Summary of Guide5.1 Heating System Design:5.1.1 The heating system shall be designed to satisfy theheating needs of the buil
16、ding and to work effectively with allbuilding materials specified for use in the heating systeminstallation.NOTE 1The architect bears the responsibility of preparing and corre-lating complete plans and specifications, and to engage a professionalfamiliar with the heating system to design the system
17、to meet therequirements of 5.1.1 and 5.1.2.5.1.2 The heating system shall be designed so that a gypsumproduct is not exposed to a temperature more than 125F(52C) for periods of time sufficient to cause calcination.NOTE 2The foregoing requirement is intended to provide guidance toheating system desig
18、ners, consistent with Specification C 840,intheabsence of a comprehensive radiant heating system standard.5.2 Installation of Heating Equipment:5.2.1 Installation of radiant heating and related electricalequipment is governed by codes and regulations, and is theresponsibility of other trades.5.3 Gen
19、eral Installation Guidelines:5.3.1 The application of gypsum panel products under thisguide shall be performed in accordance with SpecificationC 840, except as herein modified.5.3.2 The radiant heating system shall be disconnected fromthe electric supply prior to the commencement of work.NOTE 3Disco
20、nnection from the electric supply is accomplished byswitching the heating system circuit breakers off, or removing fuses.Lowering a thermostat setting until the heating system turns off is notsupply disconnection.5.3.3 Unless the concealed radiant heating system is nolonger in use and has been perma
21、nently disconnected from theelectrical supply, or unless the previous facing has beenremoved, gypsum panel products or gypsum plaster shall notbe installed as a new facing on the heated area side of anexisting concealed radiant heating system.NOTE 4The increased thickness resulting from addition of
22、gypsumpanel products or gypsum plaster to an existing concealed radiant heatingsystem can impair heat transfer into the heated area, and may causeoverheating of the electrical heat source.5.3.4 All inspection and testing of the heating system shallbe completed before application of gypsum facing mat
23、erials.5.3.5 Care shall be taken in the installation of fasteners toavoid the penetration of heating equipment and electricalconductors.5.3.6 The radiant heating system shall not be operated toaccelerate the drying of joint compound or texture finishes.5.3.7 Follow the radiant heat-source manufactur
24、ers start-upand operating instructions when operating the radiant heatingsystem.5.4 Repair of Cable Heating Systems:5.4.1 Repair of heating cables is the responsibility of othertrades.5.4.2 The application of gypsum plaster shall conform toSpecification C 842 except as herein modified.5.4.3 Filler a
25、dded to gypsum plaster used to repair a heatingcable system, if any, shall be of sand or similar thermallyconductive material. Thermal insulating fillers such as ver-miculite or perlite, and foaming agents that impair heat transfershall not be used in plaster applied to radiant heating systems.5.4.4
26、 Application of metal lath shall conform to Specifica-tion C 841. Metal lath and fasteners installed for repair of acable heating system shall not contact heating cables.5.4.5 Complete embedding of the heating cable in plaster isnecessary after cable repair is completed.5.5 Flexible Radiant Heating
27、Panel Systems:5.5.1 Application of gypsum panel products shall complywith the requirements for System I or System II of Specifica-tion C 840, as applicable, based on the specified number oflayers; and with the requirements of System XII where floatinginterior angles are used.5.5.2 Application of gyp
28、sum panel products to steel framingor furring shall comply with System VIII of SpecificationC 840.5.5.3 The thickness of a gypsum panel product installed asa facing shall not exceed the thickness specified in the heatingsystem design specification.NOTE 5Installing facing thicker than specified can i
29、mpair heat trans-fer into the heated area, and may cause overheating of the electrical heatsource.5.5.4 Furring of any material or construction shall not beinstalled between gypsum panel product facing and flexibleradiant heating panels.NOTE 6The air gap produced by furring can impair heat transfer
30、intothe heated area, and may cause flexible radiant heating panels to overheat.5.5.5 All joints and heads of fasteners shall be finished inaccordance with Specification C 840, to the specified level offinish.NOTE 7When repairing an existing surface, the level of finish of therepair should be the sam
31、e as that of the original surface.5.5.6 Foil backed gypsum panel products shall not beinstalled in contact with thin sheet flexible radiant heatingpanels.5.6 Decoration:5.6.1 The heating system shall be turned off and allowed tocool before decorating.5.6.2 Decoration of finished work, including sizi
32、ng or seal-ing, shall not proceed until joint compound has dried.5.6.3 When texture finishes are used, such finishes must bethoroughly dry prior to heating system operation.6.
