Schluter DITRA-HEAT-DUO Underfloor Heating Kits

Schluter DITRA-HEAT-DUO is an electric underfloor heating system that incorporates a decoupling membrane and thermal break. The polyethylene matting has a cut-back stud structure, with a special 2mm thick anchoring fleece on the underside. This fleece allows the matting to adhere well to the adhesive, while also reducing impact sound with 13dB sound proofing reduction and enabling a faster heat up response. The Schluter DITRA HEAT heating cables are installed in the uncoupling mat in the areas of the floor that are to be heated, overall the thickness of the system is approximately 7.5mm. Due to the flexible control of temperatures and heating times provided by the Schluter floor thermostat, you can use Schluter DITRA HEAT TB to create warm tiles whenever and wherever you choose.

Suitable Uses For The Schluter DITRA HEAT System

Schluter DITRA-HEAT-DUO is designed as a supplementary heating system, for example for:

• Heating tiled floors in living rooms and bathrooms in addition to a traditional heating system (barefoot zones)
• Heating tiled walls in areas such as showers and wet rooms
• Buildings with very low heating energy needs (e.g. passive energy homes) as a backup
• Temporary heating of buildings that are only occupied occasionally, e.g. weekend homes

Because of the higher operating costs, the electric floor heating system is not suitable to serve as a full-scale heating system. In those cases, heating with Schluter-BEKOTEC-THERM is recommended.

Schluter DITRA-HEAT Kits consists of a complete range of uncoupling matting, heating cable, thermostat and sensors and can be purchased in complete box sets and as individual components for larger areas.

Each kit consists of the following components:

• Schluter DITRA HEAT TB Uncoupling Mats
• Schluter DITRA HEAT Heating Cables
• Schluter DITRA HEAT Thermostat Set

The sets include all required materials for installing your floor heating systems in a convenient package. All you have to purchase is tiles and adhesive.
