While the concept of electric radiant heat is not a brand-new one, the latest technology that has improved it to its current state-of-the-art condition is quite new. So new, in fact, that your vision of electric radiant heat may be flawed and outdated.

It used to be that electric radiant heat was difficult and time-consuming to install, and ran the risk of hot and cold spots due to uneven cable spacing. This is because electric radiant heat used to be supplied as one long continuous length of cable with the consumer having to weave the cable up and down the floor at a pre-determined spacing and making a return loop to complete the circuit.

However, recent and improved designs in electric radiant heat cables have a built-in return meaning that you only have one end to connect instead of having to close the circuit by bringing each end of the cable back to the thermostat. Far from complicated to install, electric radiant heat cable mats have taken the hard work out of the install by having the radiant heating cable already pre-spaced on to a nylon mesh and all you have to do is simply start at your thermostat location and roll it out over the floor until it’s all used up.

Electric Radiant Heat Tip: The innovative electric radiant heat cable mats save time and offer a lowered risk of having hot and cold spots.
