Individual Mat Not Warming Verify that all leads from all mats are connected together to power source. Areas within a mat that are not heating could be the result of damage and will require the mat to be replaced. Slow to Heat Installations on concrete slabs can require a period of several days to warm up to desired temperature especially if the slab is uninsulated in a cold climate. Set Thermostat to maximum heat to allow system to continue running until it becomes warm.
NOTE: Install baseboards or trim around the perimeter of the room. This ensures that the floor will not lift, exposing the mats. The flooring manufacturer’s instructions will have information about installing the baseboard or trim to allow the floor to float properly. Affix to the electrical panel box. In the space provided, record the numbers of all circuits to which floor heating mats are attached.
