The TFS 17 Twin heating cable, available from Comfort Heat Australia , can be used in a variety of installations where a sand and cement bed is being used. The TFS 17 Twin heating cable is suitable for large or small areas and is used in most wet areas. The TFS 17 Twin heating cable has a fast response time and reaches set temperature in approximately one to two hours.
As the TFS17 screed cable is a twin conductor, there is no need to return the cable to the start of the installation. This makes installations simple.
The TFS 17 Twin cable has a heat output of 175W per m² at 100mm spacing or 225W per m² at 75mm spacing. It is available in pre determined lengths ranging from 10m up to 120m. Comfort Heat staff can help in selecting the correct cable length and spacing for the specific heated area.
The TFS 17 Twin cable is installed before the cement screed, beneath any type of floor covering (generally tile). It is recommended to cover the cable with a minimum of 20mm bed of screed. The TFS 17 Twin heating cable is held on the floor by either metal retaining strip or for wet areas, clipped to wire mesh (does not affect waterproofing), with a 100mm clearance from walls and fixtures. The TFS 17 Twin cable can also be installed in a polished concrete floor. The TFS 17 Twin heating cable must not be installed over any expansion joints. For large areas, multiple cables will be installed.
