- Overview
-
Nuheat standard size pre-built floor heat mats come ready to fit the room and will keep almost any flooring at a warm and comfortable temperature that you set on the Nuheat thermostat control.
You can use more than one Nuheat mat combined to fit any room size or shape, up to the amp limit of the thermostat (150 SF for 120v / 300 SF for 240v Mats). All Mats connect to the Thermostat, not to each other.
Nuheat mats are like electric blankets - you choose the size or sizes to cover your desired floor area - or ask for our expert assistance at NO OBLIGATION. The mats cannot be cut or altered - so choose the right size - we can help.

Nuheat mats are squares and rectangles in over 120 sizes and will fit any room regardless of shape or size. When installing your floor, the heating mats are set in a thin spread of mortar (the same bonding materials used to lay your tile floor). Once your subfloor is prepared, and you have installed the Nuheat mat, apply another layer of thinset or mortar, lay your tile as usual and make the final connection to the Nuheat Thermostat control.
Laminate & Engineered Hardwood: simply install the Nuheat mat as above. Next, cover the Nuheat mat with at least 1/4 inch mortar or floor leveling cement. Once the mortar has cured, install your floor according to the flooring manufacturer's instructions.
