Outdoor Infrared Underfloor Heating

Melt snow and ice and heat the topsoil!

The Snow-and-Ice Melting systems are, the same as our indoor underfloor heating, based on the unique amorphous metal heating technology. They have significant advantages over other types of hydronic or electrical cable-based Snow Melting and Ice Prevention systems. We currently supply two families of AHT outdoor products:

  • Outdoor underground Heating ribbons or Mats normally at 250 – 500 Watts/M2
  • Pipe and Gutter Freeze Protection/Heat Tracing ribbon

Our Snow Melting and Ice Prevention systems provide many benefits:

  • Wider contact area with the cold ground or ice
  • Reaches the working temperature faster than other systems
  • Energy saving
  • Generates more even heat
  • Less costly
  • Extremely simple and easy to install
  • Reliable and durable.

Intended for use under concrete, asphalt, paving stones, gravel, and turf (lawns or playing fields).

Technical Elements of our Outdoor Infrared Underfloor Heating

Both product families are based on a unique design of fully grounded heat-tracing cable made of amorphous metallic ribbon enclosed in a mechanically robust flexible enclosure. The element is designed to meet IEEE 515.1 standard for underground and outdoor exposed applications.

Heating Element Performance

The heating element is of a fixed wattage. By using different widths of amorphous ribbons and different lengths of the element itself, one can achieve the required output power per linear meter/foot. Typically the high-end limit for the heating element power is 62 watts per meter. This limit corresponds to more than 5 amps on a single circuit. The heating element can be driven by various power voltage sources, AC or DC: 110-120, 208, 220-240, 400, and 600 Volts, as long as the current limit is met. Low voltage (below 50 volts) usage is also possible. The upper limit working temperature of the heating element is 700C.

Geometric Dimensions

The heating mats are designed to cover a nominal 20% of the heated area, but the normal area-covering density ranges from 15% to 30%. Other values are also possible.

Electrical Measures

The normal input power of each heating mat is 250 – 500 watts/m2. as specified on each heating mat label. Higher input can easily be achieved by reducing the spacing between parallel heating elements.

Application examples of outdoor heating systems

  • Streets
  • Special areas in cities are difficult to free from snow or ice (old towns, in front of shopping centers, etc.)
  • Airports, helicopter landing area
  • Train, Tramway, or Bus platforms
  • Private streets
  • House entrance
  • Sports fields such as tennis lawns, football fields, etc.

Price Indication for Outdoor Infrared Heating Systems

The price is calculated per running meter. Additional to the below price indication 120 BGN for the power connection plus 80 BGN for the End connection must be calculated. Depending on the size of the area several power/end connections may be necessary.

I.e. for a 100m de-icing project, the cost of the heating ribbon is 900.00 BGN + 120 BGN power connection + 80 BGN end connection = 1100.00 BGN (price excluding installation costs)

  1. Здравейте,
    бих искал да положа ваш продукт на транспортна рампа, бетон, подход към еднофамилна къща.
    Рампата е права с размери Д/Ш 38/3.5 м. и наклон 12-13 градуса.
    Бихме искали да имаме два обезледени и обезснежени коловоза с размер 50- 60 см. всеки.
    Регион Пловдив – Южен изглед.
    Предварително благодаря за консултацията и предложението.

  2. Здравейте! за максимална ефективност каква настилка препоръчвате? Става въпрос за открит подход за автомобили с лек наклон-рампа.
    Поздрави!

    • Здравейте, благодарим за интереса. По наше мнение, най-добрата настилка за рампа/подход за автомобили е асфалтово или бетонно покритие.

    • Здравейте, нашият имейл е публикуван в раздел “За нас” 🙂
      Но естествено ще Ви го предоставим: office@redsun.bg
      Пожелаваме Ви лек и успешен ден!
      Поздрави, Редсън!

  3. здравеите , трябва да направим снеготпяща системе на стълби. размера на стъпалата е : лице – 17см . широчина – 45 см и дължина 1.5 метра. 11 стъпала са, като към тях има и площадка 2х1.5 метра. ако може да ми изготвите оферта за материали с включен контролер , които да проверява за наличието на сняг и лед. телефон 0895 700 655 @mail gidika@abv.bg димитър гидиков . Благодаря

    • Благодарим за запитването, ще подготвим и изпратим подходяща оферта на посочения от Вас имейл адрес. Пожелаваме Ви лек и усмихнат ден!
