SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Intro-3

System Information—The Floorizwarm System is a low voltage, resistance type heating system which is ideal for

floor warming and space heating in areas 110 square feet and smaller. Floorizwarm Systems are designed to deliver approximately 10 to 15 watts per square foot, and to cover 15 to 110 square feet of floor area. A Floorizwarm System consists of three primary components:

1. The Power Unit— The Floorizwarm Power

Unit includes a step-down transformer and other elec-tronic components necessary to provide low-voltage electricity to the heating element. It is engineered to provide simple and problem free operation.

2. The Heating Element— The Floorizwarm

Heating Element is a durable coated copper cable that is chemical and gasoline resistant. Floorizwarm Heating Element (referred to herein as both “Floorizwarm Heating Element” and “Tuff Cable”) comes in various lengths and gauges, depending on system size and area to be heated. The Floorizwarm Heating Element is factory-connected to non heating Cold Leads, which are 20 feet long, and are connect-ed to the Power Unit by the installer.

3. Activation Device— The Floorizwarm System is activated by an M337 Programmable Ther-

mostat which includes a remote bulb sensor with 15' of cable. This thermostat requires 120 VAC power to operate. The thermostat provides a digital readout, and can be used in auto mode or man-ual mode.

Design Information—Heatizon Floorizwarm system is a low-voltage electric radiant heating system. Installations

include: concrete, light-weight concrete or mortar bed Heatizon Heatsink Kit Floorizwarm utilizes AC power supply for various sized heating applications. Floorizwarm Heating Element is designed to be spaced at specific intervals and lengths to produce a specified amount of heat per square foot. Floorizwarm Heating Element must always be installed in a heat sink, such as concrete, light-weight concrete or mortar bed, or a Heatizon Heatsink Kit. The heat density per square foot of the Floorizwarm System is dependent on the spacing between adjacent runs of Floorizwarm Heating Element, the length of the heating element, and the size of the Power Unit.

SPACE HEATING Floorizwarm products can provide total space heating. Like all other space-heating products, heat-loss calculations should be performed prior to selecting the appropriate Floorizwarm Sys-tem. Heat-loss calculations define the amount of heat which must be delivered in order to heat the given space. Heatizon Systems Floorizwarm products are suitable for installa-tion under most floor coverings. FLOOR WARMING Floorizwarm products can be used in conjunc-tion with a primary heat source to provide warm floors or supplemental heat. Floor warming ap-plications typically provide approximately 10 to 15 Watts per square foot. Heatizon Systems Floorizwarm products are suitable for installa-tion under most floor coverings. SYSTEM SIZING INFORMATION The adjacent table indicates the Floorizwarm packages that are available. Each Floorizwarm package contains a pre-measured length of Floorizwarm Heating Element with attached Cold Lead, the appropriate sized Power Unit, and a Programmable Thermostat with Floor Sensor. ELECTRICAL SERVICE REQUIREMENTS The Floorizwarm Power Unit requires an input of 120 VAC. INSULATION Properly installed insulation is always recom-mended by Heatizon to enhance the efficiency and improve the performance of all Heatizon Systems products.

B. SELECT LOCATION FOR THE FLOORIZWARM POWER UNIT, THERMOSTAT, AND FLOOR SENSOR

Use the following guidelines for locating the Floorizwarm Power Unit Back Plate:

Location must be easily accessible for installation, service and maintenance. Maintain a minimum of 6 inches of clearance between the Back Plate and any ceiling, wall, floor or adjacent Back Plate. Do not locate Back Plate in an area where it will be covered. Do not place in an area where high humidity is present, or where Control Unit may be exposed to water.

Determining the placement location of the Floorizwarm Power Unit Back Plate, thermostat and remote sensor is the first step in the installation process. Do not install these components now; just determine the location where they will be installed. The placement of the Floorizwarm Power Unit back plate must allow for easy future access, good air flow, and protection from moisture. Acceptable locations include garages, basements, utili-ty rooms, or mechanical rooms. The Floorizwarm Power Unit must be located within 20 total verti-cal and horizontal feet from where the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable heating Element will begin and end. The provided thermostat should be located in a convenient loca-tion in close proximity to the area where the Floorizwarm Heating Element will be located. A single gang box is required for the in-stallation of the thermostat, and should be installed at this time. It is recommend that the floor sensor for the provided thermostat be installed at the midpoint between two runs of Floorizwarm Heating Element. This will be done at the same time the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element is installed..

1-2

C. COMPLETE ELECTRICAL POWER REQUIREMENTS AND WIRING TO THERMOSTAT AND FLOORIZWARM POWER UNIT

The Floorizwarm Power Unit requires an input power of 120 VAC (see table below to calculate breaker requirements). One AWG #12/2 with ground wire electrical conductor must extend from the electrical distribu-tion panel to the thermostat, and another AWG #12/2 wire from the ther-mostat to the Floorizwarm Power Unit.

Run the line voltage wires the total horizontal and vertical distance from the distribution panel to the Thermo-stat, and from the Thermostat to the Floorizwarm Power Unit Back Plate in accordance with the NEC and lo-cal building codes. If there is a possibility that the wall may be sheetrocked or otherwise closed in prior to completion of the Floorizwarm installation, you may wish to install a “pull wire” as a pre-

caution to facilitate correct installation of the floor sensor and/or heating element cold leads.

1-3

D. INSTALL FLOORIZWARM TUFF CABLE HEATING ELEMENT

Note: A continuous continuity check should be conducted on the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element and all electrically conductive material prior to and during the pouring of concrete, installation of floor cov-erings, and immediately prior to energizing all Floorizwarm products. The circuit should always be open. Always complete a Heatizon systems “After Installation Element Test Form” (see forms in the back of this manual) immediately following the installation of the Floorizwarm Heating Element, immediately prior to covering the Floorizwarm Heating Element, and again just prior to energizing your Floorizwarm Power Unit.

Note: In order to minimize the risk of damage to the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element, Heatizon Systems recommends that the Floorizwarm Tuff Ca-ble Heating Element be installed immediately prior to the installation of the thinset concrete, mortar or other cementitious material that goes over it.

Note: The Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element comes in pre-established lengths that have been designed to deliver a speci-fied heat density. Therefore, it is essential that all of the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element contained in your kit be installed.

Begin by designing the layout of the Floorizwarm Heating Element. The design and installation of the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element will be easier if you: Purchase the correct Floorizwarm product with the proper amount of Floorizwarm Heating Element for your project. Plan the layout of the Floorizwarm Heating Element before you begin the actual installation Begin and end the Floorizwarm Heating Element in the same area, adjacent to the location you have selected for the Floorizwarm Power Unit. Run the Floorizwarm Heating Element in evenly spaced runs parallel to each other.

SAMPLE FLOORIZWARM TUFF CABLE HEATING ELEMENT LAYOUT

Warning: Never cross the Floorizwarm Heating Element over itself, the in-floor sensor wire , or any other conductive material or wire.

Page 13: HEATIZON SYSTEMS - Global Industrial · Heating Element is factory-connected to non heating Cold Leads, which are 20 feet long, and are connect-ed to the Power Unit by the installer

FLOORIZWARM TUFF CABLE HEATING ELEMENT INSTALLATION:

Make sure you have verified that you have purchased the correct Floorizwarm System to heat the area you have selected and that you have determined the correct spacing for the area you are heating, the Watts you need the system to deliver, and the size of system you purchased (see “Verify Proper Floorizwarm System Sizing”).

Plan room layout using tape measure, marking pencil, and chalk line. Lay out perimeter of area to be heated first, keeping a minimum of 3 inches from walls and or cabi-nets and the first run of element. Once the layout is complete, roll out the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element, making sure that both ends of the heating element (where the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element is pre-connected to the Cold Lead segment) are within 20 vertical and horizontal feet of the Power Unit location to accommodate Cold Lead length.

Tie off one Cold Lead at the location where the Floorizwarm Power Unit will be located Continue by laying out Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element on the predetermined layout, and fasten with plastic clips as de-scribed below for your floor surface.

Anchor the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element using the Plastic Clips and nails provided in the Floorizwarm Hardware Kit to hold Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element to wood subfloors. Never use any attachment that will compromise the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating

Element or its insulation in any way. Each 90E bend and each 180E turn requires two Heatizon Plastic Clips. Heatizon Plastic Clips should be spaced approximately every 24 inches along the length of the heating element. Heatizon Plastic Clips can be inserted around Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element, and secured to sub floor by hammering nail through anchor ends until both plastic tails are flat against sub floor sur-face. Repeat with each Heatizon Plastic Clip until all clips are secure.

If Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element is being installed directly on existing concrete, a Heatizon Anchoring Plug Kit may be purchased. Use a 1/4" cement drill bit to drill holes 1" deep in every location where a Heatizon Plastic Clip will be located. Install one Tuff Cable Anchoring Plug into each pre-drilled hole by tapping plugs until they are flush with the surface of the concrete. Tuff Cable Anchoring Plugs should fit tightly in pre-drilled holes. Insert Heatizon Plastic Clips around Tuff Cable ele-ment and secure by hammering nail through anchor ends directly into Tuff Cable plug, until both plastic tails of the clip are flat against the concrete and plug. Repeat with each Heatizon Plastic Clip until all clips are se-cure.

Continue laying out and anchoring Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Ele-ment until complete. Make certain both ends of Cold Lead attached to the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element return to the Power Unit lo-cation. When all of the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element has been installed and secured, run the second Cold Lead parallel to the first Cold Lead back to the Power Unit, and secure both Cold Leads to the stud nearest the chosen location for the Power Unit.

Conduct the first After Element Installation Test at this time.

1-4

Note: All of the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element and the connection between the Tuff Cable and Cold Lead must be surround-ed by cementitious material.

Page 14: HEATIZON SYSTEMS - Global Industrial · Heating Element is factory-connected to non heating Cold Leads, which are 20 feet long, and are connect-ed to the Power Unit by the installer

Warning: Never cut or otherwise attempt to alter the length of the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element. Always inspect the Cold Leads and the Floorizwarm Heating Element just prior to embedding in the light-weight con-crete or mortar material. In the event the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element gets cut, nicked, or otherwise damaged it must be replaced with new Floorizwarm Heating Ele-ment with factory attached Cold Leads from Heatizon Systems. Do not use Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element that has been altered, cut, nicked or otherwise damaged in any way.

Note: Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Ele-ment must not be installed in ceilings, clos-ets (floor areas that are or will be covered or obstructed by shelves, cabinets, clothing, storage items, bean bags, LoveSacs, etc.) nor over or in walls or partitions.

Note: Always allow a minimum of 1.5 inches of distance between the runs of Floorizwarm Heating Element.. Minimum, maximum and ideal spacing between Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element is determined by the size of the system purchased.

E. INSTALL THE TEMPERATURE FLOOR SENSOR

Install the floor sensor provided with the thermostat from the single gang box to the area where the heating element is installed. It is recommend that the floor sensor probe be installed at the midpoint between two runs of Floorizwarm Heating Element. The floor sensor probe portion should be secured using a plastic clip and nail on the wire just above the floor sensor probe. Run the other end of the wire through the single gang box located at the chosen thermostat location. Make sure the floor sensor probe does not come into contact with the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element.

1-6

The Floorizwarm Power Unit requires an input power of 120 VAC (see table below to calculate breaker requirements). One AWG #12/2 with ground wire electrical conductor must extend from the electrical distribution panel to the thermostat, and an-other AWG #12/2 wire from the thermostat to the Floorizwarm Power Unit. Remove the cover screws from the top and bottom of the Power Unit, remove the cover and set cover aside. Familiarize yourself with the Transformer and its associated wires. The two large black wires on top of the Transformer are labeled #3 and #4. These wires will eventually connect to the two Cold Leads coming from the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element. The two small black wires at the bottom of the Trans-former are labeled #1 and #2, and are used to connect to the hot and common wires from the thermostat. One of these wires runs through a fuse at the bottom of the Floorizwarm Power Unit back plate. The green wire is used to ground electrical connec-tion for the Floorizwarm System. Install Romex Connectors into two of the pre-drilled holes or knock outs in the Floorizwarm Power Unit back plate. One of the upper pre-drilled holes or knock outs will be used for the Cold Leads, and one of the lower pre-drilled holes or knock outs for the primary power. Push through the back to the front, and tighten down the locking nut on the front of back plate. Using the provided #8 panhead screws, mount the Floorizwarm Power Unit back plate onto a stud or other adequate surface. The Power Unit should be mounted using the two designated holes in the center of the Floorizwarm Power Unit back plate. Note: The two holes in the upper corners of the back plate may also be used for mounting if needed. Run the #12/2 electrical conductor wire through the bottom hole

E. INSTALL THE FLOORIZWARM POWER UNIT

with Romex Connector. Trim end of #12/2 to needed length, and strip 4” to 5” of plastic insulation from the protruding end of the wire. This will expose three wires: a copper ground wire, a white common line and a black hot line. Run both Cold Leads through the top hole with Romex Con-nector. Trim the end of both Cold Leads to needed length and strip approximately 1” of insulation from the end of each Cold Lead. Locate the green ground wire, located at the bottom side of the Transformer, and strip approximately 1” of insulation from the end of the wire. Using one of the provided yellow wire nuts, connect the bare copper wire from the 12/2 electri-cal conductor to the end of the green ground wire. Trim end of the large black transformer wires (# 3 and #4) to the appropriate length. Strip approximately 1” of insulation from the end of the white common line and black hot line, as well as the four black wires coming from the transformer ( line #1, #2, #3, and #4) Connect the black hot line from the #12/2 to the line that contains the fuse (small transformer line #1) using a yellow wire nut, Connect the white common line from the #12/2 to small transformer line #2 using a yellow wire nut.. Connect one large transformer wire (#3) to one of the Cold Lead ends and the other large transformer wire (#4) to the other Cold Lead end, using blue wire nuts. Tuck the wires in and replace the Power Unit cover. All con-nections must be contained inside the Floorizwarm Power Unit. Do not allow any wire to be pinched between the back plate and the cover.

Note: All connections between Cold Leads and Tuff Cable must be embedded in mortar, asphalt, concrete, a Heatizon Heatsink Kit, or other acceptable ce-mentitious heat sink material.

Power the thermostat with a dedicated power supply directly from the electrical distribution panel using AWG #12-2 electrical conductor with ground wire and a 20 Amp breaker and following the thermostat manufacturer’s instructions. See the installation Instructions and diagrams that follow, or refer to ther-mostat packaging for details. Tips: The back of the thermostat has two sets of black and white wires: One pair (one black and one white on the same side of the thermostat) for the line voltage (incoming power) and one pair for load output to Floorizwarm Power Unit). Follow the diagram in the instructions, insuring that the outer black and white wires will be wired to corresponding black and white wires connecting to the Floorizwarm Power Unit, and the inner black and white wires will be wired to corresponding black and white wires connecting the thermostat to the power supply. The two copper ground wires will be connected using the wire nut (supplied with thermostat), and tucked inside the thermostat electrical gang box. Program the thermostat.

I. COVER THE TUFF CABLE

Apply enough light-weight concrete, mortar, thinset, or other cementitious material over the Floorizwarm Tuff Cable Heating Element to completely cover it in its entirety and to cover the connections of the Cold Leads and the Floorizwarm Heating Element. Conduct the third After Element Installation Test at this time.

H. INSTALL THE FLOORIZWARM THERMOSTAT

Four (4) solderless connectors for copper wires NOTE: Special CO/ALR solderless connectors must be used for connectingaluminum conductors.

One (1) floor sensor and one (1) flat tip screwdriver (F and AF floor heating models only).

Turn off power to the heating system at the main electrical panel toavoid electrical shock. The installation should be carried out by an elec-trician.

High voltage thermostats must be installed onto an electrical box. For a new installation, choose a location about 5 ft. above the floor andon an inside wall.The thermostat must be installed on an inside wall facing the heatingsystem (except for floor heating systems). Avoid locations where there are air drafts (top of staircase, air outlet),dead air spots (behind a door), direct sunlight or concealed chimneys orstove pipes (except for floor heating systems).

Connect the power base wires to the power supply and load using sold-erless connectors for copper wires (figure 1).

If your thermostat is type F or AF (not A), insert the floor sensor wires through one of the two holes below the terminals (figure 2) and connect the wires to terminals 3 and 4 (no polarity).The wires must run alongside the terminals and not go over them. The wire must not cross any heating wires nor be placed directly on a heating wire or adjacent to it. For best performance, the sensor probe should be centered between the wires in the mat.

If you wish to use a remote controller such as the CT240 or CT241, insert the cable (use 18 to 22 gauge flexible wires) into one of the two holes available below the terminal board and connect to terminals 1 and 2 of the base (figure 2).Push the excess length of the high-voltage wires back into the electrical box.Secure the power base to the electrical box using the provided screws.

If necessary, set the configuration switches on the control module (refer to the control module user guide).Install the control module onto the base.

Temperature Control

The TH115 thermostat works differently than conventionalelectromechanical thermostats. It is equipped with a proportional integral adaptive (P.I.A.)controller which determines heating cycles by analyzingthe temperature behavior history within the room.The P.I.A. controller reduces temperature variationsproviding an accurate temperature control whileincreasing user comfort.The controller determines the amount of power requiredby the heating system to maintain the setpointtemperature.

After Installation Element Test

WARNING: This test will not detect cuts in ZMesh, Tuff Cable, or Floorizwarm Heating Element.

Attached please find three forms titled AHeatizon Systems After Installation Element Test.@ Heatizon Systems recom-mends that the measurements be taken and the attached forms be completed on all zones on three different occasions. It is im-portant that the same source be used to energize the ZMesh, Tuff Cable and Floorizwarm Heating Element for all tests taken.

• Element Test #1— should be conducted immediately after the Cold Lead and Z Mesh, Tuff Cable, or Floorizwarm Heating Element has been installed and before it has been covered up with floor covering, roofing material,

concrete, etc.

• Element Test #2 — is to be conducted following the covering of the heating element and immediately prior to installing the Control Unit.

• Element Test #3 — should be conducted immediately following the energizing of the system but prior to placing it in service.

All of these tests may be conducted by using either the Control Box and Transformer provided as part of your Heatizon

Systems Product, or by using Heatizon Systems Element Tester (Part Number NI113). It is Heatizon Systems’ recommendation that each test be completed by the party responsible for the installation and witnessed by a representative of the party which con-tracted for the installation. It is essential that all of the blanks on each AAfter Installation Element Test@ form be completely filled out and that the form be signed by both the party completing the test and the party witnessing the test.

Conducting these tests will help insure that a third party or an unknown event has not adversely impacted the heating element. In addition the results of these tests may help you in any troubleshooting that must be performed on the system(s).

Warning: In the event any of the measurements taken during the three “After Installation Element Tests” are different, a

problem may exist. Do not energize your Heatizon Systems product, and call Heatizon Systems Technical Support at

(801) 293-1232 to discuss the options available.

Element Tester Instructions

Part Number NI113 1. Connect one of the welding cable leads from the Element Tester to one of the Cold Leads near the point where the Cold Leads will eventually connect to the transformer. (Note: Cold leads are the #2 wires extending from the heating element to the transformer). 2. Connect the other welding cable lead from the Element Tester to the other Cold Lead near the point where the Cold Leads will eventually connect to the transformer. 3. Plug the Element Tester power cord into a 120 VAC power source. 4. Turn the Tester to the AON@ position.

5. Using an Amp meter, read the amperage (Amps) and Voltage (Volts) and record them on the form titled AHeatizon

Systems After Installation Element Test.@ The voltage is to be read at the connection of one of the Cold Leads and the welding cable lead from the Element Tester. Amperage can be read anywhere along either Cold Lead. 6. Read and record the temperature of the area where the heating element is located. 7. Using the numbers recorded on the form titled “Heatizon Systems After Installation Element Test” and the form titled “Calculation of Element Length,” the length of the heating element can be calculated or verified.

4-1

Note: When using the Control Box and Transformer provided as part of your Heatizon product to conduct the

“Heatizon Systems After Installation Element Tests,” the entire product must be installed per this manual. Once instal-

lation is complete, conduct three Element Tests by following steps 4 through 6 above.

Note: When hardwood or tile floor coverings are placed over ZMesh, the current may increase when the folds are

compressed. As a result of this compression, the effective length of ZMesh can decrease as much as one foot per

fold.

Note: For Tuff Cable snow melt applications, the temperature will change the current in the element. For example, the

current will increase approximately 14% as the temperature drops from 80°F to 0°F.

COMMERCIAL, RESIDENTIAL & INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS

The Control Unit (Low Voltage Only) The Heatizon Control Unit is the

“brains” of the system, and houses the necessary electrical components to provide low voltage electricity to the

heating elements. Because the largest Control Unit is only

17” x 12” x 9”, it can be mounted easily on a garage, utility room

or mechanical room wall.
