In Germany the concept has taken off too and, abound with handy tips for the homeviewer, formats such as "Live your wish - the House" on VOX, "Dreamhouse" in the Bavarian broadcast and "In Luck At Home" on RTL2 are increasingly popular. "In Luck At Home" is a program that frequently focuses on families who, either through illness or adverse circumstances, are no longer able to revamp their homes and in the 53rd episode, the Dittrich family decided to install an electric underfloor heating system under a laminate floor. That way, the familys son, who wasnt well, would be able to practice movement exercises on a pleasantly warm floor. No more problems with the cold! The heating system consisted of an aluminum foil mat, in which an electrical heating conductor was embedded. The heating mat was simply unrolled onto the acoustic insulation and covered with the laminate panels. Warmup offers the latest technology with a glassfibre-reinforced aluminum foil heating system. It is suitable for installation under all floating laminate and multi-layer parquet floors, where the floor mat is not nailed or stuck to the subfloor. It can even be made to measure. The foil heater is available in standard outputs of 80 W/m sup2; and 140 W/m sup2;, has a width of 0.50m and is just 1mm thin. It is operated by the programmable, user-friendly Warmupreg; XSTAT thermostat, which comes with both air and floor temperature sensors. ]] http://www.warmup.co.uk/newsitem/27.phtml 2009-01-13 ![CDATA[[...]]] ![CDATA[ Dr Simon Newberry: Raising the profile of electric UFH The Ramp;D Director of Warmupreg; Underfloor Heating, Dr Simon Newberry, has been elected the new Chair of Technical Committee of UHMA for 2009. It is the first time an electrical UFH committee member is holding this post. Dr Newberry has been an active committee member for several years while representing Warmup, and has a wealth of experience dispensing advice on electrical issues as part of the UHMA Technical committee. As part of his new role, his duties will include providing direction for technical issues for the coming year and helping to coordinate general UHMA matters. Since the majority of the members comprised manufacturers of hydronic UFH, the association has naturally focused more on wet systems. In his new capacity, Dr Newberry aims to raise the profile of the electrical side of the industry, ensuring regulatory changes are not detrimental to the industry as a whole and that consumers get correct technical information from the committee. Thanks to stringent prerequisites, all UHMA members are already proven safe in terms of product quality and installation methods. Now that Dr Simon Newberry is involved in regulatory changes, Warmupreg; Underfloor Heating systems can be counted on more than ever to be of the highest standards in material excellence and orthodox practices. Here is a quick interview with the man himself: How did you come into this position?I was asked to do it as I have been an active committee member for several years. Who nominated you amp; why did the position become available?I was nominated by Chris Ingram the 2009 Chairman of the UHMA, and then voted in at the last AGM (10th December 2008) by the General UHMA Committee (which comprises all the members). Is this for a contracted period only or a permanent position? This position is an annual posting (in this case Jan 1st 2009 to Jan 1st 2010), though I could be asked or nominated to do it again. What was your role previously? I represented Warmup as a committee member of the UHMA. I was also on the Technical committee and advised on Electrical issues. What will you be responsible for now? Chairing the Technical Committee. Also in providing direction for technical issues for the coming year. I will also be helping to coordinate general UHMA issues. You are Ramp;D Director at Warmup; how will you balance your responsibilities with Warmup with the interests of other underfloor heating companies? All the members are Directors or senior managers of underfloor heating companies. Although I am there as a member due to Warmup, my role is to represent the industry as a whole and to ensure technical issues are handled correctly and fairly. If a conflict arises, the welfare of the industry must be the primary consideration. What are the criteria for joining UHMA? To join the UHMA, the company needs to have the correct credentials. They have to provide proof that all their products are ldquo;soundrdquo;, compliant with all the relevant regulations and that the company provides all the appropriate materials to ensure safe and proper implementation of their systems. What are the benefits of being a UHMA member? Representation in the industry via regulatory boards and committees as opposed to being a passive industry member. This leads to being involved and advised on regulatory changes. Promotion of UFH while ensuring fair practice. Are there new changes you plan to implement? What are the key objectives/issues youll like to tackle as the new Chair of Technical Committee? As the UHMA has been predominantly hydronic UFH, my aims are as follows: To promote the inclusion of the electrical side of the industry To ensure regulatory changes are not detrimental to the industry as a whole To ensure consumers get correct technical information from the committee Who are the members made up of currently?

From thousands of products featured every year in Qualified Remodeler, Warmups Carbon Heating System was one of the most often requested by their subscribers. Warmup exclusively offers the only UL Listed carbon heater in North America, for engineered wood and laminate flooring to provide primary or secondary heating without warping or cold spots. The low-profile heaters are custom cut and delivered to the site within five business days from receipt of the order. The simple-to-install panels come in both 12 and 36 inch widths for excellent area coverage and in 120VAC and 240VAC for use throughout the home or office. The ultra thin (thinner than a dime) panels have pre-spaced one-inch parallel carbon strips distributing heat safely and evenly, providing a uniform heat distribution, to prevent warping. Thermostatically controlled, with a self-regulating feature means the system will only reach a maximum temperature of 85ordm;F/26.5ordm;C, providing luxurious warmth with design freedom. No other heater on the market heats laminated floors more evenly and efficiently. For fuel efficiency, Warmup heating systems operate via an Energy-Star rated programmable thermostat which includes an energy-monitoring feature. To maximize the systems energy efficiency, Warmup also sells R2 insulation boards, heating a room up to 10 times faster on both cement and wood subfloors. Sharon Mangino, General Manager for Warmup Inc, based in Connecticut said ldquo;It is an honor to be part of Qualified Remodelers Top 100 List. At Warmupreg;, we work continuously to offer cutting edge, yet affordable floor heating solutions.rdquo; ldquo;With the popularity of laminate and engineered wood flooring, we have seen rapid growth in the sales our radiant heating range from builders and contractors wanting to add affordable luxury to their projects. Sales have far exceeded our expectations since its launch last year. The response to our entire underfloor heating range has been enormous, says Mangino.rdquo; Warmups underlaminate heaters complement their ADEX award-winning matting system and loose wire system for ceramic tile and stone. Warmups trained staff offers a free quote and layout service, turned around the next business day, once exact area measurements are faxed or e-mailed to them. The company offers unparalleled 24/7 toll-free hotline customer service support for any problems or installation questions.

There is a multitude of choices out there from water-based to wire systems that are either embedded in some fashion or just laid underneath the levels of flooring. Warmup, has added to the pack of choices with its ultra-low profile carbon heater system for laminate floors. This months Remodelers Choice is a British import that we brought to you in our November 2006 issue of Qualified Remodeler. Started in 1994, Warmup started with lowprofile wire radiant heating systems for under tile. In 2002, Warmup hit the global market and brought its innovation to the United States. Warmups latest creation is the Radiant Electric Floor Heating System for laminate floors and floating floor systems. This system is installed under the floor to provide either primary or supplementary heat. These heaters are energyefficient and provide a safe, even distribution of heat. Warmup Underlaminate Heaters are sold in two widths (12- and 36-in.) and are thin (thinner than a dime), so they wont raise floor levels. ldquo;Radiant systems give even heat across a room,rdquo; says Sharon Mangino, general manager of the United States operations. ldquo;With forced-air systems heat is moving up and around and can cause rooms to be cold in the middle. People prefer warm feet and tend to feel warmer with heat radiating from the floor mdash; even if its colder around the head level.rdquo; More and more, radiant heating is being used as a primary heat source, Mangino says, and to slightly warm up tiles during the summer when the air conditioning is on. Warmup has also seen applications go beyond just the kitchen, bathroom and sunroom. It is getting more interest from yacht and RV home owners. Among Warmups other products is its Loose Wire System. It has designed this system using a 0.12-in., ultrathin, dual-core heating element. The small cross-section of this element allows it to be installed in a matter of hours with no need to dig up the floor or mix concrete. It is just simply laid down on the subfloor and tiled over. To make this wire system even simpler, Warmup also offers a Undertile Matting System. The electrical heating cable is attached to a tough fibreglass mesh, rolled out before tiling and connected to a programmable thermostat. Although Warmup does offer a 30 year warranty transferable to any new homeowners and a SafetyNet Guarantee on the loose wire and matting system, this doesnt ensure proper working order. Mangino states that it is important to test the system before tiling to make sure there are no problems. Up next for Warmup, the company is looking to dive deeper into U.S. market and look at new technologies for a warm future. ldquo;I think by 2010, fifty percent of homes and offices will have underfloor heating,rdquo; adds Mangino.]] http://www.warmup.co.uk/newsitem/13.phtml 2007-09-28 ![CDATA[Warmup,reg; a global manufacturer and industry leader in underfloor heating products, introduces their state-of-the-art underlaminate carbon heater to compliment their range of heating systems for different flooring needs.

In a continuous effort to offer simple and affordable floor heating solutions, Warmup has now expanded their range to include a radiant heating system for underlaminate and engineered wood. Simple to install, the made-to-measure panels are only 1mm thick so they wont raise floor levels. They can be taped and secured to either a concrete or wooden subfloor in a matter of hours, with no mess or drying times involved. A qualified electrician is needed, however, to wire the panels to the thermostat.The technologically advanced heaters are energy efficient and provide a safe, even distribution of heat. There is no warping or overheating due to the positive temperature coefficient which self regulates the system, meaning the warmer the element gets, the lower the energy draw (maximum heating capacity is 80ordm;F/26.5ordm;C). It has been tested extensively and is C-UL listed, giving peace of mind. The self-regulating panels are available in 12 and 36 inch widths in both 120 and 240V.The heaters are controlled by an Energy Star rated programmable thermostat which is sold separately. Readings from the underfloor probe sensor ensure the precise temperature setting for the floor.

The award recognises the successes of the capital's SMEs in trading internationally under UK Trade amp; Investment's (UKTI) Passport to Export programme.To win, Warmup demonstrated a clear indication of future plans and commitment to consolidate and/or increase international sales and the company has shown evidence of how an international trade strategy has translated into results.International director Howard Flood attributes the success to lsquo;going back to basics. ldquo;We asked ourselves who the decision maker is,rdquo; he said. ldquo;We made sure we were talking to the right people. We also targeted our sales and marketing materials to explain the benefits of our system and made sure we were attending the right trade shows to gain exposure to those people. We had our brochures and installation manuals translated to make the information even more accessible.rdquo;ldquo;Local knowledge is important and so is having people who speak the language,rdquo; Flood continued. ldquo;The formula we have in the UK does not necessarily work elsewhere. The UK has a big DIY market and people are prepared to spend weekends installing a system whereas in Latin countries we have a network of installers because people dont want to do it themselves.ldquo;Although they are thought of as warm countries, Spain and Portugal have been very good markets for us. They have a lot of ceramic and marble flooring, which gets cold in winter. With our systems you can take the chill off without having a full central heating system.rdquo;ldquo;High service levels are essential. We typically respond to inquiries with an emailed quote within 24 hours. By taking this approach and following these simple procedures we have grown the Spanish market ten fold and the US is 30-40 per cent up.Even prior to joining Passport to Export, Warmup had already started exporting to Germany and the US. In the past 18 months the company has received orders from 12 further countries. With all of this growth more space was needed. Warmup has moved its headquarters in the UK to larger factory and office premises, where a night shift has been introduced to step up production to keep pace with increased demand. In addition, new sales staff had been hired and more appointments are planned later this year.Ideal for almost any flooring, Warmups extensive range of BEAB-approved heating systems is used in kitchens, bathrooms and conservatories and are backed by industry-leading warranties.

The wire comes already pre-spaced on a sturdy fiberglass mesh; all you have to do is roll the mat out and tile straight over it.

It simply gets absorbed into the layer of tile adhesive.Warmups new heater wire is constructed using a thin, dual-core element that makes installation a breeze. Where previously both cable ends had to be wired back to the thermostat, the new dual-wire system now eliminates the need to loop the wire to the start point making installation faster than before. The original loose wire system is ideal for smaller, irregular shaped areas. All Warmup heating products have received BEAB and UL approval.To complement the heating range, Warmup offers their optional state-of-the-art insulation backer boards which greatly improve energy efficiency, thereby saving money and heating a room up to 10 times faster on both cement and wood subfloors.

As more people remodel and improve their homes, radiant heat is seen to be a key feature that offers luxurious warmth and significant resale value, yet is affordable to install and operate. It runs independently from the central heating on its own thermostat, so you control where and when the floors are set warm.rdquo;ldquo;As more homeowners lay tiles, stone, laminate and engineered wood throughout their home, Warmup has a range of ultra-thin heating systems that gently warm the different floor surfaces.
