Living Heat 10K Floor Sensor

Accurate and Reliable Floor Temperature Measurement for Your Underfloor Heating

The Living Heat 10K Floor Sensor is designed to work seamlessly with our full range of electric underfloor heating thermostats, including the M5, T5, and Wi5 models. Every Living Heat thermostat comes complete with a 10K floor sensor, ensuring precise temperature control and efficient heating performance.

The floor sensor monitors the temperature of your floor, allowing the thermostat to maintain consistent comfort while protecting your flooring. By keeping the floor within the desired temperature range, it helps prevent overheating and improves energy efficiency.

All Thermostats Include a Floor Sensor

Every Living Heat thermostat is supplied with a single 10K floor sensor as standard. This ensures that your system is ready to operate immediately and provides the accuracy required for safe and efficient underfloor heating control.

Optional Backup or Additional Floor Sensors

While a single floor sensor is sufficient for most installations, professional installers often purchase additional sensors as a backup. Installing a spare sensor provides peace of mind and ensures continuous operation in case of accidental damage or sensor failure.

Additional sensors can also be installed in larger areas or multiple heating zones to improve temperature monitoring and control. This is a common practice among regular installers, particularly in commercial or high-traffic spaces where precise floor temperature management is critical.

Installation Recommendations

Install the sensor in direct contact with the floor surface, ideally in a conduit or pre-formed sensor tube. This ensures accurate temperature readings while allowing easy replacement if necessary.

For tile or stone floors, place the sensor within the adhesive layer. For screed or insulated subfloors, embed the sensor within the first layer to optimize temperature control.

Professional installers often position a spare sensor in a nearby location as a backup. This is particularly useful in high-traffic areas or large rooms where sensor damage could impact system performance.
