Step 2 -
Layout Planning
•Determine the location of the
mirror demister, marking its
intended position of the on
the wall.
• Also mark the demister power
cable position on the wall.
• The demister must not be
cut, shortened, punctured or
creased, however the supply
cable may be shortened if
required.
•If the mirror is going to be
mounted within a rigid (metal/
wood/moulded resin) frame it
should be able to expand and
contract independently of the
frame.
Before you begin
•If the mirror is mounted
within the plane of the tiles,
ensure that it is surrounded
with a minimum 3 mm bead
of silicone to allow for mirror
expansion and contraction
when heating.
•If fixing the mirror to the wall
using adhesive or screws
ensure flexible fittings are
used, either in the form of a
flexible mirror adhesive or
flexible bushings in the fixing
holes if screwed to the wall.
NOTE: If using adhesive to
mount the mirror to the wall
ensure that it is suitable for use
with heated mirror demisters.
Please contact mirror adhesive
manufacturer for guidance.
NOTE: Take care not to
screw through the demister
if mounting the mirror with
screws.
