Description

ThermoSphere Screed Cable is a robust electric heating cable designed for embedding within 40mm to 100mm concrete floor screeds, ideal for storing heat on an off-peak electricity tariff for energy-efficient warmth throughout the day.

Key Benefits

  • Advanced protective PVC coating shields the heating element during installation
  • Suitable for concrete screeds 40mm to 100mm thick
  • Variable output achieved by simply adjusting cable spacing
  • Works as a primary or supplementary heat source in insulated properties
  • IP68 rated with FEP and HR-PVC cable insulation
  • Lifetime warranty with online registration

Applications

Suited to new-build and renovation projects where the heating cable is cast directly into a concrete or screed floor, commonly specified by builders and heating installers for whole-house off-peak thermal storage heating.

Performance & Features

Fixed to foil-faced insulation at a spacing calculated to suit the room's heat loss, the cable stores heat within the screed mass during off-peak hours and releases it steadily through the day, controlled by a compatible thermostat.

Compatibility

Install with the ThermoSphere Screed Cable Fixing Profile, Staples and Staple Gun, and control with a suitable ThermoSphere thermostat.

Supplied by Millcot as part of our full ThermoSphere underfloor heating range.

FAQs

What screed depth does this need?
The cable is designed for concrete screeds between 40mm and 100mm thick, fixed to foil-faced insulation for best efficiency.

Can it be used as the main heat source for a house?
Yes, on an off-peak tariff the thermal mass of the screed stores and releases heat, making it suitable as a primary heating source in well-insulated properties.

How do I fix the cable in the screed?
Use the ThermoSphere Screed Cable Fixing Profile with the Staple Gun and Staples to hold the cable at the correct spacing before screeding.

What controls the cable?
A compatible electric underfloor heating thermostat with a floor probe, sold separately.

Is a perimeter expansion gap needed?
Yes, perimeter insulation foam should be used around the screed edge as a thermal break and expansion gap.
