Today’s flooring choices are endless, but when choosing a floor covering to go over your Warmup heated floor, review the R-value and pick flooring that has an R-value of one (1) or less. R-values higher than one (1) would be considered an insulator that would trap heat in the floor and cause overheating (e.g., certain […]
Installation
The Dual Cable Tester monitors up to two cables concurrently and monitors the integrity of both the core to core and core to ground resistance. Throughout the installation, this device will provide a precise resistance reading(s) and flash/sound an alarm if the circuit(s) is interrupted.
Warmup’s Watchdog is simply a continuity tester. When installed correctly to a heating cable and turned on, the Watchdog will continually look for a path for electricity to travel. If there is no path for electricity to travel, the Watchdog will sound an alarm indicating there is a break in the circuit.
Adding insulation both under a slab and near its exposed edges reduces heat loss into the ground and allows the slab to heat more quickly, which lowers total operating costs.

Are you wondering if you can install radiant heating around your pool? Unfortunately, this is not permitted by code. Read more here.
Sheet vinyl is a great solution over an underfloor heating system as long as the vinyl does not have insulating properties greater than R1.5.
Warmup’s Foil heating system can not be installed on stairs or on walls. Warmup’s Foil is suitable under carpet, engineered wood, or laminate.
There is no limitation for covering an underfloor heating system, however, the thicker the materials and floor covering, the longer your system will take to heat.
If wire spacing and floor height isn’t consistent, your floor may not heat evenly. Click “Read More” for details.
