This year's snow is piling up more than usual! With that said, we conducted PTC installation in Yonezawa City, Yamagata Prefecture. The most common orders we receive for PTC installations are for living rooms, dining rooms, and kitchens. I analyzed and hypothesized why this LDK (Living-Dining-Kitchen) configuration is the most popular. - The homeowners are in their 40s and are part of the child-rearing generation. - Since both parents work, no one is home during the day on weekdays. - The children spend more time relaxing in the living room than in their own rooms. - On weekends, the entire family gathers in the living room! (As children grow up, they tend to retreat to their own rooms. It's sad ← Actually, the floor heating in the living room is effective against this! Floor heating that keeps children in the living room even as they grow up! It's great! *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

First, the flooring heating work begins with the carpenter marking the blue cross line. The burrs on the subfloor are removed with a trowel. Any exposed screws are also checked with the trowel and tightened securely. Using the initial markings as a reference, we layout the sheet wiring at intervals of 303 millimeters (one shaku pitch) and drill holes with a diameter of 60 mm to drop the wiring under the floor. After thoroughly cleaning the subfloor, we lay out the sheets and drop the wiring underneath. We continue to lay them out. Once we confirm that there are no debris trapped under the sheets and secure them, the installation work is complete. After finishing the work above the floor, we connect the wiring underneath and run the wires to the controller installation area, measuring the insulation resistance and combined resistance. If there are no issues, the installation work is finished. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.*
