Schluter-Systems DITRA-HEAT (120V) Floor Heat Cable, warms 32 sq ft [DHEHK12032]

The Schluter-Systems DITRA-HEAT twisted pair heating cable is designed to snap directly into the DITRA-HEAT uncoupling membrane, which is sold separately. This EMF-cancelling radiant heating cable can be installed directly onto the DITRA-HEAT or DITRA-HEAT-TB cable installation membrane (also sold separately) for use under tile or stone flooring, providing both comfort and a touch of luxury to your living space.

One of the key benefits of the DITRA-HEAT system is its thin, durable, and energy-efficient design. The cable operates at 120V and produces an output of 12.75W per square foot, making it a highly efficient heating solution. Each cable can heat up to 32 square feet and comes with a 106-foot spool and a 10-foot armored power lead, providing ample coverage for most residential or light commercial applications.

The DITRA-HEAT cable is incredibly easy to install, as it simply snaps into the uncoupling membrane without the need for any clips or fasteners. This eliminates the requirement for self-leveling compounds to encapsulate the heating cables, saving time and effort during the installation process.

When it comes to safety, it's important to note that the heating cable should never be cut, as this would alter the cable's resistance and could potentially lead to a fire hazard. Instead, it's crucial to ensure that the size of the heating cable matches the area to be tiled, as using a cable that is too large for the space would result in excessive heating.

In conclusion, the Schluter-Systems DITRA-HEAT electric floor heating system offers a convenient, energy-efficient, and safe solution for adding comfort and luxury to your living space. Its thin, durable design, easy installation, and reliable performance make it a top choice for homeowners and contractors alike.

Remember, when selecting a heating cable, it's essential to choose one that is appropriately sized for the area to be heated, as using a cable that is too large could pose a serious safety risk. By following the manufacturer's instructions and taking the necessary precautions, you can enjoy the benefits of a warm, comfortable, and energy-efficient floor heating system for years to come.
