Nuheat produces radiant heat which is the most comfortable and energy efficient form of heating. Since hot air rises and cold air falls, many heating systems waste heat in the air that goes straight to the ceiling without heating the lower half of the room. Nuheat works from the ground up so the whole room, down to your feet, is warm!Nuheat is an Electric Radiant Floor Heating mat that is a pre-built and ready to install in the floor right out of the box; heated floors are that easy! Thin electric floor heating elements are sandwiched within a durable fabric mat. At only 1/8” in thickness, these mats will give your warm tiles in virtually any remodeling or new construction project. When electricity is supplied to the mats, the electric resistance warms up the wires and conducts to the flooring above, which radiates into the whole room. Nuheat produces 12 watts per square foot (or 41 BTU) at full power, producing a floor temperature of 80 – 90 degrees Fahrenheit (27 – 32 degrees Celsius) depending on the type of application and heat loss. This is why Nuheat is an economical floor heating system.
With 120 different mats available in either 120 or 240 volts there is a Nuheat Mat or combination of mats that will provide you with years of comfortable floor heating. And, all sizes are in stock at Warm Your Floor. Every one, every day.

Can I use an nuheat under floor heat product with 100% waterproof interlocking flooring called coretec US floors. It is a tile like flooring with a cork like backing on it.

Hi Leon,
When determining if the flooring you’ve chosen is compatible with an electric floor heating system, you really want to speak with the manufacturer the makes that flooring.
What you want to ask them is if they have any input as to how a heating system below the floor might affect the finished floor.
And you want to avoid trapping heat below the surface so that cork backing is not ideal.
But again, ask the floor manufacturer if they know the insulation value(called the “R-value”) of the flooring.
The total insulation value above the heating system should not exceed R-3.
Feel free to call us at 866-558-3369 with any questions you have.
Thank you, Leon!
