I'd turn it on, increase the temperature to 1 or 2 degrees above what the floor is, then leave it for 24 hours, do the same, leave it for 24 hours, do the same - and keep doing it over a week or so until it reaches maximum temperature. Then leave it for say 48 hours, then decrease it a few degrees at a time per day until it reaches its lowest temperature.

Then use it as normal when required or set the programmable timer up if you have one of those ones.

Great stuff dan i do have a programmable timer which i positioned outside of the wet-room,so it can eventually be set -up and left alone

I used to run mine for a hour during the night even if I was on holiday or something as the floor never gets too cold then which then means it takes a while to heat up the first time when you get back. But to be fair that was before decent insulation was available cheap so I never used it. I'm guessing heat up times once it's been ran for a while would be quite impressive compared to mine which was slow and unpredictable. lol
