SunTouch® WarmWire® 120 and 240 Voltages SunTouch WarmWire is a series resistance heating cable assembly installed over plywood, backerboard, or concrete slab (according to ANSI or TCNA guidelines), and then embedded in 3/8" (9.5 mm) or greater self-leveling or polymer-modified thin-set mortar. WarmWire is approved for installation in shower applications.

Installation Parameters • Measure and certify the correct wire resistance (ohms) value for the heating cables, record these readings in the chart provided in the installation manual. • Use of manufacturer’s alarm meter (LoudMouth™ meter) is recommended during installation. • Clean the subfloor. • Secure sections of the CableStrap™ to the floor. • Weave the heating cable across the floor area, fastening it to the strap. Distance between heating cables may be varied on-site to fit requirements and should average 2.5", 3", or 3.5" on-center. • Install the floor sensor in accordance with installation manual. • Install floor coverings as detailed in installation manual.
