User questions & answers

Question:	Can you use this under luxury vinyl tile? The lifeproof type with underlayment backing
Answer:	If you want it to be waterproof, yes. If that is not a consideration, no. Also, I put the membrane down in one day, then left overnight to cure. I didn’t apply the tape until I was installing the tile. That is the way to avoid any raised/dried mortar at the seams. If applied the same day, it can be leveled more easily.
Question:	Can this be used under ceramic tile
Answer:	You should be able to. But you need to read the specs
Question:	are these CSA approved?\
Answer:	The printed side is up so you have a second extra layer of protection under the floor and have the grid for straight line cutting
Question:	iIwould like to install this under a section of laminate flooring, but not entire 1800 sq ft. What underlayment could i use in the unheated areas
Answer:	Am in Florida, so no basements here. But I did recently install it on our concrete base and it seems like it’ll be fine. Both sides are a moisture barrier built in. Perhaps for a basement adding a dedicated moisture barrier first would help

Why Choose ThermoFloor?

• Safe and reliable FiberThermics heating elements mean peace of mind under combustible laminate and wood floors.
• Complete solution – Subfloor, Noise Reduction, Mold and Mildew Resistance, Moisture Wicking, and Heating in one system.
• Ready-To-Go – Simply roll out underlayment, make electrical connections, lay laminate or engineered wood, and enjoy your new warm floors.

How to Choose Your ThermoFloor Mats:

• You can combine several, any-size mats to get the right total coverage.
• ThermoFloor cannot be cut. Make sure you choose the mat sizes you need to fit your specific application.
• Measure the area of the room and subtract any area with permanent fixtures or flat-bottomed furniture. Make sure the mat options you select will fit together without overlapping or cutting.
• If you need help choosing your fit, please contact our support team.

• Make sure you choose a single voltage option when purchasing multiple mats. 120V and 240V mats do not mix voltages connecting to one thermostat.
• 120V – Use this variation if you have a room under 200 sq. ft.
• 240V – Use this variation if you have a room over 200 sq. ft.

• You will need one thermostat per 200 sq. ft. with a 120-Volt system and one thermostat per 400 sq. ft. with a 240-Volt system.
• A 240-Volt system heats the same as 120-Volt, there is no need to use a 240-Volt on heated areas less than 150 sq. ft.
• Fill any unheated area with 1/8" padding.

Why Choose Electric Radiant Floor Heat?

• Directly warms the body, not the ceiling, so it feels warmer than forced-air or convective heat.
• Warms from the floor up, unlike forced air heat that leaves the legs and feet cold.
• Radiant floor heat is totally quiet. There are no noisy fans blowing warm air into the room.
• No uncomfortable drafts because there are no fans blowing air.

Cleaner & Healthier

• Cleaner, healthier and hypoallergenic because they eliminate the need for carpet.
• No dirty vents or ducts that trap and circulate air with dirt, dust mites and allergens.
• Helps to eliminate mold and mildew.
• Electric radiant floors are maintenance free, so there are no dirty filters to change.

Saves Energy

• Radiant heat feels 6-8 degrees (F) warmer than forced air. You can save an estimated 3-5% for every degree the thermostat is turned down.
• Radiant heat does not rise to the ceiling, where an enormous amount of convective heat is wasted.
• Utilizes 100% of supplied electrical energy to create warmth directly under the floor. No energy is expended operating fans or pumps.

Product description

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT THIS PRODUCT: This uncoupling membrane has been designed and manufactured by Gauti, not Schluter. If you specifically require Schluter uncoupling membranes, please do not order this product. Thank you.

• PREVENTS TILE CRACKS: Gauti Uncoupling Membrane has an open rib structure which allows for in-plane movement that effectively neutralizes the differential movement stresses between flooring and tiles. This completely eliminates a major cause of cracking and delamination on the tiled surface.
• WATERPROOFING: The polyethylene composition of the Gauti Uncoupling membrane provides reliable waterproofing for indoor and outdoor applications. It protects the flooring from any moisture penetrating through the tiling surface.
• LOAD DISTRIBUTION: The membrane provides a virtually incompressible layer within the tile assembly. The advantages of uncoupling are achieved without sacrificing point load distribution capabilities. The ability of the Gauti Uncoupling Membrane to support and distribute heavy loads while preserving the integrity of the tiled surface has been verified through extensive ANSI 108.10 compliant testing.
• VAPOR MANAGEMENT: Excess moisture and vapor between the underside of the Uncoupling Membrane and the flooring is allowed to escape through the configured channels on the underside of the membrane. This prevents moisture and vapor from causing damage to the tiling layer above the membrane.
• EASY INSTALLATION: Cut the Gauti membrane to size if required, then embed the anchoring fleece (which is laminated to the underside of the membrane) into an adhesive so that the entire surface is strongly bonded. Thinset mortar and laminate tape are recommended for a moisture sealed and crack-proof finish.

User questions & answers

Question:

Does anyone what size and shape trowel should be used for installation

Answer:

When placed on a solid foundation, columns or pillars can support tremendous loads. The same physical principle applies to DITRA installations. Column-like mortar structures are formed in the cutback cavities of the matting. Loads are transferred from the tile covering through these column-like mortar structures to the substrate. Since the matting is virtually incompressible within the tile assembly, the advantages of uncoupling are achieved without sacrificing point load distribution capabilities. The ability of DITRA installations to support and distribute heavy loads while preserving the integrity of the tiled surface has been verified through extensive laboratory and field testing, including applications exposed to vehicular traffic. - Schluter Systems

User questions & answers

Question:	Are these textured on both sides? Or is one side smooth
Answer:	3'3" wide (39")
Question:	Can somebody tell me the room diemensions that this would fit
Answer:	The price has gone up but I wouldn't hesitate to purchase again if I needed it to protect my expensive floor installation.
Question:	For basement gym should I get 1/2 or 3/4 inch mat

Question:	Will this product hold up while doing burpees and such. The ones I have now are very cheap and when I push off the interlock part seperates
Answer:	Some type of plastic with a thin layer of a felt material bonded to it. Doesn't seem toxic to me. Have used many times with no problems. Assume would be no more toxic than a plastic water bottle.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you lay this fabric down and have a truck roll over it to drop the aggregate
Answer:	Yep!! Make sure you have somewhat of a solid base under the plastic fabric and all will be well. If you couldn't have the truck back over it you would have ONE TOUGH TIME getting the fabric under the rock after it is unloaded.
Question:	If cut, so the edges fray? Can it be used a path in the garden without any mulch etc on top? It would only be down during the growing season
Answer:	The edges do fray, but minimally. We covered ours with bark mulch in our garden walk way, but also placed it on a border between a low rock wall with lithodora hanging over and a neighbor's yard that is mowed with a riding mower. Works fine. We are pleased with the product, though after a couple years it is pierced by a few very persistent weeds. Our neighbors use it as a pathways in their large garden.
Question:	is this product permeable
Answer:	The fabric is woven. I have not seen any water stand on it.
Question:	can this be used for weed barrier in a large home vegetable garden
Answer:	I would sure think so - we bought to put under gravel for a road track, and I think a side benefit is that nothing (weeds) will grow in the road area where we have the fabric.

Mutual Woven WF200

WF200 woven geotextile fabric is high quality woven polypropylene fabric that resists ultraviolet and biological deterioration, rotting, as well as naturally encountered basics and acids.

Ideal Applications

Woven geotextiles are used as a stabilization and separation fabric. They are excellent when used under pavers or stones and will help hold soil in place. Woven fabrics prolong the surface life and stabilize the foundation while providing a rugged separation layer between aggregate and subgrade.

Mutual WF200 Geotextile Fabric Suggested Installation Instructions:

1. Prepare the install area. Remove any brush from the top layer of soil. Fill in any open holes with fill.

2. Smooth and level the subgrade. The area should be flat before continuing.

3. Place geotextile in the installation area. The fabric should be stretched as tight and as flat as possible.

4. When using more than one roll, overlap adjacent rolls a minimum of 12 inches.

5. Secure the fabric in place with staples or pins. Fabric should be secured along the edges and then along any overlapping portions.

6. Loosely place fill directly on the geotextile.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this product used for tile on concrete floors
Answer:	I have the 1/2" gray and 1/2" black...textured 1 side only.
Question:	Does this roll come w/any “Kerdi band” for the joints
Answer:	Ok, this is going to involve math. :) The tiles are two feet by two feet. That's 4 square feet, so take the number of square feet in the package, and divide by 4. The 96 square feet package, for example, is 96/4=24. Thus, there are 24 tiles in the 96 square foot package. Measure the length and width of your room. If you don't want to cut a tile, round the length *down* to the nearest two feet. If your room is 13 feet 7 inches, round down to 12 feet. Then, since each tile is two feet square, divide that by two. You'll be able to fit up to six tiles along that 13 foot 7 inch wall without cutting anything. Do the same for the other wall. If you can fit six tiles along one wall, and four tiles along the other, you can fit up to 24 tiles in the room without cutting. If you instead want to cut the edges off of some tiles and go full wall-to-wall, round *up* to the nearest even number instead. So, that 13 foot 7 wall would round up to 14 instead. The rest of the procedure is identical with the dividing by two, measuring the other wall, etc.
Question:	Is this design for heated floors
Answer:	I would go with more (3/4). The 1/2 feels very thing and that extra 1/4" makes a big difference
Question:	Can you use this product in place of concrete board in bath room for putting tile over
Answer:	These are good to protects floors from barbell workouts, but they slip on (my) hardwood floors and separate with cardio movements like burpees.

Question:	What kind of thinset is need for this? Modified or Unmodified? Thanks
Answer:	Yes. It prevents cracks in the concrete from transferring to the tile.
Question:	Is this a kit of floor and heating cables? Does the thermostat come with it? No details on this page
Answer:	No
Question:	what type of adhesive do i use
Answer:	No, the DH5MA membrane from Schluter is designed for floor heating.
Question:	What type of adhesive do i use
Answer:	The first answer is WRONG ! Schluter Kerdi is a water proofing membrane that works on floors and walls over a suitable substrate. Ditra is an uncoupling membrane designed for floors, that are adequately stiff. It replaced concrete board, which does nothing to stiffen a floor.
