SECTION 1
UNDERSTANDING EverWarm Radiant Heat FILM
Carbonic Heating Film is a revolutionary solution to today’s radiant floor heating applications. The Heating Film is manufactured to make radiant floor heating more readily available, far more adaptable for unique applications and designs, and far easier to install than many other radiant floor products. Carbonic Heating Film is 40.6 inches wide (but can be cut to half the width if desired for certain applications) and is available in many lengths to accommodate your specific needs. The Heating Film may be cut to any length with the use of scissors, a razor knife, or other cutting instruments. It can also be cut at any angle needed for each application, including the cutting of a hole for an electrical outlet, toilet flange, or floor register.
There are a few things to know about the structure of the Heating Film. Electrical current-conducting copper bus bars run down the length of the Heating Film (2 bus bars are required to create heat - see drawing). Should a copper bus bar be cut during the installation of the product, you may repair it by either adding an “Adder” at the end or by installing a “Jumper” at the cut point. More about these later.
Under no circumstances should the active areas (gray) of the Heating Film be allowed to overlap itself or an adjacent piece of the Heating Film. The product includes three areas (the two white outer edge strips and the white center “Cut Line” strip) suitable for nailing and stapling to sub-floor, if deemed necessary, for the designed installation of the product. These strips are non-conductive and non-heat generating. All fasteners used to secure the Heating Film to the sub-floor (excluding adhesives), including staples or nails that are to be used, must only be placed through these designated areas and not in the active carbon (gray) heating areas. Failure to do so will cause problems with the system and/or damage the Heating Film and associated areas including the building structure. The Heating Film can be installed with either side facing up.

SECTION 1
EXPECTED FLOOR TEMPERATURE
Heating performance is never guaranteed. EverWarm Radiant Heat is designed to deliver 15 W/sq. ft., with an average attainable temperature between 75°F (23.9°C) and 104°F (40°C), depending upon the subfloor, the layers of materials included in the floor installation, and the type of flooring used. The attainable floor temperature is dependent on how well the floor is insulated, the temperature of the floor prior to start up, and the overall thermal drain of the floor mass. Insulation is recommended under the Heating Film for best performance.
WIRING ASSEMBLIES
Since this is a high voltage product, a connection system is required for power. A “Harness” is used to connect the Heating Film to a thermostat and power supply, and a Harness is used to connect multiple pieces of Heating Film in certain installations. EverWarm Radiant Heat Harnesses, Adders, and Jumpers are manufactured for either 120V or 240V applications. The wiring assemblies are designed for maximum efficiency and will work well for almost any layout requirements. It is important to note that there are six crimping terminals per sheet for the 120v Harness and four crimping terminals per sheet for the 240v Harness.
THERE ARE THREE TYPES OF WIRING ASSEMBLIES:
1. Harnesses (J, J2, J3, J4): Harnesses are used for connecting sheet(s) of Heating Film with a 12 foot long “cold lead” that is run to a thermostat, or to connect to another sheet of Heating Film. Harnesses are available in 120 volt and 240 volt configurations. For a single panel 120 volt application a “J-120” (J indicates one sheet, and 120 is the voltage) would be required.
For a dual sheet would be required. For a dual sheet configuration using 240 volts a “J2-240” (J2 indicates two sheets, and 240 is the voltage) would be required. Connections for a three sheet system would require a J3. A J4 Harness will connect four sheets of Heating Film together. If there are three and a half sheets needed, a J4 can be used by trimming off the unused portion of the Harness.

SECTION 1
2. Adders (A, A2, A3, A4): Adders are used to attach one sheet of Heating Film to another, when a thermostat cold lead connection is not required. Adders are
available in 120 volt and 240 volt configurations. To add a single sheet of Heating Film to a 120 volt system, an “A-120” (A indicates one additional sheet, 120 indicates the voltage) would
be required. To add two sheets to an existing sheet, use an A2. To add three sheets, an A3 will be required. An A4 will connect up to four sheets to an existing sheet or sheet set.
3. Jumper (JP-60): A Jumper can be used to reconnect a copper bus bar if it has been cut for completion of the layout. The Jumper is sixty (60”) inches in length and can be used on both 120 volt and 240 volt systems. They are helpful for going through door ways, around corners, around posts, and around columns. Jumpers can also be used around cut outs for floor ports
such as receptacles, registers, and floor ports.

SECTION 1
EDGE SEALING TAPE
It is critical to seal any cut that is made to the gray area of the Heating Film. The Edge Sealing Tape comes in one length (42 inches), but in two different widths, 4.8 inches wide and 2.4 inches wide. The wider Edge Sealing Tape (4.8 inches wide) is used to seal the edge of the Heating Film to which the wiring Harness, or Adder is attached. The narrower Edge Sealing Tape (2.4 inches wide)
is used to seal any cut edges where there is no attached wiring Harness, Adder, or any other cuts (including holes cut in between the copper bus bars) that have been made to the Heating Film during the installation process. The Edge Sealing Tape is a highly-adhesive fleece-backed butyl tape. The fleece backing that is the same as that used on EverWarm Radiant Heat Film, making the Edge Sealing Tape compatible with all types of adhesives.
REMEMBER: THE EDGE SEALING TAPE MUST BE USED ON ANY GRAY EDGE,
OR GRAY AREA OF THE HEATING FILM THAT HAS BEEN CUT.
THERMOSTATS
EverWarm Radiant Heat offers a variety of direct line voltage thermostats in both programmable and non-programmable models. All EverWarm Radiant Heat thermostats in the United States are GFCI-protected (required by the NEC). Each thermostat includes a floor sensor, which EverWarm Radiant Heat requires for each installation. Each thermostat senses both ambient air and floor temperatures, enabling installers to set the floor temperature to the flooring manufacturer’s desired set point, along with maximizing the potential comfort of the room’s environment. The maximum load allowed on a standard thermostat is 15 amps. The maximum amount of total Heating Film allowable per circuit translates to the following:
110-120VAC: 31.25 LINEAR FT = 100 FT2 PER ZONE (1 THERMOSTAT)
220-240VAC: 62.5 LINEAR FT = 200 FT2 PER ZONE (1 THERMOSTAT)
Installations that require a larger amount of Heating Film per thermostat (over 200 square feet per zone) will require the use of a “master” thermostat that controls a “slave” power unit. Up to 2000 square feet of Heating Film can be installed and combined using 10 slave units. Up to 10 Slave Units can be controlled by one Master Thermostat.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES:
THE FOLLOWING SECTION OUTLINES THE PREPARATION
REQUIRED PRIOR TO INSTALLING THE HEATING FILM.
FLOOR PREPARATION
1. Ensure slab or wood sub-floor is structurally sound (follow TCNA installation guidelines for sub-floor rigidity).
2. Concrete slab must be free of waxy or oily films and curing compounds (when present, mechanical scarifying is necessary). If these chemicals are present, water will bead. If the sealer is left on the floor, the mortar for the tiles won’t adhere. Remove sealer with a floor sander using medium-grit sandpaper.
3. There should not be any protrusions sticking up from the sub-floor that could impact or cause damage to the Heating Film such as nails, rebar, or any other potentially damaging material.
4. Level the floor per TCNA guidelines. Allow the compound to dry following manufacturer’s recommendations.
5. Mop or sponge the floor with clean water to remove any traces of dust.
6. Make sure the floor is completely dry before installing EverWarm Radiant Heat Film.

GENERAL INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
LAYOUT
The installation of EverWarm Film begins with planning a layout for the Heating Film. This helps the installer understand how much Heating Film will be needed, and which (and how many) Wiring Harnesses, Jumpers, Adders, and extra Edge Sealing Tape might be needed. Additionally, a pre-planned layout will determine thermostat (and possibly slave thermostat) locations.
FIRST, DETERMINE THE NUMBER OF S QUARE FEET OF HEATING FILM THAT
ARE REQUIRED FOR THE INSTALLATION. THIS WILL HELP TO DETERMINE
THE VOLTAGE NEEDED FOR THE INSTALLATION.
The Heating Film is capable of running on 120 volts or 240 volts. Installations using 120 volts are limited to 100 square feet of Heating Film per dedicated 15 amp circuit. Installations using 240 volts are capable of a maximum 200 square feet of Heating Film per a dedicated 15 amp circuit. Each circuit can be controlled individually by using a standard individual thermostat for complete zone control, or up to ten circuits (maximum 2000 sq-ft) may be controlled from one master thermostat.

SECTION 5
INSTALLING THE HEATING FILM
1. Carefully plan the layout of the Heating Film for the installation.
2. Cut the Heating Film to length required.
3. Cut any holes or notches according to the installation plan (toilet flanges, electrical outlets, floor registers, doors, etc.). Sheets of Heating Film may be laid out, side-by-side and then wired together. White, non-heating areas (nailing strips) are allowed to be trimmed off the material as needed. The Heating Film can be installed with some space between sheets, if deemed necessary; however, it should be noted that “cold spots” will form if the gap is too great for the thermal heat expansion to overlap. The thermal expansion for
this product is up to three (3) inches from the edge of the active heating area.
1. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THE ACTIVE AREAS (GRAY) OF THE HEATING FILM BE ALLOWED TO OVERLAP ITSELF OR ONTO ADJACENT PIECES OF HEATING FILM.
2. ANY TRIMMING OF THE HEATING FILM THAT INCLUDES GRAY (ACTIVE HEATING) AREAS MUST BE TAPED WITH THE EDGE SEALING TAPE.
3. THE HEATING FILM MAY NOT BE INSTALLED WITHIN TEN (10) INCHES OF ANY DRAIN, INCLUDING TOILET FLANGES.
4. NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE FORBIDS THE PLACEMENT OF NAILS, STAPLES, OR OTHER FASTENERS THROUGH THE CARBON “GRAY” HEATING AREA OR COPPER BUS BAR ZONES.
5. IF A NAIL OR STAPLE IS ACCIDENTALLY PLACED THROUGH ANY OF THESE AREAS, THE PENETRATION MUST BE REMOVED, AND THE HOLE NEEDS TO BE TAPED ON BOTH SIDES WITH THE EDGE SEALING TAPE.

SECTION 5
HARNESS, ADDERS, AND JUMPERS
A Crimping Tool (CHP-01) must be used to attach Harnesses, Adders, and Jumpers to the Heating Film.
First attach the center Terminal Crimps on the Harness so the spacing will stay “true” to the center of the Heating Film. This is extremely important when setting up to use a Multi-sheet Harness or a Multi-sheet Adder. Failure to do so will result in misalignment of the sheets and the installation won’t be able to continue until the spacing issue is corrected. It is important to note that there are six (6) Terminal Crimps per sheet for 120 volt and four (4) Terminal Crimps per sheet for 240 volt system.
The crimping terminals have 11 lance “bayonets” that are designed to pierce the outer insulation layer of the Heating Film and make connection with the copper bus bars. The Crimping Terminal is wider than the copper bus bar so it is not necessary for all the bayonets to pierce the copper bars, but care should be taken to have as many of the bayonets pierce the copper bus bars as possible. When finished, the Crimping Terminal must lay flat against the Heating Film and the bayonets must protrude through to the female side of the Crimping Terminal to be properly crimped.

SECTION 5
FOR 120 VOLT INSTALLATIONS, USE THIS FORMULA:
Example: A typical 10’ X 10’ (100 sq-ft) room will have approximately three sheets, for a total of 30 linear feet of Heating Film. Divide 218 by 30, yielding a calculated ohms reading of 7.27.
FOR 240 VOLT INSTALLATIONS, USE THIS FORMULA:
Example: A typical 10’ X 10’ (100 sq-ft) room will have approximately three sheets, for a total of 30 linear feet of Heating Film. Divide 872 by 30, yielding a calculated ohms reading of 29.07.
1 linear foot of Heating Film = 3.38 square feet of Heating Film. The linear foot calculation uses the full width (40.6 inches) of EverWarm Film. If a sheet is cut in half (20.30 inches), along the center white strip cut line, then the “linear feet” is half the length.

TESTING THE CONNECTION AND HEATING FILM;
MEASURING OHMS
Measure the ohms (resistance) by connecting the red and black wires from the “cold lead” using a volt meter. Compare this measured value to the “calculated” OHMs in Step #2. This measurement should be done with film at room temperature as temperature affects the resistance reading.
The integrity of the installation can be tested simply by measuring the resistance of the red and black cold lead wires prior to running the cold leads up through the conduit to the wall junction box. The following simple formula will provide you the CALCULATED RESISTANCE for the Heating Film installation. These calculations are based upon an average installed product temperature. These values will fluctuate +/- 20% based upon the ambient temperature in the environment in which the product is operating.
NOTE: TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK, YOU MUST NOT CONNECT THE
THERMOSTAT AND/OR A SLAVE UNIT TO THE COLD LEADS UNTIL THE
TAPING PROCEDURE HAS BEEN COMPLETED (SEE NEXT STEP).
The following formulas are voltage specific and are based on the linear length of the installed film. The value “R” represents the calculated resistance (ohms). The value “L” represents the Total linear length of Heating Film.

SECTION 5
OHM’S TESTING
A DIGITAL multi-meter is required to perform the resistance test. Analog meters (which have a needle rather than digital readout) are not recommended, as they do not provide accurate enough reading when calculating the formulas. Be sure the film is at room temperature or incorrect readings will result.
1. Calculate Resistance (ohms) as shown on the previous page #28.
2. Set the meter for the reading resistance in ohms – the symbol is Ω.
3. Touch the meter’s probes to the red and black cold lead wires from the Harness.
4. Read the resistance from the digital display.
5. Compare “calculated resistance” to “real time resistance”
If any Terminal Crimp connection was missed, the result will be that the resistance measurement will be significantly HIGHER than the calculated resistance. If the MEASURED resistance exceeds 20% of the calculated resistance, then the connections should be checked for proper contact of the Crimping Terminals to the copper bus bars. Resistance should be recorded and a second resistance test should be performed after the flooring installation to verify that no damage has occurred to the Heating Film or Harness during the installation.
APPLYING THE EDGE SEALING TAPE
Use the Edge Sealing Tape (provided in Kits) to seal both ends of the Heating Film. The Edge Sealing Tape comes in two different widths (4.8” wide and
2.4” wide). The 4.8” wide tape is designed to seal the edge of the sheet to which the Harness or Adder is attached. The 2.4” wide tape is to seal the edge of the sheet that does not have a Harness or Adder attached, or any section of the Heating Film that has been cut as part of the installation process. Simply
attach one edge of the Tape on one side of the sheet and fold over the other half, thereby s
ealing each end of the Heating Film. You may need to purchase additional Edge Sealing Tape (part #EST-4.8-42) to enable you to completely tape over and cover/seal any holes that have been cut into the Heating Film (for angles, sockets, islands, etc.).

SECTION 5
INSTALLING THE FLOOR SENSOR AND RUNNING THE
COLD LEADS UP WALL
Each thermostat includes a floor sensor. Install the sensor perpendicular to the wall at least 12 inches from the wall and not near other sources of heat. The sensor MUST be either mounted on one of the white, non- heat producing strips or placed BETWEEN sheets of Heating Film. Do NOT place floor sensor directly on the heating area. The sensor should be taped to the sheet using a piece of Edge Sealing Tape. The sensor wire is to be run to the conduit and up to the thermostat junction box. It is not uncommon to route a channel across the non-heat generating areas within the sub-floor so that the sensor is in a more level position to aid with the subsequent installation of the floor covering.
NOTE: CHECK WITH YOUR F
LOORING MANUFACTURER FOR MAXIMUM
TEMPERATURE RATING THAT IS APPROPRIATE FOR YOUR FLOORING AND SET
YOUR THERMOSTAT ACCORDINGLY.
Page 32
PAGE 321
SECTION 5
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
A single-gang junction box or a double-gang box is required for the thermostat and slave connections. Two conduits should be placed from the junction box to the bottom of the rough-in wall. One conduit is for the cold leads from the Heating Film and the other conduit is for the floor sensor. The floor sensor wire should not be placed in the same conduit as the supply leads.
NO
TE: TO REMAIN COMPLIANT WITH THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE
(NEC, ARTICLE 424 PART IX) THE ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION MUST USE A
TERMINAL JUNCTION TO BE CONSIDERED A HEATING SHEET SET. THIS IS A
REQUIRED PART OF THE INSTALLATION PROCEDURE. THE HEATING FILM
CAN ONLY BE INSTALLED ON A DEDICATED ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT(S), NOT TO
EXCEED 80% OF THE BREAKER’S RATED CAPACITY. POWER IS USED @ 15
WATTS PER SQUARE FOOT OF HEATING FILM, WITH A THERMAL OUTPUT OF
51 BRITISH THERMAL UNITS (BTU’S) PER SQUARE FOOT OF HEATING FILM.
ATTACHING THE THERMOSTAT
Before installation of the thermostat, always make sure the power is off. The installation should be done by a qualified electrician in accordance with all current electrical and building regulations. The installer needs to follow the thermostat manufacturer’s instruction manual. Once the thermostat has been installed, complete the set-up programming and make sure to program the floor sensor temperature to the flooring manufacturer’s desired temperature.
