Warmup® now heats concrete with In-Slab, "Thermal Storage" electric floor heaters

Adaptable system heats cement floor and surfaces safely and affordably

Warmup, the global, award-winning manufacturer of electric radiant floor heating has just introduced an in-slab cable to their comprehensive product range to now heat concrete floors and countertops.  Decorative concrete flooring is a growing trend and Warmup's in-slab cable lets you enjoy them in comfort.  Concrete floor heating is ideal for refurbished basements, garages, 4-season room additions, new builds and even concrete countertops.   Now you can warm naturally-cold concrete efficiently and economically with Warmup's new electric in-slab heating.

With an output of up to 21W/sqft, it can be used as primary heating, giving you complete design freedom. Our extensive range of in-slab heating cables are simple to install and easy to embed in a thin profile material (less than 1/8") in various forms of concrete and allows for flexibility in terms of steps and odd shapes (e.g. custom showers).  The thermal storage is embedded in concrete (attached to a rebar or to our supplied ‘clips') or is layered in a small pour of sand to create a heatbank under a foundation, slab or basement.

Key Advantages of Warmup Electric In-slab Heating:

• Tough thick heating cable is protected by multiple layers of metal sheathing and insulation.
• Unlike hydronics, there is no worry of leaking pipes or noisy pumps.
• The Dual conductor cancels any electromagnetic interference and has a one-point connection
• For primary heating (In-slab), space at 3", 4" or 5" for heat outputs of 21W, 17W and 12W per sqft
• For Frost Heave protection, space at 6" to 8" for heat outputs of 10W to 7W per sqft
• It's approximately 1/3 the cost of a hydronics system
• There are no maintenance costs.  Install it and simply enjoy warmth when you want it
• It's more flexible in terms of zoning than hydronics and better zoning means more efficient heating with lower running costs.
• Available in a 240V, as well as 120V, letting you heat large areas on one 15A thermostat
• We recommend installing the system on insulation boards so that all the heat is sent up into the floor, thereby maximising the system's efficiency and reducing the running time.
• It's fast to install
• It's versatile - other floor surface can be installed over the top, should you, or future owners wish to choose that option.
• It is UV resistant and environmentally friendly, making it ideal for embedded situations.

All Warmup systems are operated by our easy-to-program 4-event/7 day thermostat.  It has an integrated Class-A GFCI, making it ideal for wet rooms.  For accurate temperature control, the thermostat has three settings ambient, floor probe or ambient and floor probe.

The extensive range of cables are covered by Warmup's unique SafetyNet Installation whereby if you accidentally damage the wire during installation, but before the final pour, Warmup will replace the heater free (terms and conditions apply).  The heater comes with a 10-Year Warranty (transferable to future owners).
