MATTING


DROP IT LIKE IT’S HOT


A popular electrical underfloor heating system from Schlüter-Systems has been enhanced with exciting new features in its range. The matting not only prevents uncoupling but the system also benefits from touchscreen technology while providing a safer heat source.


Schlüter-DITRA-HEAT has become popular with specifers, installers and homeowners as the perfect all-in-one integrated solution for use under tiles and natural stone flooring.


The product provides time saving benefits when it comes to both installation and heat reaction time and its overall assembly uses less material therefore resulting in a lower overall height. Schlüter-DITRA-HEAT does all of this as well as provide five other key features, uncoupling, crack bridging, CE marked waterproofing, vapour pressure equalisation and load distribution; ensuring tile and stone coverings stay crack-free and as good as the day they were installed.


Its unique studded uncoupling membrane and loose cabling make it an installer’s dream, providing variation in size and layout plus extensive time saving benefits; whilst its low assembly height, of just 5.5mm, makes it versatile enough to suit any project including renovation, refurbishment and new build – it’s even suitable for installation over problematic substrates.


And now the system benefits from even more flexibility thanks to a new feature rich touchscreen digital thermostat

launched this year which allows the end user to have control over individual room temperatures.


The digital thermostat Schlüter-DITRA- HEAT-E-R includes full touchscreen technology and provides two floor sensors, with the option of air temperature, ensuring climate control is balanced at all times and at only 5.5 x 5.5cm, blends easily into its environment. The thermostat comes ready to run straight from the box.


Also new for 2015 is the innovative Schlüter-DITRA-HEAT-E-WS which provides electric heating within walls, offering a discrete, safer and more practical alternative to traditional towel rails and radiators.


Available in complete box sets and suitable for use under tile or stone, the system is designed and balanced for easy and discrete installation. Using low surface temperature technology it outputs at 136 or 200w per square metre, ensuring comfortable and safe heating with the added benefit of CE marked waterproofing, uncoupling and crack bridging within a single 5.5mm layer.


Under wall heating can be combined with underfloor heating and together


ensures greater heating outputs for large areas, as well as providing cleaner and more open plan living spaces. Furthermore, the matting and heating cable can be installed within a shower wall area for increased comfort and warmth as well as faster drying times.


For smaller rooms Schlüter-DITRA-HEAT can act as the primary heating source, allowing users to maximise the limited space available and make the room feel larger and more comfortable to inhabit.


Carl Stokes, Head of Marketing and Customer Service at Schlüter-Systems Ltd, commented: “We’re thrilled to offer a brand new thermostat for Schlüter- DITRA-HEAT which uses the latest technology to provide optimum and balanced heating control. Furthermore we’re proud to unveil our latest innovation, under wall heating which will ensure a safer heating environment in the home especially protecting both children and the elderly; whilst also providing greater freedom of design thanks to being tucked away behind walls.”


Full support and training is given to those that specify, install and use Schlüter-Systems products.
