the Wusunji Visitor Comprehensive Service Center｜Xinjiang, China

Characteristics

1. Electric Heating for a Scenic-Area Commercial Building

The Wusunji Visitor Comprehensive Service Center is located near the Kalajun Scenic Area in Xinjiang, where winter conditions create a clear demand for reliable indoor heating.

Unlike conventional residential applications, a visitor service center is a public commercial space with changing occupancy and multiple functional areas.

MENRED's electric underfloor heating system provides heat through the floor surface while keeping the main heating components concealed beneath the interior finish.

2. GMP1 Single-Conductor Heating Cable

MENRED GMP1 Series is a single-conductor electric heating cable designed for floor heating applications.

The cable uses a multi-strand alloy heating conductor and is installed beneath the floor surface to convert electrical energy directly into radiant heat.

With a rated output of 18.5 W/m, the GMP1 provides a flexible heating element that can be arranged according to the heating load and floor layout of different commercial areas.

3. Radiant Heating from the Floor Upward

Instead of relying on warm air blown from visible indoor terminals, the GMP1 heating cable creates a large radiant heating surface beneath the floor.

Heat generated by the cable is transferred through the floor structure and gradually released upward into the occupied space.

This provides a quiet heating environment without fans or airflow, making electric radiant floor heating particularly suitable for public spaces where indoor comfort and architectural cleanliness are both important.

4. Temperature Sensors for Heating Feedback

Temperature sensing is an important part of the electric floor heating system.

The installed temperature sensors monitor floor or system temperature and provide feedback to the heating controller.

Together with the thermostat, this allows the electric heating system to respond to configured temperature requirements rather than operating continuously without feedback.

5. LCD Thermostat for Local Temperature Control

MENRED LCD heating thermostats provide the user-side control interface for the GMP1 heating cable system.

The thermostat receives temperature information from the sensing system and controls heating operation according to the required temperature setting.

This combination of heating cable + sensor + thermostat creates a complete temperature-control loop for electric floor heating.

6. Zoned Heating for Commercial Spaces

A visitor service center can include reception areas, waiting spaces, service zones and other functional areas with different occupancy patterns.

Electric heating cables can be arranged according to the heating requirements of individual zones, while thermostats and sensors provide local temperature management.

This creates a flexible zoned electric underfloor heating system instead of requiring the entire commercial building to operate as one uncontrolled heating area.

7. Concealed Heating for a Tourism Destination

Kalajun is known for its alpine grasslands, forests, valleys and mountain landscapes.

For a visitor facility serving a natural tourism destination, concealed radiant heating helps preserve a clean interior environment by keeping most heating components beneath the finished floor.

This allows heating performance to be integrated into the building without visually dominating the commercial space.

More about the project

The Wusunji Visitor Comprehensive Service Center is located in Tekes County, Ili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang, close to the Kalajun Scenic Area.

As a tourism-oriented commercial facility in a cold alpine region, the project requires an indoor heating solution capable of combining thermal comfort, flexible control and a clean architectural environment.

MENRED GMP1 Series Single-Conductor Heating Cables form the heating element of the electric radiant floor system.

Installed beneath the finished floor, the GMP1 cable converts electrical energy directly into heat. The generated heat spreads through the floor surface and is released upward into the occupied space, creating a quiet electric radiant heating environment without requiring visible radiators or fan-driven heating terminals.

The heating cable works together with temperature sensors and LCD heating thermostats. Sensors provide real-time temperature feedback, while the thermostat controls heating operation according to the selected temperature setting.

The complete system therefore follows a clear control logic:

GMP1 Heating Cable → Floor Radiant Heating → Temperature Sensor Feedback → Thermostat Control

By combining electric heating cables with temperature sensing and local control, the project provides a complete commercial electric underfloor heating solution for a visitor service facility in Xinjiang.

The application also demonstrates how MENRED GMP1 heating cables can be used beyond conventional residential projects, extending electric radiant heating into tourism facilities, visitor centers and other commercial buildings in cold-climate regions.
