Properties
Tiled or natural stone oors are not naturally watertight.
At joints, at the connection points of installed parts and at
wall edges in particular, water can seep below the ooring
surface and damage the underlying foundation. Outdoors, this
situation is even worse due to the effects of weather and frost.
When renovating older surfaces, cracks can also be present in
the suboor, making it impossible to install a new, watertight
tiled surface without taking the corresponding correction
measures.
The DURABASE WP++ powerful composite sealing and
decoupling system helps to resolve these challenges.
The special triple-layer construction combines a seal with a
powerful decoupling effect and exceptional crack-bridging
properties. Thanks to these properties, WP++ is approved for
use in indoor areas for stress classication A "High moisture
load". The areas of application for WP++ are surfaces under
direct and indirect stress, in both public and private buildings,
in areas which are very frequently exposed to service or clean-
ing water, for example surrounding areas of swimming pools
and shower facilities. Outdoors, DURABASE WP++ meets the
specications of stress classication B0, which is required in
areas under direct and indirect stress, such as balconies and
terraces (not over used rooms).
Installation
Bond the DURABASE WP++ to the subsurface using exible
mortar. Then use exible mortar to lay the tiles onto the
DURABASE WP++ matting.
