Note
The adhesive and the covering materials used in conjunction with Schlüter®-DITRAHEAT must be suitable for the corresponding application and meet the applicable requirements.
If installing covering materials that are sensitive to moisture (e.g. natural stone or synthetic resin panels) or in the case of moisture underneath the covering (e.g. from fresh screeds), it is recommended to trowel the sealing adhesive Schlüter®-KERDI-COLL-L over the joints of Schlüter®-DITRA-HEAT and to cover the joints with the 12.5 cm wide seaming tape Schlüter®-KERDI-KEBA. The use of quick-setting thin-bed adhesive may be an advantage for specific projects. It is recommended to lay out timber boards over pathways, e.g. for material transport, to protect Schlüter®-DITRA-HEAT.
Notes regarding movement joints:
The installation membrane Schlüter®- DITRA-HEAT must be separated above existing movement joints. Heating cables may not be installed over movement joints. In accordance with the applicable construction standards, movement joints must be continued in the tile covering. Coverings made of large format tiles over Schlüter®- DITRA-HEAT must be divided into fields with movement joints in accordance with the applicable regulations.
We recommend the use of our Schlüter®- DILEX profiles. Depending on the anticipated movements, profiles such as Schlüter®-DILEX-BT or Schlüter®-DILEXKSBT should be installed over structural movement joints.
The buildup of tensions must be ruled out at the edge of coverings, for example at upright construction elements or floor-wall-transitions. The edge joints and connection joints must meet the applicable professional regulations. Their dimensions must be sufficient to rule out the build-up of tensions. We recommend the use of our various profile types of the Schlüter®- DILEX series.
