Vapor Management
The free space under the DITRA-HEAT and DITRA-HEAT-DUO mattings allow the substrate to breathe, while the material composition provides for
a very low water vapor permeance, which prevents any significant vapor intrusion in the tile assembly from below.
The result is the DITRA-HEAT and DITRA-HEAT-DUO effectively manage vapor and prevent damage to the tile covering as a result.
