Heatlay Mats

heating in floor radiant mat Heatlay Mats are in-floor electric heating products that comfortably warm tile, stone, laminate and engineered wood flooring materials. Each mat is pre-assembled with factory controlled precision, your assurance for an evenly heated floor and a hassle free installation. Heatlay mats install faster than any other floor heating system. They require the least installation labour, shorten project schedules and keep costs to a minimum.

Heatlay mats reduce the possibility of installation problems. All other in-floor systems are installed on a bare floor which requires the installer to walk over the cables multiple times when applying the first mortar layer. Heatlay simplifies the situation, mortar is applied directly to the bare floor and then the mat is rolled and pressed into the mortar layer by hand.

Why install in-floor heating?

Tile floors are long term investments, both beautiful and durable. The downside is that they can be uncomfortably cold for much of the year. A tile floor with electric radiant floor heating is warm to walk on and makes the whole room feel more comfortable. Radiant floor heating lets you enjoy your flooring investment 12 months of the year.

Electric radiant floor heating is comfortable, clean, quiet and maintenance free.

Electric radiant floor heating is a green choice – all of the electricity used goes to generate heat. You heat only the areas you need, and with a programmable thermostat you only heat the floors according to your personal schedule.

Installation and operation overview

The heating mats are embedded in a thin layer of mortar bonding them to the subfloor the flooring material, such as ceramic tile, is installed in a second layer of mortar on top of the heating mat. The floor is then grouted and/or finished per manufacturer's recommendation.

When power is supplied to the mats the surrounding mortar becomes warm. This warmth conducts through the mortar to the tile surface and gently radiates throughout the room. The thermostat regulates the floor temperature to pre-set comfort levels.
