5.1.1 PLAN THE LAYOUT
Using the back page of this manual, make a sketch layout or a floor
plan of the room; include all permanent furnishings such as toilets,
bathtubs, appliances, cabinetry, etc. Indicate all dimensions required to
determine the available floor area and the position of the thermostat.
Important: Tools and materials required
The following items may be required to install and test the floor heating system:
• Scissors • Tape measure • Hot glue gun • Utility knife
• Screwdriver • Tin snips • Wire strippers • Multimeter
• Heatizon Plastic Cable Clips or Cable Strap
Heatizon recommends that the installation be documented with photos and drawings
to note the location of connections and the sensor, as well as the cable layout.

Before Laying the Heatwave® Mat or Cable
Note: Measure the resistance between each conductor and the shielding/ground
wire. Both should read infinity. Always complete a Heatizon Systems “Resistance in
OHMS Form” (see form in the back of this manual) out of the box, immediately following
the installation of the Heatwave® Heating Cable/Mat, immediately prior to covering the
Heatwave® Heating Cable/Mat, and again just prior to energizing the Heatwave® Heating
Cable/Mat.
