Low-voltage cable is installed
in concrete or
asphalt driveways,
ramps, steps, and
walkways. This product
can be incorporated
into small or large
residential and
commercial projects
easily, cost effectively,
and virtually maintenance
free.

This cable can be
retrofit (installed into
previously poured
cement) for melting
snow and ice. Grooves
are saw cut into
concrete, and sealant
is used to protect and
secure the installed
cable. It
can also be used for
space heating and floor
warming.

Installation of Components
The Control Unit is hung between two wall studs and is mounted
to the backplate, which is included in the rough-in kit. (See the How It Works
section.) Cold lead is then attached to the transformer, which is
inside the control box, and run to the start of the cable.
The cold lead is then spliced to the cable.
The Low-Voltage Cable is spaced at 4 inches across the area to be heated. For a new
pour concrete application, the cable is secured to the remesh and raised,
if necessary, to be within 2 inches of the surface. When retrofitting the cable into
concrete or asphalt, 1/4-inch wide by 1-inch deep grooves are saw cut into the existing surface.
The cable is then laid in the grooves, after which backerod is used to fill in the space between the
cable and the surface. The surface is then sealed with concrete or asphalt sealants.
The installation of our radiant snow melting systems is fairly easy compared to other
radiant heating systems. Any electrician should not have any trouble installing the system.
A contractor could install the system and then have an electrician hook up the power. Technical support is available 5 days a week, and the installation manual, and
system diagrams are available online.
