Soil heating
Heating cables from Nexans have been installed in both greenhouse and football venues around the world.

In several places around the world, the climate is relatively cold much of the year. This can set limitations on the use of sports fields and farmland (e.g. greenhouses). By installing heating cables in the soil, the season can be extended considerably.
Mounting
Placement of the heating cable and installation is determined in each case. In most cases laid heating cable in connection with excavation, and at installations in football fields can heat cable is plowed down in the existing pavement with special plow. When laying large heating cable lengths it is important to ensure that the cable is not exposed to large tensile forces.
Products that are ideal for soil heating
TXLP SINGLE CONDUCTOR HEATING CABLE
Single conductor heating cable (also called drum cable) is the most suitable product for soil heating, since such systems generally comprise fairly large areas. Such a system requires a calculation and planning that should be performed by a person possessing experience with such installations.
TXLP HEATING CABLE ELEMENTS
In smaller areas, heating cable elements may also be appropriate to use. Use of heating cable elements always facilitates an easier installation job.
