Can a Electric Floor-Warming System ever become too hot?
Electric Floor-warming systems are made with a Resistance wiring that is manufactured to produce a fixed number of Watts per Square Foot. Therefore, as long as the installation has been completed as instructed, the system could run consistently at full power without over-heating. IMPORTANT! Floor-warming systems for ceramic tile and stone should only be installed in OPEN areas. It should never be placed under items that will be fixed to or sit flush with the floor surface. The heat MUST BE ALLOWED TO DISSIPATE INTO THE AIR. SECTIONS IN WHICH HEAT IS TRAPPED MAY BECOME EXCESSIVLY HOT.
