AMORPHOUS HEATWAVE
OUTDOOR UNDERGROUND HEATING SYSTEM
The future of underground energy efficient heating has arrived! TruHeat’s Amorphous HeatWAVE® is the ultimate underground heating solution when it comes to commercial or residential projects. Specifically designed to provide unmatched energy efficiency, the HeatWAVE® system is far more superior to any hydronic or any electric cable based underground/snow melting system.
Based on our patented amorphous metallic tape technology, the HeatWAVE® system is a proven heating technology that has been used successfully for decades in a large number of differ¬ent projects around the world. Intended for use under concrete, asphalt, paving stones, gravel and natural or artificial grass to heat sport fields of all types such as football, rugby, tennis, golf etc. as well as for agricultural applications.
The Amorphous HeatWAVE® is a fully customizable system to operate on various power voltage sources, AC or DC: 110-600 Volts, as long as the current limit is met. Low voltage (below 50 volts) usage is also possible. Output power can also be customized based on the wattage requirement so you are never stuck with using high amounts of energy and every application can have its own requirements.
GENERAL CONSTRUCTION
The Amorphous HeatWAVE® is based on a unique design of fully grounded heat-tracing cable made of amorphous metallic tape enclosed in a mechanically robust flexible enclosure.
The element is designed to meet IEEE 515.1 standards for underground and outdoor exposed applications and are fully certified and listed by INTERTEK and proudly carry the ETL mark.

EASY INSTALLATION
The Amorphous HeatWAVE® heating system is perfect for any indoor/outdoor heating application whether it is commercial or residential. Simply lay out the heating ribbons under any terrain and cover with your choice of terrain. With its flexible design, the heating ribbon(s) can be installed in any direction to maximize ease of installation. The Amorphous HeatWAVE® is ideal for driveway heating, under paving stones, concrete slabs and under soil for greenhouses/sports fields.
UNDER ASPHALT
- 1. BASE SOIL/SAND LAYER
- 2. RIGID FOAM INSULATION*
- 3. AMORPHOUS HEATWAVE
- 4. CONCRETE/CEMENT LAYER
- 5. ASPHALT
* Insulation is not mandatory, but optional. If applied energy consumption will be lower and the surface above will heat quicker at the desired temperature. For the insulation layer we recommend all slab grade insulation with a heat threshold rating of continuous 70°C (158°F).
* HeatWAVE ribbon must be protected by concrete layer before pouring hot asphalt. Direct pour of hot asphalt on the HeatWAVE ribbon will damage it.
INSIDE CONCRETE SLAB
- 1. BASE SOIL/SAND LAYER
- 2. BASE GRAVEL LAYER
- 3. RIGID INSULATION*
- 4. RE-BARS
- 5. AMORPHOUS HEATWAVE ATTACHED TO RE-BARS
- 6. CONCRETE LAYER
UNDER PAVING STONES
- 1. BASE SOIL/SAND LAYER
- 2. BASE GRAVEL LAYER
