200w/m2 Heat Mat

Roma 200w Under Tile Heating Mats & Karndean / Vinyl.
Roma 200w heat mats are the perfect solution for under tile and natural stone, however the mats can also be installed beneath a ‘stuck down’ Karndean or Vinyl floor (with self levelling compound embedding the heating before the flooring is laid). Multiple mats can be used to cover larger areas that require heating. The mats sizes range from 0.5sqm – 12sqm,
 
Installation.
Over a stable wood, concrete or screed sub floor the 200w mats can be laid directly down. To drastically increase the efficiency and the response of your heating, we recommend either a cement coated tile backer board, or an XPS board to be installed under the heating. Insulation is especially important over sub floors without inbuilt insulation as they will minimise any heat loss downwards. Once the heat mats have been rolled out, they must then be be embedded with either a self levelling compound or flexible tile adhesive, before your final floor covering is laid.
200w systems specifics.
 
The Roma 200w heating mats are suitable as a primary heat source in any commercial or domestic areas, however when installing into an out house or conservatory the 200w option is advised. Please make sure that a minimum floor coverage of 80% is achieved and that suitable insulation is installed.
All Roma heating cables and mats come with a lifetime guarantee. If you do experience a fault or break under the floor after installation, we have a specialist team that can locate and repair faults with minimal disruption to you. Most repairs are done quickly and conveniently, worst case scenario is that a tile may have to be lifted to complete the repair.
150W/m2 v 200W/m2 Underfloor Heating Mats.
 
The main difference between 150w and 200w system is the warmup time/response. Both wattages will use a similar amount of electricity but the 200w option will therefore warm up the floor quicker. Although a 200w system uses more electricity to warmup the floor per hour it will however, get to temperature quicker and therefore turn off quicker. Whereas the 150w option will use the same energy but over a longer period of time.
