Would these be appropriate for installation on a heated concrete floor in a workshop area?

yes, if the radiant surface is not "too warm". They will also counter some of the radiant properties (similar to carpet) of the concrete floor, but I wouldn't fret too much about that.

No it would not..... I have radient heat in my whole home. This would stop the heat from rising.

I use them on a tiled floor, but you can glue some felt on so it wont hurt wood floor.

I supposed they could be installed under pavers. But I don't believe they generate enough heat to warm the pavers.

I believe it would. But much more attention would be needed to insure that extreme temperature is not used and that the floor sensor is working properly to prevent "hot spots".

no, absolutely no, place them in a regular temperature room should be fine.

I don't think they will. They are pretty sturdy. Mine are inside and it hasn't been hot enough here ( in NY) yet to melt them (they are not in air conditioning).

LEDs generate very little heat compared to cfl or incandescent bulbs. If your can had either of these type of bulbs you should be okay. Insulated ceiling type cans are fairly standard in newer construction. Hope this helps

Yes- although standing around on hot pavement might not be good in them- not sure but they're like thick balloon material so they could soften/melt if hot enough.

Hi Carl, I have used them while in my maintenance basement which has concrete walls and ceiling and seems to work fine

Yes. It appears that's what they were designed for. You wouldn't want to install these in unheated space above the sheetrock.

Not really a good choice for that application. A better choice would be a light fixture cover that goes over the fixture that allow the heat to escape but not air. The cover allows for insulation to blown over it while protecting the light fixture and allowing for the heat from the bulb to harmlessly escape. Amazon sells Tenmat Insulation fixture covers for different light styles. Once you put it on, you can seal it to the ceiling floor with foam, then cover it insulation to prevent any fire hazard.

I should work but need to keep away from excessive heat as this material is not heat proof. Plus the weight may be another factor you need to consider as well.

Yes. As long as you pour leveling cement on top of the heating element to create a smooth surface upon which to install your laminate flooring. However I would recommend installing a tile floor over it instead.

If worried about temperature I don't have any problem at the floor level. If worried about the occasional "Pop" from a natural fire, maybe something like cement backer board used in construction to cover a patio deck, purchased at any home improvement store.

These ARE paper thin, and if the lighting is cool to warm, they should work well for you. They did not work well in my application however. They were sold as being able to be used with hot theatrical lighting, but they will melt and ruin anything moderately hot that they come in contact with. Hope this helps.

Yes absolutely! That is exactly what I purchased this product for. Definitely keeps the heat upstairs where it belongs and the cold from crawl space from creeping in. I do have radiant heat in floors, though I do feel it will help keep the cold out even if you do not have radiant, Very easy install as well. Very happy, great product and inexpensive! Highly recommend.

I put the wire on top of fully dried concrete and poured concrete on top to set it, then tiled over with slate. I'm sure you could do a full concrete floor instead of tile. It would likely be warmer without the extra layer. FYI--on my first order this vendor sent the wrong length of wire. I payed for the longest and was sent one much smaller. They shipped the correct replacement length, but I had to mail the wrong one back. Very inconvenient.
