You can get 2 types. One is for heating the room. Generally the higher wattage cable. And one is for comfort for walking in tiles lower wattage cable. . Of course it will still heat room but is not meant to be the sole heating method. Also you usually get 2 thermostat sensors the one goes in the screed under the tile and you get it to operate off floor temperature. The display usually has another which operates off of ambient temperature of room and you can choose which one to use to switch on and off

See this link here. Lower wattage is just for ancillary heating of floor

Aren't all floor heating systems intended to be the sole heating method 😎
