Overcurrent, Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), and Ground Fault Equipment Protection (GFEP) are all types of electrical protection equipment mechanisms, but they serve different purposes and operate in distinct ways. Attached is an explanation of each and their differences.
First, what is self leveler? Self-leveler is required to allow installation of small format tiles and other floor types such as glue-down wood and LVT’s, to be laid on top of the DCM-PRO System. When used, it must be a single pour, at least 10mm deep measured from the top of the castellation (total ½”

No, unfortunately you cannot use one 240V circuit to supply power to ALL controls / heating mats. Since the thermostats have GFCI protection built-in, those areas / heating mats will need to be supplied with Non-GFCI Protected Circuits.

Tile Floor Deflection Traditionally, the accepted minimum requirement for floor rigidity is L/360 – before the tile underlayment is installed. The L/360 standard means that the floor should not deflect more than the “span” divided by 360. If the span of the joists is 10 feet (between supports), then the deflection should not be more

Yes, you can install Ultralight under Foil Heater Systems. While the Ultralight Insulation Board will deliver the best performance, the Warmup® Insulated Underlay may also be used as a more economical option for installation under a Foil Heater System. Warmup® FOIL systems are used to heat rooms under laminates, floating wood floors, and carpets. Refer

The open window function is a setting on your thermostat that will detect when a nearby window is open, letting in outside air and will adjust the temperature accordingly. TRIGGER ON: A Windows open event is triggered by a 5°C drop in temperature within any 15-minute period. When a Windows open event is detected,

The perfect installation for Warmup Ultralight Insulation Boards would be a tight and staggered seams. Instead of lining up the edges of the boards perfectly, it is extremely important to offset them a bit to provide a thermal break. A thermal break is a barrier that stops heat from moving easily between inside and outside. When you have a good thermal break, your insulation works better, which means your home stays warmer without needing to turn up the heat all the time.

If you receive the error code – 120, the cost has been entered incorrectly. KWh rates are in cents (₵), not dollars. Anything less than a dollar has to be entered starting with a decimal. Example: 14.5₵ per kWh should be entered as .145.
SOLVED: Error Code 120: kWh rate entered in the wrong format. Read More »
Warmup recommends towel warmers to be installed horizontal only. Towel warmer bars are designed to evenly distribute heat across the entire surface of the towel. Towel bars work most efficiently when towels are hung flat against them. Hanging a towel vertically reduces the surface area of the towel that’s in contact with the bar, which means it will take longer for the towel to warm up, and you might not get the desired warmth. When you hang a towel vertically, only a small portion of the towel comes into contact with the bar, resulting in uneven heating. In addition, towel bars are designed and tested to be installed horizontally, according to our installation manual. Installing them vertically could potentially compromise their structural integrity and safety.
