Heating Cables

Heating cables

The outdoor heating cables are designed for frost protection and melting ice and snow. They may be installed with no covering on top of roof constructions, into special glue under tiles for ground constructions, or under insulation layer for pipes. 

With heating cables the areas, pipes and equipment are kept free from ice and snow at all times. It allows you to avoid heavy salting, snow shoveling, or frost damages.

The range of heating cables’ linear output for ground applications is usually 10–30 W/m (depending on application).

Heating Mats

The heating mats are used for installation in a thin layer of tile adhesive, self-leveling mixture, or similar. The standard minimum thickness of the floor layer is 5-8 mm while the thickness of electric heating mat is 3–4.5 mm. This minimizes the floor level increase. Electric heating mats consist of a thin cable securely fixed on self-adhesive glass-fiber mesh, usually of 50 cm width. Thin heating mats are manufactured as ready-made heating sections with a specific area (i.e. 0.5, 1, 1.5 … 12 m²) including a power supply cable (cold lead) and hermetically sealed connections.

Heating Mats

The outdoor heating mats are designed for melting ice and snow and may be installed into special mastic for ground, grass and asphalt constructions. Mats are available in different lengths for two power supply options—230 and 400 V.

Self-limiting Cables

The self-limiting heating cables for indoors are used for maintenance of the hot water supply and other fluids that need to maintain a certain temperature. The self-limiting capability of the cable ensures that the output increases or decreases according to the surrounding temperature. It ensures hot water in all taps, providing savings compared to a circulatory hot water system.
