New here as of today. BTW great forum! I'm joining in from Wisconsin USA. I am looking for a new product called Ditra Heat E it is not available here in the states.... yet. Anyone know where I can buy Ditra Heat E? How much is it and how many meters/square feet are on a roll. Yes I am aware...

Hope someone can help. I'm having my kitchen refurbished and want to install UFH. The current floor looks as though it is tile on tile as, at the hall door threshold, it sits the thickness of a tile plus adhesive proud of the hall flooring. I also suspect that the concrete floor substrate is not...

So if you were using the Ditra over Anhydrite/Gyvlon type screeds what adhesive would you be using to fix the mat down with ?

Can you lay Ditra with Flexi Rapid???? :D

Hi, Planning to tile my bathroom in the next few weeks, the floor structure is chip board on the new extension size and floor boards on the old part of the bathroom. The floor is solid and I'm planning to put 6mm no more ply glued/screwed down. Do I really need to put Ditra mat down? Part of...

Hi, Just venturing over from the plumbing forums. I'm after some advice about Ditra mat, I went to a tiling shop today for some quotes on tiles and mentioned that I have 2 different floor types (wooden floor boards on old part of house and sand and cement screed on the new extension) and need...

hi all......... i know the correct procedure is ufh under ditra matting, but there are tilers out there who prefer installing the other way round, ufh over ditra. Would there not be a risk of the ufh melting the ditra. lets say the control box or probe is faulty or hasn't been installed...

Hi everyone, I've gone to see a job where the customer wants to use Schluter Ditra matting along with Warm Up UFH matting. The substrate is 18mm marine ply which is good news. What is the correct method for installing the ditra with the UFH and does ditra matting act as an insulation barrier...

hi all, im laying ditra mat on a floor ready to tile onto, any advice on the tiling side of it, havnt tiled onto ditra mat before, is it going to be a ball ache doing the cut tiles round the edges, im imagining the little squares getting clogged with ady, am i worrying for no reason?

They seem to have an issue with supply and 'on the grapevine' word of delamination. Not interested in other makes to review just this mat. Any input would be welcome.

Hi there. I'm new on the forum, I've bought myself 50M^2 Travertine and am trying to ask all the right questions before setting out. Conc floor without UFH. Here are some Q's: Slab is 1 year old, conc screed 6 months. Seems to be no dusting. Am I likely to need a acrylic primer? Some of the...

I got 35m2 of ditra for a job I'm doing at the moment, but the main contractor thinks it'll be too thick to marry up to the pool surround, so he's sent me some paper thin PCI that he says is an un-coupler, although to me it looks more like a tanking membrane, (no data sheet with it) Can anyone...

Hi I got a lot of useful advice over my last post, thanks guys: http://www.tilersforums.com/tile-adhesive-grout-substrate-preparation/46295-ditra-not-ditra.html I had reached the decision, as suggested by Stewart, which was: So I was going to put down No More Ply over the chipboard...

I have worked for a tiling company that installed UFH, the Warmup type, over Ditra matting. However, there seem to be views that doing so is not a good idea....the theory is that the wire heats up and melts the Ditra??.........could anyone enlighten me on this?

Anyone heard of/used this. Unless I'm missing something this system doesn't need fixing to the substrate! Just roll it out and tile away! Not sure I'd be too keen on using it. IndorTec® 2E | GUTJAHR Systemtechnik GmbH
