MEASURING GUIDE Membrane is selected according to the size of the area to be tiled. Heating cable is selected according to the size of the area to be heated. Be sure to measure the heated area accurately. The allowable heated area is limited by the minimum required spacing from fixed elements such as: • Walls/partitions/fixed cabinets = 2" (50 mm) • Heat sources (baseboard heaters, fireplaces, forced air heating ducts, etc.
Step 1 Draw Room Draw the room on a sheet of paper. Step 2 Calculate Membrane Required Measure areas where the membrane will be installed. The total will tell you how much DITRA-HEAT or DITRA-HEAT-DUO membrane is required. Area Dimensions (Inches) Total A1 A2 A3 A4 Divide total by 144 to get measurement in ft 2 ÷ 144 Grand Total Membrane Step 3 Calculate Cable Size(s) Measure areas where the heating cable is to be installed. The total tells you the maximum DITRA-HEAT-E-HK heating cable amount.

Components DITRA-HEAT Membranes The DITRA-HEAT and DITRA-HEAT-DUO membranes are available in both mat and roll formats. They are each designed to secure the system heating cables and serve as a universal substrate for tile coverings. DITRA-HEAT-DUO also features an integrated thermal break designed to provide up to 70% faster heat-up times over concrete substrates and reduce impact sound transmission through floor-ceiling assemblies. DITRA-HEAT membrane: U.S.Pat. No. 8,950,141, and U.S. DES. PAT. No.
