Abstract
A self-regulating heat producing strip is disposed along each wall of a room. The strip includes at least one pair of spaced apart electrical conductors extending longitudinally along the base of at least one wall and spaced therefrom. Self-limiting conductive material is in physical contact with and forms a heat generating zone between the conductors. An electrically insulated jacket longitudinally covers the conductors and the self-limiting conductive material. Connectors are provided for connecting the conductors to a power source to generate heat in the heat generating zone between the conductors.
