Detailed Product Description

The SMW warmfloor is based on 1,2 mm thick and 34 cm wide heating elements of carbon-enriched polyethylene with copper braid embedded along both edges. All of the plastics are electrically conductive. Because of the resistance in the material, heat is developed. An advantage of this technology is the self-regulating effect. The elements are cut to desired lengths and clips are mounted for wire connection. Safety transformers running on 24 Volt ensures a secure system.

The self-regulating effect (PTC), means that every little piece of the plastic is its own thermostat. When room temperature increases, the resistance in the material increases and electricity consumption decreases .This also happens under local area covering in this way the elements can not overheat. The temperature on the heating elements rarely exceeds 27 to28°C when connected to 24 Volt. Floor surface temperature will normally be 25 - 26~C, giving a comfortable and healthy floor heating for both people and animals.
