Can i use self leveling compounds over schluter ditra or schluter ditra xl.
Ditra over floor leveler.
We recommend unmodified thin set mortar on a floor that has been leveled with a self leveling product.
My initial thoughts include removing the existing finish wood floor then install ditra and modified thin set over the wood plank floor and lastly unmodified and ceramic tile over ditra.
I m interesting in hearing your thoughts before i begin my renovation.

Hello i poured self leveler in my bathroom yesterday over my heated floor wires.

For this project the ditra is being installed over radiant heating element embedded in self leveling mortar.
What is your recommendation to install ditra over existing flooring.
Ditra is a versatile product and can do more than just provide an uncoupling membrane.
Ditra and ditra xl were designed and tested for thin bed ceramic tile and natural stone applications.
The subfloor is 5 8 t g plywood joists 2x12 on 12 centers.
Any leveling of the subfloor must be done prior to the installation of the membrane.
I used nova plan easy plus.
I will be putting ditra on top of it and 12x24 marble over that.
My bathroom floor needs some floor leveler well a lot of leveler.
