Key Benefits

N

Ideal for heating entire homes with low load supplies

A great system for homes that have limited power supply – allowing you to heat your home whilst simultaneously using other appliances.

N

Made for low heat loss homes

The DCM-PRO Low Wattage System is best suited for well insulated homes where heat losses will be less or equal to 50W/m² on average.

N

Great to use with solar panels and batteries

The low load requirement of this system makes it perfect for use with solar panels and batteries, with little, or no power being required from the mains grid when heating.

Anti-Fracture Protection for Tiled Floors

The DCM-PRO Heated Decoupling System is an advanced electric underfloor heating system that is proven to protect tiled floors from any potential damage caused by lateral subfloor movements, as tested to ANSI 118.12:5.4 (American National Standards Institute).

55W/ m² Output – Ideal for Homes with Low Load Supplies

The DCM-PRO Low Wattage System features an output of 55W/m², making it ideal for use in homes with low load supplies and low levels of heat loss. If your property has a reduced Amperage supply from the grid, running a standard 150W/m² electric floor heating system could leave little power for other electrical appliances in your home. Swapping from a standard 150W/m² system down to a correctly sized 55W/m², would free up Amperage for other appliances in your home whilst the underfloor heating is on – such as your kitchen devices or an electric car charger. The low wattage DCM-PRO offers a flexible heating output of between 41.3 – 82.5W/m² – allowing you to tailor the system for your power requirements.

Renewable Technology for Low and Zero Carbon Homes – Ideal for use with Solar Panels and Batteries

The DCM-PRO Low Wattage System offers a sustainable underfloor heating solution for your home with low long-term running costs. Featuring a standard output of 55W/m², it is ideal for use in solar-powered homes with low levels of heat loss. Using this system with solar panels and accompanying batteries can provide a 100% renewable energy solution; allowing your home to be heated entirely by zero-carbon, self-generated electricity which can dramatically reduce the cost of your electricity bills. You can also use this system with a standard grid-based electricity source in energy efficient homes. The DCM-PRO low wattage heating cable can reduce the amount of power your home needs from the grid, reducing peak demands on the grid and enabling it to decarbonize. It can also facilitate the use of multiple appliances in your home at the same time without the worry of having to pay for an extra supply of power.

Wider Choice of Floor Finishes

The low wattage DCM-PRO is rated for increased floor finish resistances. This is possible due to the lower power rating of the system. This higher, maximum thermal resistance allows you to choose from an even wider selection of floor types so you can design your dream home with total freedom.

How Does the Decoupling System Work?

The self-healing decoupling layer of the DCM-PRO membrane contracts and expands to deal with lateral movements in subfloors, preventing damage from occurring to tiled floor coverings.

Protects floor surface from damage caused by lateral subfloor movement.

The self-adhesive layer or fleece backing stretches with expansion.

Decoupling layer contracts if gap shrinks due to seasonal changes.

Rapid UFH Installation

The DCM-PRO decoupling membrane has an effective self-adhesive backing that does not require additional adhesive to firmly attach it to a cleaned and clear subfloor, saving both time and cost.

The dimensions of the membrane are designed for convenient sizing so that 2m² of heating cable fits exactly 2m² of membrane. The spacing of the cable can, however, be adjusted to increase or decrease coverage and power. You don’t need any tools to install the system – simply position the heating cable by hand within the castellations of the membrane.

DCM-PRO can be tiled directly onto, or if you’re using other floor finishes that are certified for use with underfloor heating, the system can be covered with a layer of self-levelling compound. As the world’s best-selling floor heating brand, this product features Warmup’s market-leading warranties for your peace of mind.
