Install Insulation

Friction fit and staple the insulation batts in place with the faced side toward you. Leave
the extra two feet of heat tubing exposed.

5. Connect Plumbing to Heat Source

Make the plumbing connections to your boiler system or a dedicated water heater. This
is a good time to call in a professional if you’re not familiar with hot-water heating
loops.

Electric Radiant Floor Heating Systems


• An electric radiant floor heating system uses electric heating wires to heat the floors.
Installation is quick and incredibly energy efficient.

• Electric systems are also cost-effective and less expensive to install (compared to
other heating systems), especially when considering the long-term electricity costs.

• Electric systems also require no ongoing maintenance. They’re installed and ready to
go.

Installation instruction

1. Prepare Workspace

Remove the existing floor covering down to the subfloor and sweep clean.

2. Lay Out Electric Heating Mats or Cables

Lay out the electric heating mats or cables to cover as much of the floor space as
desired. Don’t overlap any part of the mats. Staple or adhere the mats or cables to
the subfloor according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Place the thermocouple provided with the mats at least 12 inches from any walls and
as close to the center of the floor as possible.

3. Level the Floor

Following instructions located on the bag, mix and pour the floor leveling compound
evenly over the entire floor. Keep adding to reach a thickness of ¼ inch or until the
mats or cables are fully submerged. Allow the compound to cure undisturbed for 24
to 72 hours.

Components
Slabs
Hollow-core Slabs:
Description: Hollow-core slabs have longitudinal voids or cores, which make them
lighter and more economical.
Uses: Flooring systems in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. They are
often used for longer spans.
Solid Slabs:
Description: Solid slabs are dense, solid precast concrete elements without voids.
Uses: Solid slabs are suitable for floors and roofs in buildings where a solid surface is
required.
Double Tees:
Description: Double tees are precast, prestressed concrete elements shaped like an
inverted "T."
Uses: Commonly used for parking garages, industrial buildings, and other structures
requiring long spans with high load-carrying capacity.
Single Tee Slab:
Description: Single tee slabs have an inverted T shape, providing structural efficiency.
Uses: Suitable for parking structures, commercial buildings, industrial facilities,
residential construction, institutional buildings, and other applications requiring long
spans and high load-bearing capacity.

Beams
Rectangular Beams:
Description: Rectangular beams have a simple rectangular cross-section.
Uses: Commonly used in various building applications, including residential, commercial,
and industrial structures.
L-Beams:
Description: L-beams have an L-shape, offering versatility and structural stability.
Uses: Used in a variety of applications, including bridges, commercial buildings, and
infrastructure projects.
Inverted Tee Beams:
Description: Inverted tee beams have a shape resembling an inverted T, providing a
broad bottom for increased load-carrying capacity.
Uses: Suitable for parking garages, commercial buildings, and industrial
I-Beams:
Description: I-beams have a cross-sectional shape resembling the letter "I," offering
high strength and load-carrying capacity.
Uses: Widely used in industrial buildings, bridges, and other structures requiring
strong and efficient beams.

Wall
Wall panels available in standard 8’-0" widths.
Can be flat, or have architectural features such as window and door openings, ribs,
reveals, textures, sandwich (insulation built-in), sculptured, etc.

Foundation
Precast reinforced concrete (RCC) foundations are structural elements that are
manufactured off-site in controlled conditions and later transported to the
construction site for installation. These foundations offer several advantages, including
quality control, faster construction, and reduced on-site labor

Staircase
Precast stairs are premanufactured stair components that are cast and cured in a
controlled environment before being transported to the construction site. These precast
elements offer several advantages, including efficiency, quality control, and faster
installation.

Precast Columns:
Vertical structural elements that provide support and stability.Commonly used to
support beams and transfer loads to the foundation in various structures, including
buildings and bridges.

Precast Panels:
Large precast elements that can include architectural finishes.Used for building facades,
cladding, and other architectural features to enhance aesthetics and reduce on-site
construction time.
