Appleton DFT1030 120V Floor Warming Cable

Product Description

The APPLETON DFT1030 is a 120-volt floor warming cable designed for in-floor radiant heat applications in residential and light commercial settings. The cable installs beneath tile, stone, or other hard flooring surfaces to deliver consistent, low-level heat across the floor plane. Licensed electricians typically handle the rough-in and thermostat connections, while tile setters or flooring contractors coordinate the embedment process. At 4 pounds, the cable ships as a self-contained unit ready for layout and installation without additional assembly.

This floor warming cable suits projects where supplemental radiant heat is added to bathrooms, entryways, kitchens, or other hard-surface floor areas. It operates at 120 volts, making it compatible with standard single-pole low-voltage thermostat controls commonly used in residential radiant floor systems. The compact packaged dimensions of 11 inches by 6 inches by 11 inches allow for straightforward jobsite transport and storage until installation day.

Key Features

• 120-volt operating voltage suits standard residential electrical circuits
• Designed for under-tile or under-stone radiant floor warming installations
• Self-contained cable assembly ready for direct layout on substrate
• Compact package at 4 pounds for easy jobsite handling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style floor warming cable for use with 120-volt radiant floor heat thermostat controls in residential and light commercial hard-surface flooring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements for fixed electric space-heating equipment. Shut off the circuit breaker supplying the floor warming circuit before making any electrical connections. The cable must be fully embedded in thinset or a self-leveling underlayment before the floor covering is installed — never allow the cable to overlap itself or contact bare concrete without proper embedment. Verify thermostat sensor placement per the thermostat manufacturer's instructions before closing the floor.
