SAVE TIME AND MONEY

The new revolutionary FLEXSnap installation system is the perfect complement to the Green Cable Surface for quick and efficient installation at minimal cost. Just follow a few steps to fully install your floor heating system and your ceramic tiles in a single day.

1. Install FLEXSnap mesh and secure to floor
2. Install the Green Cable Surface with the FLEXGlide tool
3, 4 & 5. Glaze and lay the tiles in a single day!

The system offers numerous benefits:

  • Single-day installation - The grout mixture will be the only thing left to do
  • No need to double the plywood in the floor’s structure – Tested by the Tile Council of North America and rated “Extra Heavy”. You can download the TCNA report.
  • The FLEXGlide tool allows you to install the heating cable while standing – Your back and knees will thank you
  • FLEXSnap protects the cable from being damaged during the installation process
  • Allows for more uniform surface heat due to a larger thermal mass
  • Reinforces the floor’s structure, thereby diminishing perceived vibrations
  • Allows for a more uniform transition between a tiled, heated floor and an adjacent natural hardwood floor
  • 5 year limited warranty

Let’s compare the FLEXSnap system to the traditional installation method in a 9.3 m2 (100 ft2) room to show you how much time and money you’ll save.*
