Heatmiser Touch-E Programmable Touchscreen Thermostat

The Heatmiser Touch-E Programmable Touchscreen Thermostat is a versatile programmable thermostat designed specifically for electric floor heating systems. With a maximum switching capacity of 16A, it provides efficient control of your underfloor heating. The thermostat comes with a 3M remote floor sensor for accurate temperature measurement.

Features:

• Flexible Programming: The Touch-E thermostat can be set to work in non-programmable, 5/2 day, or 7-day programming modes, allowing you to choose the most suitable programming option for your specific needs.
• Blue Backlight Display: The Touch-E series features a blue backlight display, providing clear visibility and enhancing user experience. The backlight automatically turns off when not in use, optimizing energy efficiency.
• Self Learning Preheat: Enjoy the convenience of optimum start, a smart feature that calculates the required heat-up time for your underfloor heating system, ensuring optimal comfort at the desired time.
• Temperature Hold Facility: Set a desired temperature for a specific duration using the temperature hold feature. Once the set time has elapsed, the thermostat will return to its normal program, maintaining energy efficiency.
• Key Locking: The thermostat is equipped with key locking functionality, preventing unauthorized access and tampering with the heating system, ensuring your settings remain intact.

Installation

1. Carefully separate the front half of the thermostat from the back plate by placing a small flat head terminal driver into the slots on the bottom face of the thermostat.
2. Place the thermostat front somewhere safe. Terminate the thermostat as shown in the wiring diagram above.
3. Screw the thermostat back plate securely into the back box.
4. Clip the front of the thermostat back onto the thermostat back plate.

Important Do not install near to a direct heat source as this will affect functionality.

Important Do not push hard on the LCD screen as this may cause irreparable damage.

This Touch-E thermostat is designed to be flush mounted and requires a back box of 35mm (minimum depth) to be sunk into the wall prior to installation.

Specifications

High-Quality Construction

• 
  ProWarm Electric Underfloor Heating Sticky Mat: Utilizes the same premium cable as the ProWarm Loose Cable kit. The mat incorporates a sticky fibreglass mesh to ensure optimal heat output by maintaining proper cable spacing. Installation is straightforward—simply roll out the mat to cover the desired heating area.
• 
  Heating Cable: Series-type with twin conductors and a 4m cold lead at one end.
• 
  Cable Composition: The resistance heating wire is encased in a fluoropolymer insulation layer, wrapped in protective metal shielding, and enclosed in a final plastic outer sheath. The twin conductor cable has a final diameter of 2mm.
• 
  Junction Design: Unique design for hot and cold lead junctions ensures they are 100% foolproof.

Standards and Approvals

• 
  Standards: Meets all test requirements of IEC 60335.
• 
  Certifications: CE certified by SGS.

Performance and Benefits

• 
  Cost-Effective: Provides heat precisely where needed, optimizing heat utilization and minimizing losses.
• 
  Flexibility: Can be installed in any area or floor layout.
•

Kit Includes:

• Underfloor Heating Sticky Mat (Two individual mats if kit size over 12m2)
• Floor Primer - a high-performance universal priming/sealing agent suitable for plaster, timber, brick, and block work.
• Roller - a high-quality roller for applying floor primer to the subfloor
• Adhesive tape - works to assist in holding a mat or cable in position during installation
• 2m Floor Sensor Probe Conduit - provides a protective pathway for the sensor probe, connecting to your thermostat
• Digital thermostat (if selected) - adjust the heat settings and enjoy warm floors through a simple touch of a button

Installation

Please Note: This is a brief guide. Always refer to the full installation manual for comprehensive instructions.

1. Plan Your Layout:

• Divide the floor into a series of rectangles. Use these measurements to calculate the number and sizes of mats needed, excluding permanent or static fixtures from your calculations.

2. Prepare the Subfloor:

• For screed over concrete floors, lay insulation boards to minimize heat loss and ensure quicker warm-up times.

3. Lay the Heating Mat:

• Start with the first run of the mat. Cut the mat (leaving the cable intact) at the end of each run, turn it 90° or 180°, and continue laying.
• Once the area is covered, adjust the mat so that the loops are evenly spaced.
• Secure the mat to the subfloor using the special tape provided.

4. Electrical Connections:

• Install an RCD fused spur to power the thermostatic controller/programmer and the mat system.
• Lay the temperature probe from the timer-thermostat onto the floor, position it equidistant between two cable loops, and secure it to the surface.
• Position the unheated power supply cable from the end of the mat system near the thermostat.
• Make all necessary connections to the power supply. Run the heaters for no more than 10 minutes to ensure they are heating up properly.

5. Finish the Flooring:

• Option 1: Apply a thin, self-levelling screed over the mat and allow it to dry completely before laying tiles.
• Option 2: Directly trowel flexible tile adhesive over the mat and lay the floor tiles.
• After grouting, let the tile adhesive cure fully before switching on the system.
