This Will NOT work for heating elements or radiant floor heating. It's design is for laminate flooring. I would suggest to contact the manufacturer that is selling the heat elements. Hope this Will help.

Yes. The unit is not a traditional heating element heater. You can touch the unit and you will not get burned.

My first response would be yes but always be sure that it doesn't get too warm. The heat may even irritate the area.

You may pick up a small amount of radiant heat if hoy stop for a while.No problem when moving.

Yes. It can be used with any electric radiant floor system. All these systems are VERY similar to each other. We have Thermosoft in both our bathrooms, and are very pleased with it. At the time that we bought (2 separate occassions), this brand was the least expensive and is easy to install. Be sure to buy and install a backup floor sensor (not wired to thermostat but left in case first fails or gets cut).

I don't think that would be a problem since the heating unit is inside the wood frame and does not touch the floor. Mine is partially on carpet. However, I never leave it on when I am not there. Just to be on the safe side. Hope that helps.

I would say no. It's designed more for putting under a desk to warm your legs and feet. And, it's more of a radiant heat. I'm very pleased with it for that purpose. I use it in a cold, unheated basement under a computer desk. I think you'd have better luck with a small ceramic heater.

Yes, BUT use caution. Lift the heating element up . I have taken a bath towel and wrapped the element up. WIPE all surface up with dry towel. Make sure ALL moisture is gone BEFORE Using. This is great product But safety prevails.

I use them on my laboratory hotplate nearly every day with no ill effects. Of course an oil bath would likely be better and reduce thermal stresses somewhat, however mine work just fine directly on the hotplate surface which reaches 400*C.

Im sure the manufacturer of your floormate says no, but I'd assume it would work okay, this is the concentrate version so you would want to mix it down appropriately first.

You won't get a lot of radiant heat. I bought an adapter switch that has a hi/lo on it. The regular mat temp is quite hot, and I keep mine on low. The regular mat temp might give off enough, being tucked under a desk in an enclosed area. I'd give it a go..the warmth is comforting!

Given that this unit is sold as an Infrared Heater - Wall Mount I would strongly advise about positioning it on a floor surface.

It will provide some thermal insulation, laminate floor surface is not nearly as cold as the Linoleum in my kitchen or bathrooms. Can't quantify the value, but there is some difference.

Yes...because the product is made of stainless which can be used with induction heating.It is a quality product. I hope you it.

Yes, you can use this on any type of flooring unless you have a special coating that might break down with steam.

This unit, like all infrared heaters, are only intended to be supplimental heat. That being said, i have been able to heat the whole 2nd floor of my cape. Its a large cape, so we're talking roughly 900sqft. Just make sure you consider where you run the unit in relation to the thermostat.
