TEC® Skill Set™ Adds UL-Approved In-Floor Heat System at Select Lowe’s®

New Product Makes Creating Luxury Spa Bathrooms Easier Than Ever

AURORA, Ill. - Aug. 20, 2015 - PRLog -- TEC® Skill Set™introduces a UL®-approved floor warming system to its product line of tile installation materials sold at select Lowe’s®. With its infrared radiant heat technology, TEC™ Skill Set™ In-Floor Heat allows tile contractors and experienced DIYers to efficiently install a heating system with uniform warmth underneath tile and stone floors with the assistance of a licensed electrician.

In-floor heating systems are a growing 2015 home remodeling trend. As bathrooms change from their practical roles to luxurious, spa-like environments, homeowners are seeking to improve every aspect of the space — including the floor. In fact, a luxury spa bathroom, with heated floors, is a leading way to improve a home’s value.

TEC™Skill Set™ In-Floor Heat features unique heat technology that provides total even heat distribution across the floor. It comes in three kits (15-, 26- or 50-square-foot heat mats) to accommodate various room sizes. Each kit, sold at select Lowe’s®, includes a heat mat with attached wire harnesses, scissors and edge sealing tape. The mat can easily be cut to fit the space, and the cut edges are sealed with tape conveniently provided within the kit to ensure uniform warmth. Multiple mats may lay side-by-side for consistent heat across large surface areas, like a master bathroom. And at less than 1/64” thick, the mat will not change the height of the floor—a crucial detail when dealing with spaces near doorways and where two rooms meet.

Tile contractors or experienced DIYers can apply a latex modified thinset mortar, like TEC® Skill Set™ TotalFlex® Mortar, sold at select Lowe’s®, onto the prepared subfloor to install the heat sensor and heat mat. Once the mortar has cured, tile or stone can be installed directly on top of the heat mat. The floor temperature is controlled by a TEC™ Thermostat (sold separately), which should be hooked up by an electrician.

A great, spa-like bathroom requires constant innovation to meet the demands of today’s changing trends. TEC™Skill Set™ In-Floor Heat can help in these renovation efforts and create a more relaxing, luxurious environment at home.

TEC™ Skill Set™ In-Floor Heat comes with a limited lifetime system warranty* when the product is installed with TEC® Skill Set™ mortar and grout. It’s available at select Lowe’s® stores nationwide. All TEC® Skill Set™ tile installation products are available at select Lowe’s® and online at lowes.com.
