Enjoy Warm Tile Flooring
Considering adding the soothing warmth of heated floors to your home? If so, look no further. ThermoTile is a superior in-floor heating system that is perfect for heating tile and stone. It is also compatible with a variety of other flooring types such as wood, engineered wood, vinyl, and carpet. But what is ThermoTile exactly and what benefits should you know about? Let’s take a closer look at this electric floor heating system.
What Exactly is ThermoTile Heated Floor System?
ThermoSoft is a radiant heat technology company that provides safe, reliable, and efficient heated floor systems. ThermoTile is one such system that uses electrically powered heating cables designed to be embedded in mortar or cement. This system is available in loose cable form or in mat form, each offering their own benefits. Let’s take a look at each of these options to determine which is right for you.
ThermoTile Mats
This system is the easiest to install and offers a degree of flexibility as the mesh in each ThermoTile mat can be carefully cut (avoiding the heating cable), and turned to fit the shape your room. Since the mat comes with evenly distributed pre-spaced cables, you will save time on measuring and attaching cables to the subfloor. Simply roll out the mats and plug them into your thermostat.
ThermoTile Cable
The ThermoTile cable comes in a roll of loose cable which accommodates areas of ANY size and shape. This is the best option for irregular shaped rooms and spaces with many permanent fixtures to work around. This system is budget-friendly and more flexible than the mats given the nature of the loose cable design. The cables can be arranged and secured to the ground with our FixFast hold down straps as needed. Installation does however take a bit longer due the measuring and placement of the cables.
ThermoTile Cable with Membrane
You can speed up the installation of ThermoTile cable by pairing it with an uncoupling membrane. This is a lightweight and durable polyethylene sheet with evenly spaced studs which provide a channel to run your cable. The membrane is secured to the subfloor. The cable is then snapped into place between the studs without the need for clips or fasteners.
Uncoupling membranes are highly recommended when installing tile since they offer protection from both tile and grout cracking. They also provide vapor management, waterproofing, soundproofing and a thermal break that reduces the time it takes to heat up your floors. ThermoSoft offers three types of membranes, Schluter DITRA-HEAT®, Prodeso®, and Prova FLEX-HEAT®. Speak to a member of our team to decide which is best for your application. Now, let’s take a look at some of the benefits this system has to offer.
Superior Performance and Healthy Air
A ThermoTile heated floor system gently heats the room and decreases your usage of forced air systems that spread dust and allergens throughout your home. The evenly spaced cables provide a consistent temperature reducing drafts and concentrating heat lower in the room where you need it. Unlike forced air systems that are noisy when cycling on and off, ThermoTile is completely silent.
Strengthen the Floor
Each ThermoTile mat consists of a durable fibreglass mesh which was engineered to keep the cable flat to the ground. These mats actually strengthen the floor and the same is true for the ThermoTile cable when installed with a membrane. And in case you are wondering, ThermoTile is backed by a lifetime limited warranty providing peace of mind.
100% Efficient & Maintenance Free
The ThermoTile electric floor heating system converts 100% of energy into heat. This efficiency is simply unmatched by both HVAC systems and hydronic floor heating systems. And because the system doesn’t have any moving parts or filters to replace, there is no maintenance required! This saves you money on costly repairs and frees up time that can be better spent elsewhere.
Final Thoughts
The ThermoTile in-floor heating system is compatible with most flooring materials. While the mats offer ease of installation, loose cable is considered the “budget friendly” option with greater flexibility. When cable is installed on a membrane, it can speed up installation and increase the life of your flooring.
