This article introduces a new heated mercury film electrode based on a screen‐printed carbon substrate. The sensor is easy‐to‐build and the material costs compared to its iridium‐based counterpart are low. The development procedure including electrode construction, mercury deposition and thermal properties is described in detail. As first application, cadmium and lead were determined by square‐wave anodic stripping voltammetry with significantly improved signal‐to‐noise characteristics.
