Why are MOHAWK mats of special interest for underfloor heating?
Many features of MOHAWK heating mats make them attractive for surface heating: Efficient heat transfer because of the large surface area and the ultra-thinness of the ribbons that prevents heat absorption by the metal. This enables the mats to be used under wood and carpets. They eliminate risk, never heating too much to change the characteristic of the metal. Faster and more efficient heating because the mats can be placed directly under the surface in most cases (while most of the other systems need to be embedded in cement due to their high temperature.) Low heating inertia because of the low mass of the ribbon. Especially in a more rapidly fluctuating (on/off) mode, you can expect energy savings due to both low heating inertia and efficient heat transfer. Possibility of using cheaper/less insulating material because of the lower heating temperature used. Very convenient physical shape, allowing fast and easy installation. Higher reliability because of the low heating temperature, h
