8.2 Troubleshooting
8.2.1 Locating a Fault in the TempZone™ Floor Heating Cable
Use a Circuit Check™ device during cable installation. These devices will provide an audible alarm if the wire
is damaged or cut during installation. A continuity checker is not acceptable for these tests.
Beware of Using a Continuity Checker!
With cables that have over 200 Ω resistance, some continuity checkers do not send enough current to get
completely through the wire and emit the noise or light that arms proper continuity. For this reason, we
always recommend using a digital ohmmeter for any product testing or troubleshooting.
After the installation, if necessary, the position of a break can be found with the WarmlyYours Troubleshooting
Kit. A time domain reflectometer (ShortStop) will not be able to find a break without an installation plan.
Repair kits and guidance are available from WarmlyYours 24/7 Technical Support at (800) 875-5285, or go to
