Designed for electric underfloor heating systems
This membrane allows electric heating cables to be integrated directly into its fastening channels, making it easier to position and space them.
It is particularly suitable for radiant floor heating projects in bathrooms, kitchens, and other indoor spaces.
Its design allows heating cables to be installed in an organized manner before the flooring is laid.
Flooring protection and uncoupling
The uncoupling membrane creates an intermediate layer between the substrate and the flooring.
This design helps limit the transmission of certain substrate movements to ceramic or porcelain tiles, reducing stresses that could affect the flooring.
It is an attractive solution for heated floor installations in renovation and construction projects.
Water-resistant material
Made from a polymer material, this membrane offers excellent water resistance.
It is particularly suitable for rooms where moisture is common, including:
- Bathrooms
- Kitchens
- Laundry rooms
- Entrances
- Residential and commercial spaces
Important: To achieve a complete waterproofing system, seams, connections, perimeters, and penetrations must be treated according to the manufacturer's instructions. The membrane alone does not guarantee that the entire installation is waterproof.
Vapor and moisture management
The membrane structure includes channels designed to promote vapor management beneath the flooring.
This feature may help manage moisture coming from the substrate, depending on the installation conditions and system design.
Load resistance
Thanks to its structured design, this membrane is intended to support the loads encountered in suitable residential and commercial floor installations.
It provides a suitable base for installing ceramic or porcelain coverings when substrate requirements and recommended installation methods are followed.
Benefits of this floor heating membrane
- Simplified installation: Makes it easier to position electric heating cables.
- Uncoupling: Helps reduce the transfer of substrate movement to the covering.
- Water resistance: Material suitable for environments exposed to moisture.
- Vapor management: Structure designed to help manage moisture beneath the covering.
- Low profile: Only 5.6 mm thick for easy integration into the floor.
- Load resistance: Suitable for compliant residential and commercial installations.
- CSA certification: Product advertised as CSA-certified.
- Limited lifetime warranty: Protection against manufacturing defects.
Ideal for your renovation and construction projects
Whether you want to install an electric floor heating system in a bathroom, upgrade a kitchen, or complete a commercial project, this uncoupling membrane is a practical, durable solution.
Thanks to its design for heating cables, water resistance, and low profile, it helps create a well-organized floor heating installation beneath your ceramic and porcelain coverings.
