first time with electric ufh mat questions?

[joshtiler]

I defintately did'nt nick or dig into any of the wires but may have brushed over lightly while spreading the adhesive, are the wires really delicate?

 

[Stewart]

I normally fit "HeatMat" and they are quite robust, but some of the cheaper mats seem quite delicate IMO.

Maybe just certain suppliers do them, there was one with my last order which was 3 weeks ago. Maybe it's only with the digital thermostats or on certain sized mats? Not sure now!!!!!

its a vysal mat? its probably me just being paranoid and i no its hard to tell without seing what i have done but appreciate your advice. For future reference is it best to use a slc or will the adhesive be good enough to use to cover the wires?

 

[Stewart]

I prefer a flexible slc.....
