I want to install a 3/8" wood floor above your heating elements. Won't the thickness of the crimped wire connectors to the bus braids make an uneven surface bump to apply the wood flooring to? Do I need to install another layer of plywood over it to even everything out?

Thank you for your question.  A crimped wire connector is only slightly thicker than the element thickness, which is only 3/64".  It is best to have the elements in contact with the finished wood flooring.  You shouldn't have an uneven surface bump problem, so it is not necessary to install another layer of plywood over the elements.

STEP Warmfloor™ is the most energy efficient heating available because the material itself is self-regulating and only draws the energy it needs to maintain an even temperature on the whole surface.  The heating elements cannot overheat.
