size, e.g. by use of a jig saw with an
aluminium blade. Sharp edges should
be smoothed and rounded.
Use the enclosed locks to lock the plates
together.
The thermostat can be placed anywhere in
the room. Where the cable exits the wall,
use a jig saw to make room in the plate
for the cold tail cable connector and the
floor sensor. Smooth and round any sharp
edges, and pay particular attention to places
where the cable is resting on a cut edge.
Apply a piece of aluminium tape to the
sub floor and the edges of the plate where
the heating cable splice will be laid.
Install the cable and the flex pipe in the
wall. The connection of the cable and
the thermostat must be carried out by an
authorised electrician.
Cover the cold tail cable connector with
another layer of aluminium tape, and
mount the sensor casing on the floor by
either screws or glue and glue it in the end
of the flex pipe.
Now lay the cable out over the entire floor.
Do not lay the cable outside the plates.
Press the cable into the grooves. Do not
try to hammer or beat the cable into place,
it might cause damage to the cable.
When the entire cable has been laid out, a
hole is cut in the plate to make room for
the cable end. Saw the plate with e.g. a jig
saw with an aluminium blade. Smooth
and round any sharp edges. Subsequently,
place the cable end between two pieces of
aluminium tape with contact to the aluminium
plate.
When the cable has been laid out and
tested (see instructions for the Deviflex™ heating cable), lay out a step damping and
the wooden flooring.
