Measure the room size: Length × width = total area
Deduct permanently installed furniture:
- Bathtub, shower (permanently installed)
- Built-in cabinets, kitchen units
- Toilet base (approx. 0.5 m²)
- Washbasin cabinet
Movable furniture: Can remain in place – laying the heating mat underneath is not a problem
Example bathroom 3 m × 2.5 m:
- Total area: 7.5 m²
- Deduction for bathtub: -2.0 m²
- Deduction for toilet: -0.5 m²
- Deduction for washbasin: -0.5 m²
- Heated area: 4.5 m² → order a 5 m² heating mat
Step 2: Select the heating output
Standard living areas: 160 W/m² (bathroom, kitchen, living room)
Bedroom: 100-130 W/m² (reduced output for a cooler sleeping temperature)
Conservatory/poorly insulated: 200 W/m² (higher output for greater heat loss)
Step 3: Select a thermostat
Digital thermostat: For easy operation and time programs
WIFI thermostat: For smart home integration and remote control
Several rooms: Each room needs its own thermostat for individual control
Step 4: Complete set or individual components?
Recommended complete set for:
- First installation – you do not have anything yet
- Individual rooms (bathroom, guest WC)
- Simple planning – everything fits together
Individual components are ideal for:
- Several rooms with one thermostat (not recommended – each room should be controllable separately)
- Replacement of defective components
- Special requirements (e.g. particularly large areas)
Installation tips for professionals and ambitious DIY enthusiasts
Avoid common mistakes
Error 1: Switching on the heating mat too early
Problem: Tile adhesive/screed has not yet cured – cracks may develop
Solution: Wait at least 28 days, then heat up slowly (increase by 5°C daily)
Error 2: Floor sensor positioned incorrectly
Problem: Sensor lies directly on the heating cable – measures too high a temperature, room remains cold
Solution: Position the floor sensor precisely between two heating cables and install it in a protective conduit
Error 3: No continuity test before covering the mat
Problem: The heating mat was damaged during installation—this is only noticed after tiling
Solution: An electrician tests the resistance and insulation BEFORE covering the mat with tile adhesive
Error 4: Heating mat installed under permanently installed furniture
Problem: Heat buildup under a bathtub or built-in cabinet—overheating is possible
Solution: Install the heating mat only in freely accessible areas, leaving permanently installed furniture uncovered
Error 5: Incorrect heating output selected
Problem: Too little power—the room will not get warm; too much power—unnecessarily high costs
Solution: 160 W/m² for standard living spaces; if in doubt, seek advice
Professional tips for a perfect installation
Tip 1: Photograph the installation plan—it helps prevent damage during future drilling
Tip 2: Test the heating mat with a multimeter before, during, and after installation
Tip 3: Use a protective conduit for the floor sensor—it allows later replacement without removing the tiles
Tip 4: Lay the power cable in a conduit—it makes future repairs easier
Tip 5: Do not install the thermostat in direct sunlight—it will distort the temperature measurement

Increase energy efficiency – save on operating costs
Tip 1: Use intelligent time programs
Bathroom example:
- 06:00–08:00: 24°C (morning routine)
- 08:00–18:00: 16°C (daytime setback)
- 18:00–22:00: 22°C (evening routine)
- 22:00–06:00: 16°C (night setback)
Savings: Up to 40% compared with continuous operation
Tip 2: Room-by-room control
Each room has its own thermostat – heat only the rooms you use. Heat the guest WC only when needed, the main bathroom daily, and the kitchen as required.
Savings: Up to 30% through targeted heating
Tip 3: Choose setback temperatures correctly
Do not switch it off completely – a slight reduction (16–18°C) is more efficient than letting the room cool completely and reheating it.
Savings: Up to 20% through optimized temperature reduction
Tip 4: Use surplus photovoltaic electricity
Use a smart-home thermostat to heat automatically when your PV system produces surplus electricity (at midday). The heat is stored in the screed.
Savings: Up to 70% through self-consumption (€0.10/kWh instead of €0.30/kWh)
Tip 5: Choose the optimal floor temperature
Do not set the temperature too high – a floor temperature of 22–24°C is entirely sufficient. Each additional degree costs approximately 6% more energy.
Savings: Up to 12% by choosing a moderate temperature
Tip 6: Combine with good insulation
Underfloor heating beneath poorly insulated rooms loses a great deal of energy downwards. Insulation beneath the heating mat, where possible, increases efficiency.
Savings: Up to 25% through insulation underneath
Sustainability & the environment – heating with a clear conscience
Combination with renewable energy
Photovoltaics: Use your own solar power for heating – CO₂-neutral and cost-effective
Green electricity: Obtain electricity from renewable sources – heat with 100% climate neutrality
Heat pump: Combine electric underfloor heating with a heat pump – highly efficient and environmentally friendly
Long service life reduces resource consumption
A service life of 30–40 years means: install once, use for decades – no regular replacement as with other heating systems.
No refrigerants, no oil, no gas
Electric underfloor heating requires no environmentally harmful refrigerants, fossil fuels, or leak-prone systems. Clean, safe, sustainable.
Recyclable materials
Copper pipes and plastic insulation are fully recyclable – no hazardous-waste issues at the end of their service life.
Legal information & standards
Electrical installation in accordance with VDE standards
Electric underfloor heating must be installed by a certified electrician in accordance with VDE 0100. Installing the heating mat yourself is permitted, but the electrical connection must be carried out by a qualified professional.
German Building Energy Act (GEG)
Electric underfloor heating can be recognized as a heating system under the German Building Energy Act (GEG) if it is powered by renewable energy (e.g., photovoltaics or green electricity). Combined with a heat pump or PV system, it meets modern energy standards.
Tenancy law & condominiums
Tenants: Installing electric underfloor heating requires the landlord’s consent (structural alteration)
Owners: In condominiums, you are free to decide for your own unit—no approval from the owners’ association is required
Removal: When moving out, removal may be required—but in practice it is usually not feasible (when installed beneath tiles)
Insurance & liability
Building insurance: Electric underfloor heating is part of the building structure and is included in building insurance
Professional installation: Have the installation documented by professional contractors—important in the event of an insurance claim
Warranty claims: Only with professional installation by certified contractors
