Ditra Mat Uncoupling Membrane

Further ditra performs all these functions while still providing adequate support load distribution for the tile covering.

Ditra mat uncoupling membrane.

Designed specifically for ceramic tile and dimension stone installations ditra serves as an uncoupling layer waterproofing membrane and vapor management layer that accommodates moisture from beneath the tile covering. A significant refinement on the underfloor heating systems from the last decade it is thinner easier to install and is entirely waterproof. Ditra is an uncoupling membrane designed for ceramic and stone tile installations on floors.

This is a roll of the uncoupling membrane used in the new ditra heat system. It provides uncoupling to prevent cracked tile and grout. Uncoupling ditra tile has been successfully installed for thousands of years by incorporating an uncoupling layer or forgiving shear interface within the tile assembly. Schluter ditra heat is a modern advanced under tile floor heating system.

It is made of polyethylene creating a waterproofing layer protecting the substrate. Schluter ditra membranes provide uncoupling through free space which allows for in plane movement that effectively neutralizes the differential movement stresses between the substrate and the tile thus eliminating the major cause of cracking and delaminating of the tiled surface. Ditra can be installed over a variety of subfloors including concrete plywood osb and radiant heated floors. The ditra heat membrane not only serves as the perfect inlay for ditra heat heating wire it also performs the tile uncoupling functions of other underfloor ditra membranes.
