It’s all in a day’s work with Schluter-DITRA-HEAT-E Underfloor Heating
Cutting installation time by up to 70%, boasting an extremely low assembly height (5.5mm) and providing one unique underfloor heating system all available from a market leading innovative manufacturer - Schluter-DITRA-HEAT-E has arrived!
Schluter-DITRA-HEAT-E leaves other conventional systems out in the cold as the perfect all-in-one integrated solution for use under tiles and natural stone flooring.
Ideal for refurbishment and renovation projects thanks to its uncoupling and crack-bridging properties, Schluter-DITRA-HEAT-E is unlike anything else available due to its loose heating cables which are fixed down to the uncoupling mat free of tape as a result of its unique studded design. Offering optimum freedom for creating concentrated heating zones, as well as providing uniform spacing without the need for measuring and marking, the new system will dramatically cut installation time by up to 70%.
Time-saving benefits include:
• Easy press to lay cable – no tape or glue
• No self-levelling layer or primer laying – time saved on application
• Loose heating cable - greater flexibility
• Uniform spacing of every three studs – no measurements
• Integrated and balanced packages - all from one trusted manufacturer
• Can be tiled immediately – no waiting time
Joachim Backes, Managing Director at Schluter-Systems, commented, “Schluter-DITRA-HEAT-E makes the installation of underfloor heating simpler and easier than ever before.
Its distinct studded look and loose cabling make it an installer’s dream system, providing flexibility in size and layout and extensive time saving benefits. Its low assembly height is also ideally suited for renovation projects and it’s even suitable for installation over problematic substrates. The end result is an underfloor heating system that really does tick all the boxes whether you’re the specifier, installer or the homeowner.”
Schluter-DITRA-HEAT-E is now also available in complete box sets to accommodate all common UK room sizes such as bathrooms and kitchens. The sets contain everything needed for optimal underfloor heating including a thermostat, uncoupling mat and heating cable. Not only this, but the system can also be easily waterproofed by sealing the matting joints with Schluter-KERDI-KEBA sealing band and Schluter-KERDI-COLL sealing adhesive offering a guaranteed waterproofing solution.
Furthermore, the system can be explored and explained in detail by signing up to Schluter’s RIBA-accredited CPD seminar Modular Underfloor Heating Systems for Ceramic Tiled Floors. The seminar lasting 45 minutes, discusses both of Schluter’s innovative underfloor heating systems DITRA_HEAT-E and BEKOTEC-THERM and will explain how these systems help to protect ceramic tile and natural stone floor coverings; it will also explore the theory behind modular screed systems. Run during lunch breaks from any business premises requested, the training events will include a 15 minute question and answer session and participants will receive a certificate upon completion.
