Installation under Ceiling

Installation on various types of ceilings

 

Wooden ceiling

• On the wooden ceiling is fixed insulating material, which thermal conductivity shall not exceed 0.048 W/m•K. It is fixed with construction stapler and staples.

• Heating film is fixed with a stapler, as the second layer.

Built construction will look as follows:

 

Concrete ceiling

• On the concrete ceiling are fixed wooden purlins of plywood (6 mm thickness). The purlins are 5 cm width strips of plywood, placed parallel to each other, 30 cm apart.

• On the wooden purlins with staples is fixed insulating material, which thermal conductivity shall not exceed 0.048 W/m•K.

• On the purlins with staples is fixed heating film through the insulating material, as the third layer.

Built construction will look as follows:

 

Armstrong ceiling

Installation technology depends on the distance between the subceiling and suspended ceiling. If the distance does not exceed 15 cm, heaters are attached to the subceiling in accordance with the above technology.

If the distance between the subceiling and Armstrong purlins than 15 cm, then the heating film, at first, is attached to the strips of insulating material with a stationery stapler and then is mounted on the purlins from the top. Strips of insulating material are cut in accordance with the distances between the longitudinal Armstrong purlins.

Note: Fixing PLEN with staples must be done very carefully – the most important not to puncture a part of the heater, by which flows an electric current (it is darker than the aluminum base). Staples into the heaters need to be hit as far as possible from the current supply strips.

Attention! Shorter than 2.5 m heaters do not connect directly into 230 V mains!
