Sale of fake floor heating Caleo and Caleo Platinum in Ukraine.

The Caleo Platinum heating film melted and the laminate fried

I bought this Caleo Platinum floor heating from the so-called official Kaleo company in Kiev in their office on the street. Lake District in December 2018. I needed a warm floor under the laminate, which could be laid under the furniture, since I did not know what kind of arrangement of furniture I would have in the rooms and my friends from Russia advised Caleo Platinum heating film.

I found the Kaleo company in Kiev on the Internet and bought 9 sq.m from them. this film into your big room. I was immediately alerted by the arrangement of the strips on the heating film, but the manager Kaleo told me that they say that for Ukraine they are drawing a Caleo Platinum film with a parallel arrangement of the strips.

Installation of this warm floor was done by Kaleo installers. In general, a month later I already started turning on this warm floor .... in the beginning I liked everything .... the warm floor warmed well .... but my happiness did not last long .... three days later I came home, and it stinks of something burning in my room ..... I started looking for what’s the matter and as it turned out in the place where I had the rug on the laminate and the Caleo Platinum heating film was installed, the laminate was darkened and it stinks of burning.

I turned off this heated floor and called the next day a company representative Kaleo. He arrived already three days later ..... their installers dismantled the laminate and it turned out that this platinum film was all melted under in the place where it was a rug .... To my questions why the film that can be put under furniture melted and it didn’t the representative of the company Kaleo is overheating clearly could not answer me ..... they say expertise is necessary, but on the spot he can tell me anything concrete. In general, they took this platinum film for verification.

And then the fun began .... Kaleo employees began to feed me breakfast. ..... that they need time to check ..... then they said that they sent this burned film to the plant in Korea and we need to wait for the conclusion from the plant. It lasted all three months and finally came to a conclusion from a plant from Korea in which it was written (the conclusion was not shown to me) that I had some stray currents in my apartment and therefore the platinum film burned out and this is not a guarantee case and they are money for they will not return it .......

I consulted with experts and they told me that all these are "fairy tales" and they simply deceive me. I contacted the Kaleo representative office in Moscow and it turned out that the so-called Kaleo in Ukraine with an office in Kiev on the street. Ozernaya has nothing to do with them. That this company is a scammer, which is registered simply as Kaleo LLC and sells fake under the Caleo brand in Ukraine.

In Ukraine, there is currently no Kaleo representative office and all that is sold under the Caleo brand is heating film, temperature controllers for underfloor heating, rod heat-insulated floor and cable mats Caleo GTcable. This is all fake!

Film underfloor heating in the home

A comment

I bought a warm floor of this particular brand. In the official representative office of Kaleo, they provided me with all the documentation on the laying procedure and operating modes and advised me to choose the film. The fact is that the warm floor was mounted on the balcony for normal heating in the heating season and other methods would have cost more with the same efficiency and greater complexity.

The box was insulated during the repair, plus according to the instructions, heat-insulating material was put on the base. I ordered the services directly at Kaleo and I myself had no relation to this process. Now I think that I did the right thing, because they did me a warm floor in a few hours and, judging by the result, professionally.

I am satisfied with the work: they showed everything, instructed about operation and safety measures, but I had to lay the finish floors myself. This process is not troublesome - I was able to complete work on the day off. Since then, the film has been warming qualitatively for the past 4 years - we usually have tea parties here, and occasionally even sleep in the winter on the balcony, without feeling any discomfort.

pros

High-quality heating, long life, can be used on the balcony, installation for several hours.

Minuses

Not.

Hazardous products

A comment

If you connect directly without a regulator, it will not warm to maximum, check first, then speak. It is very easy to run into a fake of film floors, I myself work in this area, but with a different brand of warm floors. Connected directly, heats only 30 degrees, if through a thermostat it can be heated much more strongly. Somehow, too, we got caught with a poor-quality film, it burned out in places even where they didn’t lay anything, there shouldn’t be overheating, but they also started to watch it, and it already melted the carpet. It's all the same floor, anything can be thrown at it, yes there are supposedly self-regulating floors on which furniture can be put, but on simple ones that you can’t even put a pillow on and will not step on yet, these products are very tender

pros

Easy installation, you can raise your self-esteem by saying that you yourself have made yourself a warm floor, on which you can later burn down.

Minuses

A lot of fakes, a risk to life.

Experience using Caleo underfloor heating

A comment

In the fall of 2015, he decided to insulate a cold vestibule in the house so that cats could live there at least up to -25 C.
The choice fell on the caleo warm floor, it was very beautiful they advertised it in the Leroy Merlin store, and according to the characteristics it was quite suitable for me.

The first year went well, the floor performed its functions.
In January 2017, a fire occurred, the benefit was noticed at the stage of smoke. The house is intact, everyone is intact ...
I decided to understand what was the reason (there was an idea that I did not insulate the compounds well enough).
I opened the laminate, there were no problems in installation.

The autopsy results in the photo.

I wrote to the manufacturer’s website - an interesting correspondence turned out:

caleo: Judging by the photographs, we can conclude that the film was heated to a temperature above 80 ° C, which led to the melting of the heat-reflecting material. Since the thermal film is not self-regulating (Grid 150/220), this result can be achieved in only two ways. The first is to heat the entire film to the specified temperature, i.e., do not install the floor sensor under the film, do not use the thermostat, or set the temperature to 80 ° C on the thermostat. The second is to "lock the thermal film", that is, create an obstacle to normal heat removal.

Me: I had a temperature sensor located, as I wrote earlier.
What is meant by creating a normal heat sink? I had the whole film lying in the same conditions, while the row lying nearby was in absolute order.
caleo: Something was lying / standing on the floor while the thermal film was working, but the film could not be “locked” in another way.
These films are intended only for open areas where there are no low-cost objects.

So be extremely careful if you use these floors do not try to put houses for cats on it !!!
