 | PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS Heating Element Model: EP-30-2-24W-24V
Output Wattage (at 24 Vac): 7.8 W/ft (25.6 W/m) @ 68ºF (20ºC)
Nominal Resistance: 74 Ω/ft (23 Ω/m) @ 68ºF (20ºC)
Width: 12" (30.5 cm) Length: Cut to Order Thickness: 3/64" (1.2 mm) | | | - STEP Residential™ is designed to provide even and comfortable warmth in a home. The system is ideal for both renovation and new construction.
- STEP Residential™ can heat the whole house our just single rooms. A heat loss calculation is required when total heating is expected.
- STEP Residential™ can be used under almost any flooring including, tile, stone, wood, laminate, resilient and carpet.
- STEP Residential™ can also be installed under the subfloor between the joists when the existing flooring is to be maintained.
- STEP Residential™ operates on 24 volts and is normally connected to a transformer but it can also be run on solar or wind power.
- STEP Residential™ is self-regulating. As the material gets warmer, less electricity passes through the plastic – therefore it is extremely energy-efficient.
- STEP Residential™ is strong, thin and flexible, easy to install and can be cut to size on the job site.
