Uncoupling membrane

Floor heating systems have well-known advantages, but the uncoupling membrane is game‑changing


An uncoupling membrane has become a must-have to make heating cable installation easier. Its key purpose is to cut down on movement between the various materials used in a complete installation. The uncoupling membrane compensates for horizontal movements up to 1/8 in. which in turn protects tiles from cracking and delamination. Best of all, installing the heating cable is a snap!
